Fun few days

Yesterday after your nap, you and I headed to Knott's Merry Farm. We met Aunt Heidi, Mallorey and Logan there.

You had a lot of fun, especially seeing Santa in the parade. He reminded you (and me) that we have to leave him cookies and milk,and then he gave a big Ho Ho Ho.

After the parade, we went on a few rides, had some dinner, had a Churro and then came home. It was the perfect little trip.






Today we had an even better day!!! Daddy had the day off so we went to see Disney on Ice. You got to see Lightning McQueen and all his friends. You loved seeing them. Then it was time for Ariel, which I'm still trying to figure out how you even know her name considering you've never seen the movie? You barely blinked through the whole thing.


After intermission Daddy came back with some popcorn, and I think you liked that just as much as watching Tinkerbell.

At one point, your entire arm was in the popcorn box searcing.



You loved every minute of the show, but in true Kendyl form at the end you said, "That was fun stupid" Aye-yia-yia!!!


We left the show and within 10 minutes you were asleep so Daddy and I decided to take a little drive. We have been wanting to come up with a Christmas Eve family tradition the three of us can start and continue until you are an adult. So tonight we tried one out, even though it's not technically Christmas Eve (Luckily, you're still too young to know the difference)

So we headed down towards Belmont Shore and drove around down by the jetty. It was almost sunset so we got out and walked around on the sand.



You had so much fun and even said, "I don't wanna leave the beach, I just love it" :) You made the birds a special dinner and then you chased them away with a stick that you found. You were really having a good time.

You even- excuse the topic- took a big poop followed by, "Not change my diaper now...wait til we get home, K?"
As much as you would have liked that, we wouldn't so we left the beach in search of a perfect little place for dinner to call our new tradition. Low and behold, we found it in Seal Beach... the Yucatan grill. They have the best/strongest margaritas I have ever had. So needless to say, we'll be going back next year (if not sooner).

After dinner we drove over and walked around Naples to see all the pretty lights. You loved seeing all the different houses and surprisingly, it wasn't too crowded. So I think we have come up with out Christmas Eve Sumlin tradition......
beach,Yucatan grill , and Naples stroll. Hopefully it will be a tradition you look forward to as you get older and maybe will continue with your own family someday (OK that drew a tear.)

1 more night until Santa comes:) I'm sorry to tell you that he is not going to bring you the 2 things you have been asking for; boobies, and Uncle Ian (from Alvin and the Chipmunks) Who knows where you got those ideas, but let's forget about them please:)

Love you Kendyl. Thanks for a great day.
