December


December was jam packed with activities.  The girls enjoyed a ride on the Polar Express and met Santa before we took our trip to Florida.

 

This was their first time sledding this year, back in mid-December.



We really enjoyed the holidays.  Lots of family time and warm weather made for a great vacation.  First stop was Disney World! Pluto and Goofy greeted us at the hotel.


Meeting this cat from the Aristocats was at the top of Harper's list and she was right there at the entrance to the Magic Kingdom.  The girls met lots of characters and enjoyed the holiday decorations and rides.









We headed to Naples and had a blast with Meme and Baba for Christmas.  The girls made Christmas cookies and decorated chocolate Christmas houses with Meme.


Harper was pleased that Santa brought her this EZ Bake Oven, along with chef dress up clothes.


Ida got her wish - a remote control robot.


Relaxing with their new comic books.


Getting ready to go out to dinner with Meme and Baba.



We sure did enjoy the warm weather!  The girls spent most of their time in the pool, but somehow we didn't get any pictures of all the fun they had swimming and diving.

Nana, Papa, and the Beckers all came down too.  The kids love their cousins!


Papa received the coveted baseball trophy.


Ida Jane lost her tooth!


On New Year's Eve, we boarded the autotrain, which took us from FL to VA.  The girls loved it.


Happy New Year!
