Here's the second post from our Christmas in Steamboat. (Click on 2009 at the right for the first one) We had a wonderful time as we always do in Steamboat. Snow, fun, family, good food & drinks and skiing...what more could you ask for. Happy New Year to everyone! Merry Christmas to all! Here's my pretty velvet Christmas dress that my stylist (Grandma) chose for me. Mommy complimented the ensemble with appropriate Mary Jane shoes.

Tons of new toys....and what do I play with? Rocks and plastic cups. Go figure; I'm a baby.

Harrison asked Santa for extra bones....he got his wish.

I DO NOT LIKE THIS MAN! GET ME OFF OF HIS LAP....NOW!

When we got home from church, Daddy messed up my hair! But look!....I have hair finally.

Grandpa, Grandma & Me. We're best buds.

Family Portrait on Christmas Eve.

Here's Daddy and I before we went to Mass on Christmas Eve.

On December 23rd, the final trials for the Olympics were held in Steamboat. I'd couldn't go because they were too far up the mountain. BUT....afterwards, I went to the awards ceremony and my FIRST Rock concert. The Colorado band, Big Head Todd & The Monsters performed at the base of the mountain. They were awesome. However it was snowing pretty hard by then so I didn't stay long. But it was fun. 2,000 people rockin' out, babies like me everywhere,

tons of doggies andlots of fun for everyone.

This pink hat was made just for me by a store in Steamboat. Some lady looked at me and called me "Cindy Lou Who....of Whoville." Who's Cindy Lou Who? I'm Allie!

In the afternoons, I'd walk over to the base of the mountain with either Grandma or Mommy and we'd meet the others for a little apres ski action. Harrison the dog would always come with.

Here I am in Uncle Jeff's lap.

I LOOOVVVVVVE my Grandpa! Here's Grandma and I discussing the merits of wearing a diaper...or not! Nakie is one of my favorite times of the day. You just run around without clothes on and everybody laughs.
