All I want for Christmas is a Magic Wand~

This year Olive decided she wanted a magic wand from Santa. It was the only thing she asked for and she has been turning people and toys into to butterflies and frogs ever since. We had a great Christmas this year, Olive really got into the spirit of the season. Every time we passed holiday decorations she would gasp and say "Mama,,,,, CHRISTMAS!!" We also had an elf, Curtis, join us this year to keep an eye on Olive and report back to Santa. Curtis even traveled to Costa Rica.

This year we went to Costa Rica for Christmas. Molly, Robin, and Everett joined us and we all rented a houese with a pool. Aside from some flight hiccups, we had the perfect trip. Olive LOVED the animals and swiming in the pool and at the beach. Bob and I enjoyed the break and some sunshine.

The Goodman's Christmas Party

For the 2nd year in a row we attended the Goodman's Christmas party. It was great to see all our friends and all the new babies. Lots of Olive's buddies now have younger siblings, all very cute.
