Happy Birthday Uncle Jimmy!

Merry Christmas everyone! We are so incredibly disappointed that we can't come see you this weekend, we were REALLY looking forward to it. It just breaks our hearts. We hope you have a wonderful time, and get to enjoy Seattle at Christmastime with all of the lights and snow. But stay warm!! It's -6 degrees F up here right now, with wind chill... ouch!

Enjoy these vids from this morning - Ainsley wanted to say hello. :)
