Christmas blog 3 - live nativity

Aunt Kati was in the live nativity scene at our church. She's the shepherd all the way on the right, behind that cute sheep. Oh, wait. It looks like all the other sheep. Anyway...



It was really cold outside, so Mommy and I waited in the church. While we waited, I looked at the pretty Christmas tree. It was really tall!



Here's a picture of all the people who were in the nativity, so you can see Aunt Kati's shepherd outfit (and the tree!) a little better.



And here's another picture of me!

Disney trip blog 2 - Hollywood Studios

On our first full day at Walt Disney World, we went to a park called Hollywood Studios.

There was a great big Christmas tree in front of the park.



Hollywood Studios has fun rides, like the other Disney parks, but it also has lots of cool shows! The first one we went to was the Little Mermaid show. I liked the singing but was not a huge fan of the big mean octopus Ursula. Apparently she's not nice and I'm not supposed to like her anyway, so I guess that was okay. After that show, we went to a show that I really loved! It was called Playhouse Disney Live on Stage, and it had two of my favorites on it - Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Handy Manny!



I especially liked clapping along to the music!



For lunch, we ate in a really cool restaurant - we got to sit in cars and watch old movies on a big screen.





After lunch, we went to play at the playground which was based on another one of my favorite movies, "A Bug's Life". When you are on the playground, you feel as small as a bug because all the stuff in there is HUGE.



My favorite was the big leaf slide. I went on it over and over and over, and then over again.





We went back to our hotel for an afternoon nap, and then we went back to Hollywood Studios, and straight into Toy Story! Look, it's Andy's room!



The ride is 3D, so I got to wear some crazy fun glasses.



Then, I got my picture taken with two of my favorite movie stars: Lightning McQueen and Mater!





Then we walked down a street that was absolutely covered with Christmas lights!



And finally, we saw a hilarious Muppets show. We got to wear another pair of those funny 3D glasses again.



Wow, we packed a lot of fun into that day, didn't we? I slept well that night!

Christmas blog 2 - cookies!

Another fun thing that I like to do every Christmas is help Mommy make cookies for Santa. Don't worry, Mommy does the grown up part, like putting the cookies into and taking them out of the hot oven. I get to help with the icing and decorating!

Mommy mixed up some red and green icing for us to put on the cookies. We also kept some of the icing just plain white.



We spread it on them...



And then we added the sprinkles!



Lots of them!



I bet Santa liked those cookies.

Disney trip - blog 1

As I've mentioned before, Aunt Kati, Uncle John and I went to Disney World for two weeks! Mommy, Grandma and Grandpa were there for part of the time, too. Boy, did we have fun! It will take several blogs to share it all, but here's a quick one just to get started. The first day we arrived, we didn't do much since it was about 3 in the afternoon already when we got there.

I really liked the Minnie Mouse head made of towels that was on the bed in the room.




Then we went to eat at a wonderful restaurant called Boma. They had African food there. I was adventurous and tried some, but I also liked the food they had just for kids like me (especially the mac and cheese and chicken nuggets).



But my absolute favorite thing was that they had wonderful fresh strawberries. I ate a whole plateful!

Christmas celebrations - blog 1

Aunt Kati has decided she is going to alternate blogs about our Disney trip and our Christmas fun so we can share both with you. So here's the first blog about Christmas.

Every year, my school has a big Christmas party. It's fun!

I really love the snacks...



...but my favorite part is when Santa arrives on the fire truck!




Of course, I also enjoy talking to Santa.

Another cute picture

Aunt Kati says she is going to get the blog caught up with pictures from Disney World and Christmas one of these days, but in the meantime, she found this really cute picture of me. Am I adorable in a hat or what?

Happy New Year!

Here's a cute picture of me! Of course, Uncle John says that all pictures taken of me are cute.
