Second Christmas, Christmas Break, New Years

We gifted Clara Bananagrams for Christmas so we got in a couple of rounds of that. I thought it was pretty fun.

We still don't have any snow, just some leftover piles here and there. We did have rain over Christmas break so Clara and I headed outside

Late night shennanigans with Brynn.

We checked off quite a few things off our Christmas Vacation Bucket List, but were foiled with a couple like tubing and sledding with our lack of snow. I think Detroit Mountain was open for tubing/skiing, but we still didn't make it there.

Dad and Clara watched the morning movie (I'm trying to recall what this one is called. Klaus, I think.) after their sleepover.

We held the gingerbread house decorating contest again...I opted out of participating and Hubert took my spot.

Thank you so all who voted! Brynn remains undefeated!

Dana and Clara did the arcade games at Kingpinz after we ate dinner there while I went back home with Brynn and Hubert until our bowling reservation.

Dana kept texting me pics and every time he sent one, it was of Clara with more tickets. Haha.

We celebrated Christmas with Dana's side over the weekend.

Clara made a note for Grandma saying she makes the BEST caramel rolls! I can't disagree.

On New Year's Eve we went to a Force game.

Grandma took Clara shopping and Clara used some of her money she had saved up to get a matching outfit for her bear.

It was a good game and they won by four!

On New Year's Day, the last day of break, we went ice skating at The Lights in West Fargo and brought Daniel and Abigail, Hubert's siblings. It was pretty chilly and we had to get Clara back home to get to bed, so we weren't there very long.

Oops...I didn't realize that Clara's eyes were closed when I snapped the pic.
