The Holiday Season on Friday, December 3, 2010

I have been caught up in the holiday season! It all started last Thursday on a lovely Thanksgiving day. I spent the day at my grandparents doing one of my favorite things, 'ordering' Nanny to play with me. My mom thinks I am too demanding, but Nanny assures us that she loves it. She did take a few breaks to put together a wonderful Thanksgiving meal! The next day, I headed to the beach to catch up with the other side of the family and some Thanksgiving leftovers. We went to OC's Winterfest--first stopping at Candy Kitchen and then on to see the lights, visit with Santa, and drink the obligatory hot chocolate. This all passed in a blink as I just love being in the presence of all of my cousins! If that was not enough holiday cheer, this week we took the train to NYC. The big highlights of the trip were the train ride, especially when Moppy and Pop boarded in Wilmington, and then Times Square. Times Square boasts the LOTS of lights, "the words", and the big "disco ball" hanging very high on a skyscaper ready for New Year's Eve. And, I close with one more adventure of the week, a trip to see the most amazing Santa ever. You can't help but want to get in his lap and smile!
