Christmassy Stuff - Christmas
Wonderful Christmas surprises for EVERYONE!!! Oh my...
And then Gwen spent almost the entire day watching dvd's at the table. She ate almost an entire box of peppermint bark.
Then we decorated cookies, because I guess she likes that.

Christmassy Stuff - Christmas Eve
We've started a new Christmas Eve tradition. Cozy family bonfire. Logan hates this tradition.
Christmassy Stuff - Santa and Parade
Coronado has put on some nice events for Christmas. They created a small snow-mountain (which we didn't do because the big kids seemed a little rough for the Gwenner), cookie decorating and meet Santa at the Ferry Landing. We don't give Gwen many cookies so she was especially excited that she got to decorate and then eat as many cookies as she wanted.
Gwen was too afraid of Santa to get out of the stroller and talk to him (and this was repeated at later Santa meetings as well, even though she kept saying she was "ok with Santa because he gives [her] candy canes.")
Some of the highlights of the parade: Ronald McDonald, Joseph and Mary on segways.

The hotel put on fireworks and free games for kids at the beginning of December. Here are some pics.

Where a Princess Goes
I think that when Gwen gets married, this picture needs to be prominently displayed...like everywhere.
Thanksgiving
We spent the Thanksgiving holiday in New Jersey. It was a looooong flight, but it definitely could have been worse. Worth it.
We got to experience some real fall/winter weather.
The kids got to see the Corson homestead. Logan got a chance to talk with "someone who really gets him" (and that would be Grandpa Ken, apparently).
We took the kids on their first train ride, a whole 4 minutes to the next stop on the line (and then home again after lunch). Gwen was a little confused when she didn't once hear the conductor yell "all aboard."
We made a stop at the Blocks' where Gwen was given loads of wonderful jewelry (among other things) and had a photo-shoot in the bathtub (among other places).
Logan was there too (he got a sweet, sweet leather jacket).
And Logan spent the week annoying Uncle Sam by touching his walker, taking his toys, and messing up his perfectly made bed. He can be kind of a bully sometimes.
ps - I know it's hard to believe, but my 10 year high school reunion was also that weekend. I went and it was fun. Everyone looks great and is great.
