The Holidays - 2009

Jackson and I arrived in Spokane just before Thanksgiving. We spent nearly 4 weeks with my family and enjoyed every minute! We ended up taking loads of video because my mom got a new FlipVideo camera. So, in lieu of photos, here's a video with clips from our time in Spokane.

An extra treat for Jackson in Spokane was getting to hang with his new friend, Leo, the son of Mommy's friend of 25 years!

When our time was up, Grandpa Jack and Grandma Gena drove us to Seattle to meet up with Daddy! We were only in Seattle for a couple of days, so we got together for a dinner and quick Christmas celebration with Grandpa Jim and Uncle Dylan.Silly Grandpa Jim!All the Walker Boys...Aren't they handsome :)Next, we were off to Bellingham to Grandma Kathy's house for Christmas. Grandma Kathy's house was so festive. Her tree was beautiful and VERY interesting for Jackson.Here is Jackson opening his first of MANY Christmas presents from Grandma Kathy.
I think he likes it! (Actually, I know he likes it...he plays with it all the time these days.)And here he's sporting some of his new duds (sweater and hat) from Liz. Hand knit and everything!And now, a present from Aunt Sam. Waiting patiently for it to come out of the packaging...And...whoopie...it's a hit!
We all enjoyed Christmas. Even Baxter (the 19 year old cat). He's digging into his cat nip treat! Jackson really enjoyed his time with all the family. And he was SPOILED with gifts! What a Merry Christmas for us all!
