Christmas Adventures 2009

Zoo Lights at Pt. Defiance

2 years in a row we have made the trip to Tacoma to see the lights at Pt. Defiance and this was also the second year Josh took us to Duke's on the waterfront for dinner before hand. It was a fun family date night.

Hannukah at Aunt Kara and Uncle Josh's in Seattle

Christmas Ship 2009 with Aunt Kara, Uncle Josh, and cousin Margaret

Uncle Josh and Margaret Rose on the ship. Thanks to Aunt Kara we get to go on this ship because she usually works for company. It is a treat and this was our second year!

Marisa sat and listened to Santa read a story on the way back to the dock. She sat up there all by herself,such a big girl.

Marisa and Margaret in the captain's chair. We are all bundled up because it was downright freezing when we went this year. We were lucky if the temp was in the teens.

Dad and Marisa all smiles for this adventure!
This was a fun night on board the Christmas Ship to help us start off our holiday season!
