Ho, Ho, Ho, July!

We made it back to the North Pole this year, and this time we even had the cousins and Nana and Aunt Dani along with us! Aspen and H were big enough to ride on a lot of the rides this year, and they had a BLAST!  



As did the big cousins, of course.











It was a bit of a bummer to have to pause to do something so mundane as EAT LUNCH when there were so many more rides available, but the kids had a fun time running around, entertaining themselves while we got the food.



Sabine managed to duck in to see the man, himself, after lunch. Aspen was still quite nervous, and watched from my arms. Sabine asked for a Madame Alexander doll for Christmas; we thought Aunt Betsy would be proud!













We had a blast. The little cousins blew through their naps, acting like they would never need to leave, screaming and giggling with delight. (Though both did crash as soon as they were loaded into the cars around 4:00.)



I think we will be back before too long!
