Singer

Lilly loves singing. Her favorite places to sing are the car or in bed. She has quite a repertoire - thanks to Sandy the music teacher at school. Oh yes, and she loves dress up especially with mom's heals.

Christmas.. .

This Christmas Lilly began to understand the magic. If you ask her what Santa says, she will say "Ho, Ho, Ho, Merry Christmas!" She knows that Santa brings toys, and loved the presents. Thanks to her Nannas and Aunt Judy she knows that Christmas is "Jesus Birthday". We did the usual Christmas Eve in Yakima and Christmas Day in Seattle.

Santa brought Lilly a grocery cart full of food!

Christmas celebrations with the grandparents

This past week- Lilly met Santa Clause. First with her cousins, Emma and Lucy. She loved the idea, but when it came time she screamed even with her cousins right by her side. It made a great picture (which we do not have electronically).

This we headed to the Yacht Club - Oh Lilly loved Mrs. Clause. She even called her Nanna Clause.

This is the closest we could get to Santa. Mom and Dad had to be in-between.

We had a great time with our grandparents!

St. Nick

We had the chance to visit with St. Nick again this year. Mr. Lewis is a very good friend of Nanna and Grandpa Einstein's. Lilly is still trying to figure out what to think about Santa Clause and St. Nick. She does not cry just sits in shock. Her new favorite song is "Jingle Bells" and how fascinated we are by the Christmas lights.

Kauai . . . oh how we miss it!

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Nana and Grandpa invited the Einstein Clan to join them at their thier timeshare. It was the perfect time of year to get away to the sun and the surf.

The Einstein clan- but we missed Will, Brooke, Emma and Lucy!

Nanna had a great time with her grandkids! And we appreciated all her help watching them.

Lilly loved the giraffe- she even sat in the giraffe in the condo! "Swimming pool please!"

Lilly's Favorite part other than "swimming with the whales" was watching the sunsets and counting the stars! A gal who loves nature .. . but how could you not love these sunsets.
