It's the day we run out of ways to entertain Rachel and end up with this.

Houston we have lift off
With Mike having to work in Palm Springs a few days I braved a 3 hour flight with Rachel and Ashley- Alone! It was actually okay. Ashley's not quite the flier Rachel is and now that Rachel has to sit in her own seat she's wanting to be in my lap because Ashley is. All in all no passengers complained, I actually got lots of help on the way there from passengers willing to hold Ashley and from the stewardess on the way home who was a new mom (at the young age of 42!) We were also fortunate to be on a flight that had the tv's in seat so I could turn on Nick Jr and let Rachel be entertained, best 6 bucks ever.
We had a fun week with Grandma Donna, Pop pop, Auntie Brooke and Uncle Will. We went to the zoo (which is becoming tradition), took a motorcycle ride, had lunch at the Rain Forest Cafe, and hung out enjoying the sunny 70* weather while Vegas was chilly and rainy. Enjoy the pics from our trip.

Christmas Eve at Keith and Wendy's
And what a Merry Christmas Eve it was. We gathered at the Anderson home base with parents, siblings, and kin to celebrate Christmas Eve! The night that Santa Claws visits out homes to remind us that nothing says "Let's celebrate the birth of our Lord" like a giant pink bunny rabbit costume or a nice pair of warm socks. We had a very pleasant evening with the whole family together for the winter holiday for the first time since I can't remember when (2006? I dunno). We listened to the musical proficiencies of Wendy and Jacob, sang carols, read the nativity story and blissfully mixed the feel-good holiday classics with lovely songs of Christ.
We got the girls all dolled up for the occasion
Earlier in the day, we went up to Mount Charleston with our friends, Jesse and Sarah Owen, to do some sledding. We found a great hill with some fun bumps.
Shelly had Ashley all bundled up, and except for a minor crash on the big hill, the little one had a great time!
I performed my fatherly duty and taught Rachel the proper method of making and throwing a snowball which, as you can see below, she quickly mastered. She also took right to the concept of "Throw snow at Mommy" and embraced it fully.
Later we taught her to make snow angels

Girls just wanna have fun
After taking the family Christmas photo I decided it was time to teach Rachel how to make faces.
