Berkeley's First Christmas

We spent your first Christmas in Waldport, Oregon on the coast. We rented a big house and all your cousins, aunties, uncles, and grandma and grandpa borowicz spent 5 days together for the holiday. It was a wonderful time together. The weather was amazing -- sand, wind, rain, storms and big waves. It was so much fun to watch the weather from inside our little house. Papa and I got to go running since there were so many people to watch you.

Christmas was fun. Your cousins are at a wonderful age and so fun to watch open presents.

You received a rainbow stacker from Santa as well as 4 rattles. Logan, Zach and Joshua gave you a set of wooden rainbow stacking bowls which you played with for hours and hours. You received a baby doll, Peppa, from Grandma and Grandpa and a set of amber teething beads.

You had the most fun chewing on paper and bows and watching all your cousins play with their toys.


We spent Christmas afternoon playing on the beach. We got a wonderfull backpack with a little seat in it for you from Grandma and Grandpa Borowicz. We lugged you around on the beach in it and within no time you were fast asleep. You LOVE being outisde, looking around, and breathing good fresh air. Like mother like daughter!

We spent the day after Christmas exploring the aquarium at Newport and eating some amazing food prepared for us by Uncle Jimmy and Aunt Ginny. A wonderful Christmas vacation!

It didn't end there though. We had a little mountain of gifts for you to unwrap when we got home. You had already unwrapped a telephone from Grandma and Grandpa Cox and a talking bunny from the Davis family. You also recieved a colorful little caterpillar, some wonderful books, and some darling clothes and socks from Grandma and Grandpa Cox. You are a very lucky girl to have such wonderful grandparents!
