Post-Christmas Fun

Here are some fun things we got to squeeze in before the 2016 ended:

Ok, so he's not having so much fun, but he sure is a cutie!

Elisa and matching dolly! She refuses to wear most things I make her nowadays.

I took the kiddos to the mall for fun during their Christmas break.  I would have liked to let them all ride the train, but I thought $25 was too much for that.  Instead, I let Gabe ride and we all got to eat at Johnny Rockets, for less that what I would have paid for us to all ride the train.  And that included a shake upgrade for miss Elisa!

I went to check on Gabe one night and I found him dressed like this.  It was 10:30 pm.  The real Gabe actually went to sleep and Super Mario took over the night shift.

New Year's wasn't much.  We didn't plan much for New Year's Eve and when I tried to invite some people over (at the last minute) they couldn't come so we just had some cheese balls and did a couple of fireworks.  They were slightly lame, considering they were $10.  It was more of a $3 show. Erik had to work the next morning and we're old with kids, so we went to bed not much after 10 pm.
