Our Christmas

We sure had fun with Leo around this Christmas.  Kids really do make Christmas time more special.  We drove him practically across the city one evening to see an incredible neighborhood all lit up with beautiful Christmas lights.  While slowly making our way up the street, we even saw a car decorated and transformed into a sleigh coming towards us and Santa was in the sleigh!!  He "HO HO HO'd" at us as he went by.  That was so exciting for us.  Then Guillermo and Leo walked the street while I slowly drove alongside them.  When we got to the end, we turned around to do it one more time and were amazed to see behind us a sports car totally lit up with lights.  We tried to go as slow as possible so it would pass us up, but it was also content to just inch along with us.  Did not get pictures of either the sleigh with Santa or the sports car.  Too wrapped up in the moment.

We decorated a gingerbread house.

Made a gumdrop tree

Hung around under the tree a few times

Christmas morning

The next day we went to a nearby parking lot so Leo could run his new remote control car.

Just some scenes from around the house.

We ordered this poinsettia from Costco at the beginning of December.  I had NO idea it would be this big.  The only place it really looked good was on the floor because that way you could see the blooms.  When it was on a table, all you could really see were the leaves.

We loved how our lights looked on the porch
