Polar Express!

Nana and Boppa took us to see Santa at the G-town loop on Christmas Eve day. It was a perfect Colorado day with blue skies and twinkling white snow. What a great little adventure.
There was plenty of time for snuggling on laps with new birthday babies.
And then some photo shoots with the big man himself.
I keep saying over and over that the magic of this holiday season has been a gift. The girls have reminded me of what is special and important: taking time to sing songs, to talk about the magic of it all, to enjoy the mess of frosting cookies. I am thankful to both of them for the gift of eyes filled with magic; twinkling in amazement. There are wonderful things in this world, and as an adult, I often get too caught up in my list of things to do to notice and enjoy them. Days like this remind me to look at the world through my daughters' eyes.
It is amazing how it changes when I do........
