Morning Glory

New Year's Day. We awoke to beautiful mountain views and homemade waffles with strawberries and whipped cream. The combined powers of the Harding/Graf women produced a delicious breakfast. We also successfully blew the circuits about five times with the combined powers our waffle irons, mixers, skillets and hot cocoa makers, but finally found a plug-to-outlet-to-wall ratio that worked. It was a great way to start off the new year, with the people we love most: our family.

Please no one get mad at me for posting pictures of you in all your morning glory. I think you are all handsome and beautiful and I love you.

I think my parents are getting baby-hungry. My mom loved watching Mollie while Lynsie and kids played in the snow. Mollie even watched a little football with my dad. :) Good thing Kyle and Michelle are having a little one this summer. Whew! Pressure's off! ;)




Don't you just love her eyes? I love this little girl.



After breakfast Ryan suited up for his turn at sledding. I snuck out for a few pictures. He and Chris were having a great time. I loved how Ryan refused to try to walk up the hill at first, and waited for his dad to pick him up and carry him back to the top. So cute. Bundled up in his winter clothes and looking like a brown marshmallow, he reminded me of Randy in his snow suit in A Christmas Story.
