Une Envie de Sel

 So we opened our "at home" gifts on Christmas Eve morning, since we have family plans for the day.

 We just told Q that Santa came a day early.

 I sucked up my pride and gave her the all-pink Christmas of her three-year-old dreams.

 The pink camera that her daddy found for her was the hit of the day.

 She played so hard that she crashed an hour early for nap.

 Frankly, I think her brain was a bit fried from all the excitement. 

Last year, she was really still too young to appreciate the holidays, so this was her first big Christmas blowout.

 A Chinese dancing ribbon and fan provided hours of entertainment.

 Two of her favorite things in life: a basketball, and a pink ribbon.

 Playing "mailman" and delivering imaginary Christmas cards around the house.

 New dancing slippers.

 A grand finish to a performance.

 Francis looks on. This was Francis' first Christmas, and I think he was a big dumbfounded.

 Fan dancing with daddy.

Today was our at-home morning. Tomorrow will be the big family gathering. Wishing one and all a warm holiday weekend.
