Are Squinkies popular in your house? 

Mia is so lucky that her Grandparents know what Squinkies are!  They were a hit in our house come Christmas morning.  We had originally thought we would be in Seattle on Christmas morning, but at the last minute, we changed our plans and decided to take it easy and leave later on Christmas day to start our drive.  We woke up to this...

This was the year for Zoe and things to snuggle with.  She loves baby dolls more than Mia ever did.

Yummy!  Grandma Jo sent some of her homemade apple butter. ;)

 Zoe tore into the presents this year...it didn't take her long to figure out what was inside.  :)

And...for the final night, Krinkle Boy (our Elf on the Shelf) left a note for Mia and Zoe reminding them the true meaning of Christmas and thanking them for such a fun holiday season.  He also asked if he could go to Seattle sometime!  Mia giggled.

The best gift didn't come from Santa this year, it's the gift of new front doors!  It's amazing what a little face lift will do for your 70's home.  :)  THANK YOU, TRAVIS!  Like usual, we wonder why we waited so long to get them installed.
