Meryl started sneezing yesterday, so she stayed home today from school, got tested (she’s one week from being fully vaccinated!), and found herself performing ‘Show Yourself.’ Lucky me, I got to play the role of Elsa’s Mom and resurrect my French braiding skills (this time traveling around her head)…to which she then unravelled, because that’s what Elsa does:)
(She’ll be at school tomorrow.)
We joined (rather crashed) our neighbor Melody’s marshmallow wreath making party and made it out with an actual creation!
Holmes ate approximately 42,567 marshmallows and Meryl closed out with about 35,963 reaching her belly. Us parents…we survived:)
So much for dinner!
Frank and Holmes went to a big Lego exhibit in town, fun times!
They still exist! They look the same. And they’re absolutely great!
And to celebrate, we all tried the novel concept of eating dinner out at a restaurant…which literally meant eating outside at a restaurant in the cold, wind, and rain. We did it! Happy Birthday, Lola!
Gaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
This kid. We were leaving and Holmes ran up to Santa to give him one last hug:) Surprised even Santa!
Nutcracker ‘light’ so to speak, but perfect all the same. Short and oh so sweet!
Meryl was in awe of just being in the aura of the Nutcracker ballet dancers. We stayed to the very, very end, asked all the questions, and stared at alllll the sparkles.
All the holiday spirit! (Allison, we’re ready for your recital! Video works great.)
