My New Favorite Thing About Christmas

Opening presents! We celebrated Christmas with the Maddens on Sunday, and boy, do I love wrapping paper. I almost had more fun playing with the wrapping paper than I did with presents... until I opened my drum kit and music set from Babcia and Grandpa! The only thing that makes me put my jingle bell down these days is when I go for my tambourine.

...and Aunt Mary Ann and Uncle Daniel...

...and Mom and Dad.

May got a present too! She is already putting it to good use playing tug-of-war with Grandpa.

We capped off a great afternoon with a trip to Zoo Lights. Uncle Kevin joined us, along with what seemed like all of Denver, and we had a great time looking at all of the lights. I also got to see (and smell) my first elephant, rhino, hippo, and snakes!

Being silly with Dad. I was probably in the middle of making my favorite noise - ba ba ba ba...The whole crew. Are there real dragons at this zoo?
