The Spinning Game

Something got into my daughter last night. I truthfully have no idea what. I didn't give her sugar, so she wasn't wired. And she woke up from her nap slightly cranky, so it couldn't have been too much sleep.

But all of a sudden, she was absolutely silly! Before Brett got home, her and I played the spinning game in the living room for 20+ minutes....SOLID. Mommy was worn out by the time Daddy got home and she STILL wanted to spin. So we taped her at the end of her playing....so cute.

Christmas at Glenarm Walled Gardens

Tonight we took Hazel to see Santa at the Walled Gardens at Glenarm Castle. It was chilly out, but nothing too unbearable.
Here's my hottie husband and beautiful little girl walking into the Gardens...The stables all lit up and the Christmas Wreaths for sale...The old car, the creepy (we're talking scary Halloween creepy) statues, supposedly giving the feeling of an Old time Christmas...I think they were just creepy...Father and daughter taking a stroll...Hazel and Brett checking out the sleepy reindeer....probably by that point it had been a long day for the poor reindeer...Hazel and Mommy writing her letter to Santa...And then mailing it....Hazel's present from Santa. She got a wooden dog on a stick that she can push around. She had a death grip on the handle for the rest of the night....Enjoying refreshments after seeing Santa and his reindeer...notice the death grip on the dog handle....
