The kids loved the Christmas Tree even more this year. They had to check out the ornaments every day when they woke up and again when they got home from school.

Visiting Santa
We ended up visiting Santa twice. The first time was at the mall, where I paid in advance and had a set appointment. We had discussed Santa and that the kids would sit with him and tell him what they wanted for Christmas. They were all about it.
But once Charlie saw Santa it was a no go. There was NO WAY he was going to talk to this man. We tried every trick in the book, but none worked. And when we said that Santa wouldn't bring him the Inquisitor light saber he wanted, Charlie said fine - he didn't want it anyway. So those pictures were just of Rosie.
But a few weeks later we went to Bass Pro Shop - where the picture is free - and gave it a try again. Charlie was in a great mood and was chatty with the Big Man. And made sure he know about the Inquisitor light saber! We don't know what made a difference, but we are glad to get our yearly picture with Santa.

Big Ol' Boo Boo
If you noticed the band aid on Rosie's head in the last post, here's why.
She accidentally did a cartwheel off the back steps and onto the concrete patio. The thump when she hit was terrifying, and the abrasion and bump were huge. But in the end she was fine.

Marc the Artist
Rosie asks me to draw Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, she gets a stick figure deer with a big nose. She asks Marc to draw it, and this is what she gets. On one of those magnetic drawing boards!

This Land is My Land
I had a business trip to San Francisco and had a window seat. It was amazing to watch America as I flew from one coast to the other.
