Christmas is coming!

Some of our favorite Christmas traditions include...

Going to the Tempe Festival of Lights parade with Matt, Betsy, Owen and Nate. Paloma enjoyed an excellent view of the floats from Daddy's shoulders.



Going up to Prescott to visit Santa (but NOT sit on his lap, and ride the toys at the mall instead!). Here's last year's photo of the tradition.


(Mimi did sit on his lap this year - and screamed. We were kind of suprised, considering how outgoing she is. Paloma waved to Santa from a distance.)

Going to the Christmas parade and lighting of the square in Prescott. Do you remember this tradition? (Notice the hat Paloma is wearing Christmas 2005.)




And last, but certainly not least, building and decorating the gingerbread house. I bought the kit sometime ago, thinking we would work on it the day after Thanksgiving. Paloma absolutely couldn't wait to do it, so this lovely house has been sitting on her dresser since early November. She is thrilled when an occasional piece happens to fall off and she can eat it.
