It's begining to look a lot like Christmas here. We have been baking cookies, wrapping up shopping, and watching Christmas movies/shows over the last few days. Yesterday Lily and I baked cookies for the Christmas Eve dinner we are hosting. We had planned to have dinner with some good friends of ours who live nearby and found out earlier this week that we will be having more guests than we thought for dinner. A group of lucky guys in Varun's squadron got a Christmas surprise by getting to come home a month early from deployment. They arrived late last night and a few had no time to arrange travel home for the holidays so we extended our invite to them. We thought we would have a quiet Christmas Eve since we were not going to be around family, but turns out that we will be having 8 other people spending the evening at our place.
Lily had so much decorating AND eating the sugar cookies.

Jacob was relaxing in the living room as we baked.
We woke this morning to another surprise...snow! A few days ago there was talk of 1-3 inches of snow hitting the Denver area. Usually when they call for snow in Denver, we rarely get any or not nearly as much as predicted. We were surprised to wake up to about 5 inches of snow this morning. Varun took Lily out to play this morning after shoveling the driveway, but she was not too happy with the snow. We thought that she would love the snow this year, but she has not liked it at all so far.
Liliana was not happy after sledding down the street with Varun.
She was much happier cuddling on the couch afterwards with Julia.
