Merry Christmas, Aunt Meg!

We had a chance to celebrate with Aunt Meg before she headed off to California to be with Leif, Marie and Chloe for Christmas. Although our original plans were to meet for breakfast, we ended up gathering over Thai food at our favorite restaurant. The food was delicious and we basically had the restaurant to ourselves.

On the way home, Grammy took us on a Christmas light tour. Mackenzie was thrilled by all the different lights. She ooh'ed and squealed through out the ride.

After scoping out the lights, we headed back to our house for dessert and presents!

This Camelback water bottle is from Leif, Marie and Chloe and we just love it. Mack carries it around with her and every time I fill it up, I think of them. Thanks guys!
Aunt Meg made Mack a pillow case with the characters of one of her ( Mackenzie's) favorite books ( Eric Carle) . Since getting this , we have read two Eric Carle books at bedtime and hunted for characters on the pillow case as we read.
Aunt Meg also got Mack her first set of high heels and matching princess crown! I knew she would love them but am surprised by how much she wears them. She's worn them to ride her bike, with footed pajamas and with nothing at all!
Mack helping Aunt Meg open all her presents. She wanted to try out Aunt Megs new back washer for the shower ( not for outdoors as the instructions clearly state) :
Cheese!
