Mady and I saw the Wizard of Oz play at the Children's Theatre this week; they put on an incredible show! Minnie-Elf had to do something a little crazy for her last day with us; she chose skydiving! Mady and Papa played this gigantic Jenga game for quite a while on Christmas Eve. The only problem is that when it falls, you'd better watch your toes! We had a wonderfully relaxing Christmas day.
