A little holiday review.

Once again I find myself a bit behind, so let's begin our latest game of Catch-Up with a quick look back at Christmas.  It all began with an early visit from Santa.  (He's kind enough to show up at our house before we leave town for the holidays.  I need to remember to send him a gift basket.) He stuffed the stockings, and arranged all the toys and books by the fireplace, despite the fact that we forgot to leave him a plate of cookies.  (Perhaps a gift basket, and a nice card...)


Ava was pretty pleased.


Particularly with the breakfast selection.


Then, in the usual grand tradition, we packed up a car full of gifts - along with everything Ava owns - and headed for Iowa. 

Ava helped Grandma bake (ok, eat) the cookies...



Somehow managed to swipe Santa's hat. (Looks better on her anyway.)


And opened one of the biggest piles of presents I've ever seen. (Not all of them necessarily hers...)


But the best part, as always, was getting to spend the holidays with her cousins. 




Hope you're Christmas was as wonderful as ours!
