Tim's parents (Mimi and Papa) came for a visit a couple weeks ago.  Papa had a conference in Seattle to attend most days, but was able to sneak out some and visit us.  Mimi was able to spend most of her time with us.  She also played her flute in the orchestra on Sunday morning.  I think she and Tim both enjoyed it.  She also had Madelyn "play" her flute.  We had a fun time of playing, putting up Christmas lights, shopping, going up to see the lights at Warm Beach and just hanging out.  Thanks for the visit!

Santa Clause

Tim and I took the kids to the mall to see Santa this past weekend.  Madelyn's been telling me what she wants for Christmas...it consists of lots of talking {LOUD} toys.  Eh hem...no thanks.  We have plenty of those.  I told her to ask Santa when she visits him.  She was so excited to see him which made Theo excited as well.
When we got there, no one was in line.  Yay!  The kids walked right up and started talking to Santa.  They both had smiles (or smirks in Theo's case) for the picture :)
