New Family, new traditions

Mommy & Daddy bundled us up and told us they were taking us somewhere special...Both Bellah and I had no idea what they had in store, but it didn't matter...we knew what ever it was it was sure to be a treat!
We wound up at this wonderful destination called, Winterhaven. Daddy told us to hold on to our hats because we were in store for lots of fun and excitement! Boy was he right, this place called, Winterhaven was decorated with tons of different Christmas lights, people were singing Christmas carols and Mommy made a batch of yummy hot chocolate!
During our walk Mommy and Daddy told us about how visiting this place has been a Tucson tradition for many families for over 50 years. Mommy and Daddy have been coming here together for the past two years and now visiting here will be our family tradition.
Grandma told Bellah about another Christmas tradition, "kissing under the mistletoe". She warned both Bellah and I(quite adamantly) to stay far away from the mistletoe. She mentioned something about how it would stunt our growth or something like that. Bellah and I both decided we wouldn't take any chances! Don't worry Grandma, we promise (wink, wink) to stay far away from the tradition of, "kissing under the mistletoe".
This house was decorated with lots of lights and cute winter characters. There was a train taking gifts to all the good little girls and boys; Bellah and I are pretty sure we made the list this year!

Cousin Mason and Tia Michelle came with us to visit Winterhaven. It was so much fun!


Mommy held me for some of our walk. She held Bellah too, but I don't think we got a picture of that!

This house won the, "mailman's award" because it had the best decorated mailbox. It was really a sight to see!


We decided next year, we may take the mule drawn carriage (and possibly start another tradition).

Happy Holidays to all our friends and family! We love you!
