Merry Christmas!

We drove back to Texas the Thursday before Christmas. Gran, Laylay and Skip followed us to spend Christmas at our house. They stayed through the weekend and had to leave Monday. We loved having them and hated to see them leave.

Strawberry ice cream for breakfast? Why not, it's Christmas Eve!

Gran, Laylay and Skip's Christmas present from us was lunch at Cafe Malaga. Yummy yummy!
Skip was brave and let me order for us. Gran and Laylay had salads. Landry and Brad shared some hummus and chicken.




Landry was very much in the Christmas spirit.




A little hot chocolate while getting ready for Santa to come.

Cookies for Santa: check

Reindeer food: check

Letter to Santa: in the process

Almost finished. She only asked Santa for 2 things: A knight outfit and a castle. Brad and I wondered if Santa would come through on Landry's requests.

Even Tuff was in the Christmas spirit.

Christmas morning.

The knight outfit...

and the castle!!! Santa came through afterall.

Moving on to the stocking.

Hello Kitty lotion and clips.

Anything else in there? Santa left 2 charms for Landry's bracelet in the bottom of the stocking. Good ole' Santa.

Presents from Laylay and Daddy and Mommy.

A reversible Batgirl/Spidergirl cape. Woohoo!

When Landry was smaller she had a Supergirl shirt she loved. Around Thansgiving she started asking where it was and if she could wear it. Finding another Supergirl shirt: mission possible (thank goodness).

Skip and Landry hard at work building a lincoln log cabin.

After a fun filled Christmas morning Landry decided she wanted to relax in her room. Now she's listening to her own cds on her very own boombox. She's growing, growing growing...sigh.
