Spent a day making Christmas and Hanukkah sugar cookies with my biggest ❤️. We did them together last year, too, but I liked how she was more involved this time. She even helped me decorate a lot of them and not just the one she wanted to eat :).

P.s. when did she stop looking like a baby and more like a little girl 😭?

We went back to see the reindeer at the Bothell Country Village again this year. I got to take Ellie there last year on a random day off so I took both girls this year. She lasted about 30 seconds and then wanted to look for Santa, but we didn’t find him for some reason. She always thinks she wants to see him, but is terrified when it comes to sitting on his lap. While we didn’t spend much time with Santa’s reindeer, it’s always nice to wander around there and check things out.
