Merry Christmas

Out of Gas ...

This is what happens when you go go go ...

Dear Santa ...

Santa: "Well hello there. What's your name?"

Meghan: blank stare

Mommy: "Say my name is Meghan, Santa"

Santa: "Hello Meghan. Have you been a good girl this year?"

Meghan: blank stare

Mommy: "Say yes I have Santa."

Santa: What would you like Santa to bring you for Christmas this year?"

Meghan (whispers): "A candy cane please."

Mommy: laughing ... (note the candy cane in the picture)

Decorating the Tree

After bringing the Christmas tree up from the basement, it took me a couple days to get the lights on. In the meantime, Meghan was nice enough to decorate it for us. She used everything she could find. First she put on a broken set of play pearls, then some paper strips left over from a craft. Next she added a few things from her toy bin: her lunch pail, Halloween lantern, binoculars, safari hat, a paper hat she made for Thanksgiving, and a couple purses. When she ran out of toys, I took pity on her and let her put on some of the plastic balls I was using as decoration in a crystal bowl.

Every so often we do get a picture where
she does look like her mommy!
