Christmastime is here

It's official. December is here, it's getting cooler, and Gymboree had a holiday party last night with Santa in attendance. The kids got to run around and play, do crafts with glue and eat cookies with icing and sprinkles - all in their Christmas-y best. Good times.

Here are some photos of Emma and her friends at the party.

You can see all the photos on our online photo album here. Emma's friend, Augie, was wearing a tie. You can see him in the last picture above on the very right side of the photo. So cute. Another friend was wearing a little sweater and black suit coat. Adorable.

Emma wanted nothing to do with Santa. Last year she had no problem with him, but this year not so much. So there may be no photo of Emma with Santa this year, but what can you do? We're not going to force her to sit on his lap and scream just so we can have a photo.

We have lots of parties and get-togethers to go to this month. We're going to be partied out by the time Christmas rolls around; but at least we have friends this year. Last year at this time, we had just moved out here and didn't know anyone. We're so blessed that we've made such good friends in such a short amount of time.

That's all for now. More later.

Always remember: It is a little scary that he knows when you're sleeping and awake. Some people would call that a stalker.
