Christmas Eve Hike to Eternal Flame...

Today was warm :)  We picked up Uncle Andy from the airport this morning and then this afternoon we all went hiking to the "Eternal Flame!"

Here are some pictures:

Our feet all got really wet and it was pretty fun to slide in the snow that was still there.  I think Andy and Kate were the only two that didn't fall in the water at some point.  It was such a beautiful hike!

Now it's time for Pixie presents......

"Is it REALLY Christmas next week?"

.. that's what Kate asked me this morning.  Yes it is next week- whew we have been doing lots of fun things this month.  

Here are lots of pictures:
