Monday

well,
certainly we're not far, now!

Maddie and I made bird seed cookies, so that we might deliver some to our wild friends for Solstice.

we made it to see Santa.

these pictures are totally appropriate, as they demonstrate exactly how it went.
Trev sat down and went in to his memorized speech - along with a relieved "At the last minute I remembered ScoobyDoo, so I told him about that, too...." he actually only asked for How To Train Your Dragon for the wii, ScoobyDoo and the Spooky Swamp, and told Santa that he's really into Godzilla, Toho toys right now. so if he could surprise him with something.....
(Hmmm.... that's all he's mentioned to me this year, too - I hope we did alright.)


Maddie remembered to ask for Baby Alive, and if he could bring a few surprises....


to the bookstore.
love that.

and to the luxe toy store.
(no luck there, either. he's just outgrowing most toys, sigh.)

home again, home again...

and now it's Solstice.
aaah.

but more on that later.
