CHOCOLATE CROISSANT

We went to St. Honoré on a super duper rainy day.

I ordered the chocolate croissant. Turns out I really like the croissant part, but not the chocolate. Go figure!

NEW YEARS DAY 2020

For New Years Day, we took a little jaunt to Oregon City.

At Black Ink Coffee, we built a bunch of little LEGO creations.

Then we walked to the record store so Daddy could ask someone about getting his record player fixed.

And then I tried to avoid Mommy’s camera, as usual.

For the fifth night of Hanukkah, I was presented with a really big present and it was this awesome Hot Wheels track with a double loop!

HANUKKAH 2019 – NIGHT 3

For the third night of Hanukkah, I got an electric NYC subway train set!

Daddy and I built it together.

I like to stop it at its stations.

There are lots of people who need to ride the train!

HANUKKAH 2019 – NIGHT 2

Before lighting the menorah, I dressed Abby up in a nice dress for the occasion.

Then I got down to the business of lighting two candles.

Tonight, Grandma and Grandpa got me a NYC Subway “D” train…

…and a book about the creation of the NYC Subway map.

This D train is running express up 6th Avenue!

HANUKKAH 2019 – NIGHT 1

Hanukkah began tonight! I lit the firetruck menorah I’ve had since I was a wee baby.

Grandma and Grandpa got me the card game Uno.

And Mommy and Daddy got me a toy where I get to dress people up in tulle dresses and comfy coats.

After dinner, I played Uno the way I do in Spanish class at school. I pick a card and say the number and color in Español. Cinco rojo! Thanks, Grandma and Grandpa!

CHRISTMAS TREE HUNTING

One of our traditions is to find the rainiest day of the month and then go get our Christmas tree. It makes the mission extra special.

I located the best tree on the farm and sent Daddy to work cutting it down.

I also found this cool tree that I could stand under.

After we put the tree in the car, I noticed the farm map!

So then, despite it getting dark quickly, I had to walk all around looking for the douglas, grand, noble, and nordmann firs. I even found a few scotch pines!
