The Holidays

Happy New Year everyone!  I am Finally getting around to blogging our holidays!  We had a wonderful Christmas this year!  Uncle Wyatt came out to visit from Dec 22-26, we hung out with friends, and had a wonderful visit from Santa Claus!


I'll start off with our visit to see Santa at the mall.  Last year, Molly was NOT a fan of the big guy, but this year, leading up to our visit, she aways seemed so excited to talk about him, see his pictures in books or on TV.  She even said she wanted Santa to bring her a "princess tent" (where do kids get these ideas from!)  So we got her dressed up in her Christmas dress, headed to the mall, and sure enough not a tear was shed!  She didn't smile at all throughout the visit, but she was able to get out a "hi"  tell him she wanted the princess tent,and a "bye" inbetween pictures too! So it was a success!!!






Moving on....Christmas Eve/Day was  lot of fun!  We made sure to leave cookies out for Santa, and in the morning Molly came down to lots of new toys!  I cooked Christmas dinner for our friends the Beals, and it turned out great!  We had a nice prime rib, creamed corn, green bean casserole, and homemade mashed potatoes!  it was delicious!
