Gordy had been very patiently awaiting December and all that it brought. And, now that it's over he's decided that it was the best December ever. Here's some of the reasons why he loved it so much:
Tutu Ginger came to visit and while she was here we decorated Nana's Christmas tree and made Granny Goodwitch's Christmas cookies.
After many revisions, Gordy completed and mailed his list to Santa.
Gordy's elf came to life and went to the North Pole each night returning in the morning to a new hiding place.
We sipped hot cocoa with marshmallows while watching the Christmas parade from the side of the street in Haleiwa.
We spent a day on Maui with Nana and twins Hayden and Sebastian.
Gordy was pretty sure that he'd started to grow whiskers.
Salvation army gave us a free Christmas tree (still not sure how that happened).
Gordy found a pet toad, who quickly hopped away.
More cookie making with Gordy's friend Alia and her family.
On Christmas Eve, Gordy and I heard reindeer footsteps on the roof and Santa say "ho, ho, ho".
We left out cookies and wine for Santa and carrots for the reindeer, and hung our stockings with care.
And, most importantly... Santa came and filled our stockings!
