Merry Christmas!!

Things are festive around here... our house has been decorated for awhile now, Christmas candles burn every night, baked goods are being made, and the ugliest tree we have ever had stands in our living room (we were in a hurry to pick one out, imagine that!).

We visited Santa's Magical Kingdom last night, where they charge you $17 to drive through Christmas lights at the Jellystone Campground. I pulled a Brittany Spears and put Kate on my lap (Mark was driving and seriously, we were driving like 5 miles per hour through there.. nobody freak out on me!). Kate made it way more fun than it would've been if it were just the two . She oohed and ahhed at all the lights and moving characters. She has started putting her hand over her mouth when she says, "Ooh" and it is TOO CUTE!!

We visited the Kringle's General Store there so she could see Santa and it pretty much played out the way I thought it would:

Thank goodness this was free Santa!!

So... Merry Christmas from the girl who hates Santa. :)
