Three Christmasses

We are in Hillsboro, Oregon, right now, staying with Nana and Boopa and enjoying new baby cousin Sawyer. Caden and Finn are both *finally* getting over their colds (in Finn's case, an ear infection that sent him and Dada to the urgent care clinic the day after Christmas), and we just had a delicious dinner of black cod. Yesterday, we celebrated the third of our three Christmasses, with the Brackens and Probsts.




But, we should start at the beginning, with Christmas #1, at home in Irvine. A video clip of the boys coming downstairs on Christmas morning was featured in the previous post. Here are a few more images of the morning's activities. 




A 10:30 shuttle took us to LAX for our flight north to Portland. 


We met up with Auntie Sally at PDX and drove down to Corvallis, where we "knocked" on Ama and Adad's door by singing Christmas carols. Santa had visited at Ama and Adad's house, so stockings were waiting for everyone there, too. The next morning, we celebrated Christmas #2, exchanging and opening gifts from the Sorte side of the family. 




Other fun activities in Corvallis included archery, lunch at American Dream Pizza, a gathering with the extended Sorte family, and Ama's wonderful cooking. 







We spent an extra day in Corvallis to give Finn and Caden extra time to get better before heading up to Hillsboro on the 29th. That evening, we celebrated Christmas #3 and met baby cousin Sawyer for the first time.

Woo hoo! looks even more whirl-windy than ours :) If you have time, we can maybe schedule an archery date at trackers here! Owen is a huge fan!
