Christmas and New Years Break with Kaleigh !

Dear 1st Grade friends,
         Well after a very fun filled day on Friday with our Christmas party in 1st grade with all my friends I found out that I was going to spend my Holiday vacation with Kaleigh!  I knew she was super excited to have me come and visit because she squealed very loud and ran up and hugged me sooooo tightly.  Kaleigh told me she had been waiting anxiously to have me come for a sleepover.  The fun was only just beginning.  I got to meet her mom, dad, brother Bobby and dog (Hershey).  That night I slept with her as she snuggled me real close.

          The next day we helped put all the lights on the family Christmas tree which was super tall and her brother said it was 12 feet high- man did her mom have to use a lot of lights, so many that she had to run to the store to buy more.  All day Sunday we decorated the tree and sung carols and finished decorating and cleaning the house for the Christmas Eve party the family always has every year.  On the 24th I stayed home with mom and finished all the 'touches' to the house while Kaleigh went with her big cousin Tina until the party started.  There were so many people and so much food and everyone was very nice and I got to meet all her cousins and aunts, uncles and her 'Mi-mi' and Nana and Papa too.  Her Papa has a big white beard and belly and when he was reading all of us the Night Before Christmas story I almost thought it was Santa reading to us.... hee hee hee  Then we went to bed almost too excited to sleep waiting for SANTA to come!  And he did ! 
          We woke the next morning and there were so many presents, smiles and laughing and wrapping paper everywhere.  Santa ate the brownies we left, the reindeer ate the carrots and Santa even left white glittery boot tracks on his way out- super cool.  We played with all her new toys and had some fun when her dog Hershey was playing with his new toys too, but her mom took a little nap on the couch while we watched to Disney parade because she said she was tired- I wonder why???  Then we all got dressed for dinner at her Nana's house and more presents with her family and all her cousins again... yay
At the movies...
          It snowed on Wednesday and her and Bobby went sledding on the hill in the yard, they were going really fast.  I had to watch them from inside because I forgot to bring my boots and snowpants but Mom let me have some marsh mellows (which I love) because both Kaleigh and Bobby are allergic to peanuts so I tried something new.  We also went to the movies to see "Rise of the Guardians" and had dinner at Arby's and more sledding all week and watching lots of Christmas shows on t.v. (mom really loves Christmas) and making cookies.



The week flew by and it was Sunday and we went to celebrate Christmas once again with her Mimi and guess what?  More presents ! wow - what fun !  The next night was New Years Eve and her mom and dad both had to work so me, Kaleigh and Bobby got to have a super fun sleepover at Mimi's house and had so much fun.  We had lots of snack food to eat and played and got to count down the ball dropping and really loud horns to blow and I even got my own special hat to wear! !  Family day with mom and dad all day Tuesday and then time to get ready for school Wednesday.  I had so much fun with my pal Kaleigh but I am happy to see all my 1st grade friends again ...  Love, Squirt
