My birthday was busy with lots of activities - starting with presents while still in pajamas. I got lots of baking accessories - including pink sugar sprinkles. Dad remembered that I had my eye on a homemade planner kit when we were Christmas shopping together. I had a large present that was hiding outside. Growing excitement for - A new big kid bike with hand brakes and gears! I proved you can even ride it in pajamas and slippers. For lunch - a surprise to eat out at Bigalora! Our first restaurant adventure in months - eating outside in our own dome. Dessert #1 for the day! After lunch Dad stopped to get me a special balloon - that barely fit in the car with all of us! I put my new cake decorating kit to good use. Who says you can't decorate your own cake? Then - over to Grandma and Grandpa's house for some more presents and fun. John may have been a little jealous that someone else got a big Lego kit! And after dinner - a homemade steak dinner since we couldn't
It was dark outside - very early. On our second attempt this morning, we finally got Mom & Dad to get out of bed Let the Christmas shenanigans begin! Meet Winter - I was very excited to get a Husky (even if it wasn't real)! New basketballs for everyone to go with our new hoop. More excitement for me by combining gymnastics and Barbie! John had to build his Ninjago Lego kit that I got him right away. But he would have to have a little more time to get into his Skull Scorer's Dungeon Kit. Dad was happy to get not just one vest - but two vests from Mom! All the girls got new shoes to smile about. 2020 called from matching family pajamas (and Winter fit right in)! Waking up super early led to Cora falling asleep as soon as Grandma came over and started reading some of her new books. More smiles and more presents with Grandma & Grandpa. Mom & Dad got into the holiday spirit - While Dad and John kicked it up another notch!
