Boyd's Bears

So we finally made our trip out to Boyd's Bears Country in Gettysburg to take family Christmas picture. I love going to that store at Christmas time. It looks and feels so warm and cozy. Navie loves to run around and look at all the cute bears that they have (which make getting pictures sort of hard). This year we weren't able to get a lot of pictures because Navie was so distracted but we will make due with what we did get.

I love it when they have the lard fireplace lit. It is just so beautiful and really gets me in the Christmas spirit.

It's always neat to see the HUGE Christmas tree. The theme this year was "Santa's Workshop".

I love this picture but Navie wasn't smiling. It was kind of hard to get her to smile since there wasn't anyone behind the camera to smile at : )

So this is the one that will go in our Christmas card. We finally got Navie to smile.

Navie had to walk around and collect as many bears as she could.

This picture would have been really cute but of course Navie didn't want to smile. She was pretty good considering she was surrounded by toys. At least she stayed right with us and didn't run away.

It was nice to have a quick picture of just Cris and I. And if you see behind us, Navie is staying nice a close but still keeping herself entertained. I love that little girl!

So over all I would say that it was a successful trip. We didn't get as many pictures as last year but at least we got one for the Christmas card. I know Navie always enjoys going to the "bear store". Navie and I will be making another trip out there in a week or two for the annual Chick grandkids' trip. Its a nice way to start off the Christmas season : )
