Gracie and her Papa shared some olives.

Gracie's teacher, Mrs. Jennifer, gave all of her students stockings full of goodies. Among the treasures was a vial of "reindeer food." The instructions said to sprinkle the food (oatmeal to the adults) on the lawn on Christmas Eve. Drew and I loved the idea. We talked about it with Gracie for several days. She was really excited about doing this. So, after our family left, we headed out into the cold to sprinkle the reindeer food.

Looking up at the sky to see if the reindeer are coming yet. I love this picture.

Does the two-year-old have too many presents? Maybe, but who cares? We had fun!

I bought Gracie a shirt with ballet shoes embroidered on it. It was perfect for our little dancer!

As you can see, she liked the shirt and had to try it on immediately. Gracie got this hat from one of my students. Of course, she had to pause in her present opening to not only try them both on, but to also pose for pictures. They look good with her pj pants, no?

Pandy hat!!!

When she opened her Dora Backpack, she shrieked and said, "Oh! My pack-pack, pack-pack!"
