Fun weekend!

This weekend wiped me out! I'm exhausted!

We had a short week at daycare. We were still excited that the tree and lights are all up. And Mommy put some presents under the tree on Monday!

Mom picked us up Wednesday and we saw snow outside, then Thursday morning we got up and asked if we could go to Grandma's. We had to wait until after dinner, but we were so excited to get to Grandma & Grandpa's! Nobody else was there when we got there, so we got Grandma & Grandpa all to ourselves.

Friday, we helped make brownies for Grandma, then after dinner we went to visit Santa and his village. It was very cool, and he was so nice. I told him I wanted Barbies. Lots of them. Noah wants lots of Monster Trucks. (Though, he hardly ever put Uncle Adam's transformer toy down when he played at Grandma's this weekend!) Santa even gave us an apple. We got to see the North pole, Mrs. Santa's kitchen with all the gingerbread, the elves' workshop (the elves were there and they gave us TWO toys!), trains, and the reindeer barn. We got to sign the naughty/nice wall (of course, I was nice. Noah signed that he was nice, though I'm not so sure...) and we even wrote letters to Santa and mailed them right there.

After we got home and ate our apple from Santa, Angie came - just as we were setting up Grandma's Christmas Tree. Ben & Lauren were not far behind. We were very excited to get to see our aunts and cousins.

Saturday, we got up early and went to see Great Grandma Marita. It was quiet, but she was happy to see us. She let us play with her teddy bears on her couch and we played hide & seek and looked at all of her pictures from when mommy was little like us!

After that, we went to Great Grandma Leona's, and LOTS of mommy's cousins, aunts & uncles were there. It was CRAZY! After dinner, some of our cousins were going to Santaland, so we went again. We showed our cousin Hailey that Santa wasn't scary. Then, we showed Ben, Lauren & Hailey around Santaland, since we were just there. When we got back to Great Grandma's, we got to play upstairs with the "bigger" kids and color fun coloring pages. We were sad to stop playing uno and go home, but we were tired.

Today, we got to play with Lauren & Ben again before we ate dinner and went home. I was really tired. I was ready to go home. When we got home, I was so tired that I just put on my pajamas and went to sleep! I didn't even eat my favorite meal (macaroni & cheese) and take a bath.

Well, time to go. A full week of daycare, though we're starting to get excited about our birthdays coming soon. We'll be FOUR! (2+2 is 4!) We're learning to add numbers together now. We can add simple things like 3+3, 4+4, etc...though it's tricky when you have different numbers like 3+4. What's that?!

Hope you had a happy Thanksgiving, and we're looking forward to the crazy weeks ahead before our birthday and Christmas.
