Santa Claus Comes Tonight

Santa Claus came to Nana's tonight. I was a little nervous at first, but Santa was SUPER nice, and his suit was soft like a blankey.

My cousins and I all got to sit on Santa's lap.

Santa said I'm on the "nice list" so I gave him a little peck on the cheek.

I'm so excited to get my pencils and American Girl doll tomorrow morning!

Holiday Cheer

My drawings have taken on a holiday flair the past couple of weeks.

Sugar Plum Fairy for Aunt Carol in Montana. When my mom asked if I was going to make a drawing for all the aunts and cousins in Montana I said, "No, that's too many. Just Carol."

Letter to Santa

Here's my Santa letter this year.

I dropped the letter in the Macy's Santa Mailbox. "CHEEEEEEESE!!!!"

I hope this works!

Helloooo North Pole!

Gingerbread House

Here's my annual gingerbread house. Mommy and I worked together and created this lovely little cottage.

Then the abominable snowman came and started the demolition process.

I hope he saves some for me.

So delicious!

The Lights of Christmas

Last night, we went and saw "The Lights of Christmas" display at Warm Beach.

I held this big guy's hand.

We saw Baby Jesus.

And jumped right in this adorable gingerbread photo op.

Gramma and Poppy got into the posing fun.

Every person in Snohomish county was standing in line for a donut!

Party for Santa

My dance class performed "Party for Santa" at our dance recital this afternoon. Click play to see the vid!

Snowflake Lane

Gramma, Mommy, and I went to Snowflake Lane tonight. We started with a hot chocolate toast. Cheers!

How much do I love hot chocolate? A LOT!!!!

A beautiful, purple snow princess gave me hug.

And so did Rudolph.

We had a front row seat for one of the drummers. HOLY EARPLUGS.

And then the snowflakes started falling. Soooo magical!

Five and Fabulous

I'm turning the Fabulous 5 soon, so today we celebrated with a Little Mermaid party. I'm practicing my "5".

We played Stick the Flower on Ariel's Head (ala "Pin the Tail on the Donkey.")

Here are some of my fabulous friends.

Getting ready to blow out my 5 candle.

Playing with all the fabulous presents!

Even the big boys are fabulous!

Black Friday. 5:30 PM.

Thanksgiving

We had a very quiet Thanksgiving this year. I read some stories with Daddy.

Then I ate some apps before dinner at Gramma's house.

I set the table.

And played wii with Poppy.

Daddy's going to be so proud of my golf swing!

While we ate our dinner, the deer came into the yard and ate some apples on the ground for their dinner. Good thing Uncle Eric lives in Montana, or these deer would be HIS dinner!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Divine Design

We're changing my room around a bit....

I got new bunk beds, hooray! All the better to play Rapunzel from the top bunk. Mommy thinks making the beds is her new cardio.

Love, love, love my new bed!

To Eat or Not to Eat...

that is the question.

I'll Get You, My Pretty!!!

I was a little witch for Halloween this year. Here's me practicing my witchy laugh...

I got a bunch 'o loot trick-or-treating at Daddy's office.

We had a class party at school.

My friends came over for dinner and trick-or-treating in the neighborhood.

We saw some spooky decorations!

This guy sang, "Love Potion Number Nine" as we stepped onto his porch.

I let Daddy raid my bucket.

I kept saying, "This is the best Halloween EVER!!!"

Snuggling with my BFF at the end of the night as we conquer our sugar high.

Happy Halloween!
