Holiday

We had a busy Christmas week with a few more activities here and then our trip to Indianapolis on Christmas Eve.
We visited the Holiday of Lights display in Del Mar which is supposed to be the largest lights display in SoCal. It was pretty cool and Caroline loved it. Our favorite was the surfing Santa. I took a picture but it didn't turn out too well since he's moving, so I'll spare you my blurry photography.
Santa came a little early to our house (he's so accommodating!). Caroline is very excited about her new "big girl" room and bedding. She slept in her big girl room for the first time last night and it went very well - here's to hoping this is not a difficult transition.



We were off to Indy on Christmas Eve day and although it was a long day of travel, our flights were on time and Caroline was a good traveler so we can't complain. We kept ourselves on west coast time so we had a lot of late nights and slept in, but it made for lots of good family time for Caroline since she was up until 11 p.m. every night. She had a blast with her cousins as usual and they had lots of fun playing with their new Bitty Babies and the band set that Aunt Amy got for Caroline.

Josh and I made it to a Colts game while we were in Indy. The new stadium is great and it was fun to see a lot of records being broken, although the game wasn't much of a contest.






We are back home now and enjoyed some New Year's festivities at LegoLand - our first visit there. They had a Kids' New Year's Eve bash with a lego brick dropping to the countdown (at 6 p.m.) followed by fireworks. We went early in the afternoon to enjoy the rides and check out the park. It was very crowded since this is pretty much the "thing" to do with little ones here for New Year's, but Caroline and Josh got to ride about a half dozen rides and we saw all the miniworld lego displays which are pretty impressive. We'll have to go back again when it's not so crowded to ride more rides.
