Tree is on the curb. Needles are vacuumed. Decorations are stashed in the garage. We are coming down off of a full month of Christmassing, culminating in an awesome week-long visit from my parents, brothers and sister. Our holiday in photos:
The warm-up: Yammy and the kids make cookies.
Si gets into it.
The standard outfit for the week: The indescribable dress that 'Santa' brought her when he visited our small-group Christmas party (umm...thanks, Chrissy); Hawaiian dress; Supergirl wristband; Iowa State Cyclones socks; "Sparkle Shoes". Missing from this photo: wings. It's really something to behold.
Christmas Eve
After leaving milk & cookies, Mils checks to see if Santa is going to make it down the chimney alright.
Christmas Morning: helping Uncle Monkey with his new book.
A croissant break.
Tea Party for four.
Post-Christmas bliss: loving all their new toys, including the easel and fancy dancing skirt.
Sweet girl.
Our San Diego tradition: Christmas Brunch at the Hotel Del Coronado. Behind us is an ice-skating rink...on the beach!
A walk on the beach after brunch.
Sometimes I talk about Si's 'death roll' escape trick he uses to get out of my grasp. Here it is in action.
Saturday morning at the farmer's market: Mils with her Uncles.
My love.

How fun! Looks like you guys had such a great time! Mils and Mads are so alike. We have the same kinds of outfits at our house! Love the ISU socks! Go Cyclones!
