| Tessa had a wonderful Christmas! She got to do a program at her school and absolutely loved dressing up and singing/dancing for the crowd. She was an absolute ham! Christmas Eve, she helped us get ready for Santa by making cookies and having a (late) Christmas Eve dinner. She is our little lightweight though, and didn't manage to stay awake long enough to hang up her stocking. We woke her up, but she went right back down after a book. Christmas morning, she was up bright and early and was ready for her presents! After opening her stocking upstairs, she attacked the presents under the tree and had them opened with her usual Tessa speed. Her favorite gifts this year were all of the games, and a new little Fur Real kitty (that meows and moves). |
