Holiday fun

It is almost my second Christmas so this year I got to help decorate the tree. Dad was at work so mom and I had a lot of work to do. She hung the heavy breakable ones while I handled the others. These snowflakes are cool! Now that I know how to put them on, I like to take them off and put them on over and over.
Grandma and Grandpa Kloke came to visit for a few days. Grandpa and I had a lot of bonding time on our walks. We bundle up with coat, hat, gloves, the works! He doesn't mind that I go slow and walk into every driveway and pick up every rock along the way. And Gourmet likes my slow pace too!
For the holidays I have been very into drawing and coloring. I say the word "paper" and get into my booster seat at the table and mom gets my stuff. I draw and color and put stickers in all kinds of places! Grandpa helped me create a Christmas tree masterpiece with colors and stickers for ornaments.
Yesterday was the most fun for arts and crafts. I went to the shop Totally Crazed where I got to paint my own ceramic tile. Last year I only got to do a footprint on the tile - it felt funny to have the bottom of my foot covered in paint! (My sister had to do that this year.)
I love to say the word "yellow" so most of the color on my tile is yellow. But mom suggested I do blue, red, green, and a little purple. That way it is colorful. Can't wait to pick it up after it is fired!
Did I mention Santa was there too? I refused to sit on his lap, or even stand by him for that matter. If I wanted to go around the table, I went all the way to the other end of the store - I wasn't getting near that bearded fellow! So mom didn't get a picture of me and him this year like last year. Maybe in the future I will try it again.

    Wow that sounds like fun. I bet your tile was the prettiest of them all.
