We had actual kids with us for the Christmas holiday. Our Utah family escaped all that Western coldness and spent about ten days with us here in Florida.
The girls baked cookies with Great-MomMom, did a lot of swimming, paper-chain making, jump-roping, Lego-building - such good girls, fun and smart and creative and only occasionally dramatic. We had a great time.
The Magic Kingdom was lovely as usual, but crowded of course.
Evie, taking time out from rope jumping to study the sand hill cranes strolling through the yard.
Then taking a ride with Grandpa in the old truck.
Just wanted to post this little re-cap of our holidays on this last evening of 2013. It's nearly 9:00 pm and already fireworks (and firearms) have been booming around the neighborhood. I'm heading to Mrs. White's party. --cds
