Finding Santa's gift!
Opening gifts with Daddy
Christmas Eve playtime
I like presents!!!
I love my new rocking horse Star (Star was the name of Mommy's rocking horse that rode for hours and hours when she was little...until the springs broke one day and threw Mommy off)
Family time
As a result of the incredible storm we just had in So. Cal, there is a heavy layer of snow on the Saddleback mountains right behind our house. This is the view from our balcony upstairs. It's the first time I've ever seen this since we've lived here so it's very exciting! On the other side of our house (from our bedroom), there is a clear ocean view today, which we normally only get when it rains. Hey, even though it's many miles away, it's still an ocean view to me :)
Was it the fluffy white beard? Or perhaps the strange hat? Either way, Grace wasn't having it. She didn't like Santa with mommy on his lap so we thought we'd throw daddy into the mix, which clearly didn't help - as illustrated below. Oh well, she'll like him when she realizes he brings her toys.
