Merry Christmas

We had a very fun holiday season, including a trip to Disney World (future blog post).  Koopa Hawka (our elf) brought a Lego advent calendar on Dec 1st to start off the season.  We didn't cross everything of our to do list, but we managed to bake cookies, see lights, watch some classic Christmas movies and visit Santa. Danny was bummed about no white Christmas, just a little bit of snow a few days before.  The kids learned some new carols, Maura's favorite is Angels Sing (Hark the Herald Angels Sing), and they rediscovered their love of candy canes.

Danny got the Millennium Falcon and smelly markers from Santa

Maura got a fluffy unicorn and Elsa dress from Santa.  She wore it the rest of the day, glitter bombing Grandma and Grandpa's house
