My friend,
Stephanie, recently moved to the Heights. Last night, she had an Open House of sorts for friends interested in going to
Lights in the Heights. Her place was the perfect location...right next to the parade start, Santa, and pony rides! The first thing we did was walk down to watch the parade which had everything from roller derby to men in kilts playing bagpipes.
Ellie loved it, but Jack remained unimpressed.
Later, we walked over to get pictures with Santa. This was the first year that Ellie sat on Santa's lap willingly. She was pretty excited about it. Santa pretty much forced Tom and I to get in the picture, too. The picture was such that I refuse to scan it in for this entry. Then, we took Ellie over for a pony ride. She did not want to get off the pony. Tom had to pull her off and then wait while she petted and said goodbye to the little guy.
Stephanie had quite the crowd at her house and Ellie was thrilled when two girls around her age showed up. She walked right up to them, grabbed their hands, and led them to the toys. Later, she informed me that she had so much fun playing with her "cousins." Um, yeah, I was all, "not every kid is your cousin." We probably need to get out more.
