Christmas in California

We celebrated our Christmas in CA the day before we left for Minnesota which was a week before Christmas.  It was a blast watching Sienna open her gifts while wearing her santa hat.  She is such a little cutie:)

Getting Ready for Santa

Sienna had a really fun December waiting for Santa's arrival.  She made her first gingerbread house with mama at Treat Sweets by our house and went on a train ride with Oliver at the Paraiso Holiday Celebration.  Sienna also played in the snow with Logan at Amgen's annual holiday party.  She had fun watching everyone throw snowballs and playing in the snow saying how cold it was.  We all decorated the Christmas tree...Sienna placed the ornaments she could touch on the bottom third of the tree.  She did not have a fun time seeing Santa and cried with and without mama holding her.  But she liked waving to him from a distance and talking about him coming to visit with toys.  Maybe next year she will realize how nice and fun Santa is to all the boys and girls!

Thanksgiving

Nanna visited us for the week of Thanksgiving.  We made the traditional turkey dinner and invited our friends Tami, Richard and Luca over to join us.  We did some Christmas shopping, picked out and decorated our Christmas tree and took pictures on the beach for our Christmas card photo.  We really enjoyed our visit with Nanna and can't wait to see her again at Christmas!
I love Nanna
