With Joe and I both home, and Petra now off for the holiday break, we've been doing some Christmas-y things, like decorating a tree...
... and decorating a gingerbread house.
The only thing we had to make was the icing, which was just my speed.
And of course, a visit to the Holiday Express, where Petra had her one and only visit with Santa (by her choice, and who am I to push a visit to the mall?).
Cora's first train ride...
And of course, gingerbread cookies. Petra took their decorating very seriously.
