Christmas at the Johansons'

I spent Christmas at Andria's and Dave's home in Colorado Springs.  Nick and Elaine also flew out. Gail remained in warm San Diego enjoying festivities with her mom and sister.

 The first day, I went with Dave and the kids for a little hike at Garden of the Gods.  Back seat bedlam with Yukon, the dog.

 Nora was first to conquer this boulder.

 More climbing.

 Nick arrived the next day, and was highly anticipated for his video gaming, and baking skills.

Susanna threw on this outfit - what a character!  Gail loves this photo!

Nora shows off her new trombone skills, though Susanna will not be upstaged.

 Christmas morning popover breakfast.

 The popover master!

 I think Soren ate four of the delicacies!

The princess and her golden crown.

Later, Andria and I walked Yukon despite freezing temperatures and very strong winds.  Winds were clocked at 108 mph just outside of Denver!
