Both kids were really into Christmas, as expected, this year. We did a lot of looking at decorations and even attended the tree lighting at our church. But their favorite thing, undoubtedly, was a Groupon-inspired trip to Sesame Place for their holiday extravaganza. It was a pretty grim day weather-wise, but it never did more than drizzle which was enough to keep the crowds away, so it was kind of perfect! The kids loved all the Christmas-y things and seeing their favorite characters. (On a side note, I've always been hesitant to go to Sesame Place because the kids have NEVER liked Sesame Street. But a few months ago, they started watching it almost daily, so this was the perfect opportunity.)
The last week of school before winter break was very fun for Gianna. Parents were invited to the writers' celebration where the children shared their "published" stories. It was adorable. The kids were SO excited to share their stories with anyone who would listen. Gianna's story was about Aunt Jenny and Uncle Steve's wedding. So that's them on the cover of her book.
