Christmas continued in Santa Barbara...

From St. Louis, K and I flew straight to Santa Barbara, while Dada flew home to get some work done and pick up our car.  Uncle Bri and Uncle Conor were home at CiCi and Papa's, and Mae Mae and Billy came, too, so that we could celebrate Christmas all together.  K was amazed that Santa came to CiCi and Papa's house, too!  K was all dressed to see what Santa brought her, but I think she was a little apprehensive to walk into the living room...

Cici got her to go, and...

She found the coolest stuff!  Including her very own Grocery Store, K's Mart!

It has a Hello Kitty Water Cooler, which she immediately went for, filling cups for the whole family to drink while we opened presents!

Her store even has it's very own mailbox with letters and postcards to stamp!  One of K's favorite things is to put the mail in our mailbox and pick up our mail!

She liked scanning the groceries and collecting the money (but a lot of times, she was handing out more change than collecting...we need to work on that!)

K filled the cups over and over, so we all had a cup of water on hand while opening our presents....K is such a good hostess!

We had such a great time with the whole family, and we really appreciate everything CiCi and Papa did to make it happen and to give us such a wonderful second Christmas!
