Christmas was pretty fabulous this year. We stayed home and had a quiet little Christmas Eve. We made waffles, opened up a few presents, and tracked Santa on the internet. Christmas morning we opened gifts then headed to Seattle for a few days. It seemed to be more relaxing than the past few years.
The kids and I do a gingerbread house every year. Why? I don't know. It makes a huge mess and it takes up all kind of space in an all ready cluttered kitchen. But we have a good time and it is festive so we do it.
Santa at the Boise Mall on our way home from Thanksgiving. Sage was mesmerised. She is always amazed at our good fortune of being at the same mall as him, sometimes in Seattle, sometimes in Idaho and sometimes at home. Crazy how that happens.
Naughty or nice??? Hayden had a lot of explaining to do. Marlee is just banking on the fact that she is so cute, the old guy wouldn't be able to resist bringing her everything she wants.
Hayden loves just about all fruit. Instead of an orange in the toe of his stocking, he found a pomegranate. He was so excited, said it was one of his favorite gifts...yeah, that is a bike in the background, he was more excited about the dumb fruit.
Favorite Gifts:
Dad-Double griddle and Guitar hero
Mom-Wii Fit and a massage
Hayden-Bike, Pomegranate, maybe Shaun White snowboarding game
Sage-Bathrobe and BFC Inc Doll Kaitlin
Marlee-Dress up dress box, monkey slippers
