Christmas 2011

Good news, Fans: Santa Claus came to Raleigh House. He knew that we have a pretty awesome pair of bambini because he did not disappoint: he brought the fishing pole and Thomas the Tank Engine puzzle for which Joe had asked. Other loot included a "cupcake kitchen," a "basket of babies," a toy record player, books, some Thomas the Tank Engine tracks and trains, a viewfinder, assorted puzzles, and several types of blocks. We are ready to dig a foundation for an addition. Clara also got a dress and a swim cover-up, or so she was told. She thumb her nose at such provincial fashion backwardness and wore them together a good portion of the morning. She'll be mailing some sketches to Santa for next Christmas.

[It's kind of a wild time, making cupcakes.]

[We got train sets. Julie put them together separately. Ted said we should connect the. Julie said, "You need, like, and Engineering degree to do that." It's true. She is very subtle.]

[Berenice, you gotta see this.]

[Daddy, who is this Titian-haired beauty? She has a horse and a sporty blue roadster? Wait, this is Mommy's book? What?]

[Often imitated. Never duplicated.]
