"All I Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth..."

Well, maybe just one tooth will do. The big news is that Emma lost her first tooth!!!! She was so excited! She is overly concerned that Grammy will not be able to see her without her tooth, and almost paniced the other day when she realized her new tooth has begun to grow in. When I assured her it wouldn't grow that fast, plus she has this picture to show her (just in case), she was much releaved!!! I just love the mind of a 5 year old!!!!

Festival of Lights at the Zoo

A couple of Fridays ago we headed down to the Cincinnati Zoo for the Festival of Lights. It was a cold evening, but, hey, it wouldn't be festive if it wasn't cold. What made it even more special was that it was SNOWY!!! It was simply beautiful!!! Actually, pictures just can't capture the snow falling, people singing, the excitement of the kids, and the beautiful lights.

All the kids on the train (plus Grace's friend Anna and Olivia's friend Teegan)

This tree was much more beautiful in person. The snow on the branches was breathtaking!!!
