The elves do their work

After Aoife went to bed, the elves came out and helped Santa get everything ready for Christmas - a giant teddy bear, a not-so-small circus tent, and many, many other toys.

Christmas Eve dinner

We had dinner at Kaspar's on Christmas Eve. Aoife is doing well on her "dining out" manners and charming the waitstaff.

A few random photos from Jim's phone

While searching Jim's phone for Christmas eve photos, I found a few others I liked, so I'm including them in a random post.

Aoife-Santa gif

And of course, Google made a gif of Aoife sitting on Santa's lap!

The year in photos

Google assembled "The Year in Photos" from the many, many photos I've posted online. I hope you enjoy it!

Meeting Santa

Aoife met Santa in early December at Nordstrom. We have a great photo for Christmas this year, but I want to share the rest with you, too!

Daycare goes Downtown

Aoife's daycare took a special trip to downtown Seattle to see the Gingerbread house displays, see Santa and ride the Carousel. It looks like she had a great time!
