Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas
Christmas this year was everything we could have wanted. We had a quick and early Christmas morning at our apartment—Elle only had fifteen minutes with her gifts from Santa Clause—and then it was off to the airport to fly to Idaho. Elle was ecstatic about the fact of getting to have a white Christmas, as was I. And once in Idaho, we had a lot of fun celebrating the holiday season with family. Elle could not get enough of the snow; her favorite part was eating it. She ate, and ate, and ate. Quite cute I must say. All in all, it was a wonderful Christmas with everything we could have wanted, and more.

'Twas the Night Before Christmas
Our Christmas Eve this year was full and fun. It seemed as though we did not have a minute of rest; there were numerous errands to run, people to visit, presents to wrap, and dinner to eat. All of which, were undeniably fun.
Elle has really gotten into the Christmas spirit, and cannot seem to get enough of anything that has to do with Christmas. She loves the music, the decorations, the sweets, and naturally, the presents. It will be extremely enjoyable to see her tomorrow morning for Christmas. I don’t think she has quite grasped what is in store for her when she awakens. However, it will not take her long to understand the amusement, pleasure, and fun that accompanies Christmas.

Chugga Chugga Choo Choo
Today we went to Tilden Park to ride the steam trains. The trains ran through the beautiful scenery of the East Bay. Though it was cold, we had a wonderful time riding the trains, smelling the fresh air, and enjoying the company of friends.

Cookies
My friends Allysa and Amy invited Elle and I over to make Christmas cookies with them. It was extremely fun, and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. But who wouldn’t enjoy cookie dough and frosting?
