Christmas in New York

Melissa and I spent Christmas 2010 in Baldwinsville with her family.  Our trip got off to a rocky start and we left a day later than we planned due to some awesome planning on the part of Sky West (United Express) and one lady that was angrier than we wanted to be, but that's not a story for this happy blog.  Nevertheless we made it to Syracuse in time for Christmas Eve Services at St. Mary's.  After opening presents Christmas morning, we went over to the Grandparents Dubois' house for the day.  I think I even had the biggest wins with the scratch off tickets.  The day after Christmas we went to the Grandparents Luke's house for sledding and hanging out with the family.  Later on in the week we took care of some wedding planning stuff and met with Father Abe at St. Mary's.  We also had a chance to take out Will's snowmobiles for a ride around the field, and we finally remembered to pull out the camera so here are some pictures from that. 

 Also we went cross country skiing.  It's hard work (at least for me) as you can see from the picture. 

 This is the field across from Melissa's parent's house.  We rode around it and down towards the river that is west of the fields. 

 Melissa really knows how to tear it up riding the 'biles around the fields. 

 This is down by the river. 

 Here is Will streaking across the field.  I couldn't keep up. 

Yea! Christmas Tree.
