The day after...

What do you do the day after Christmas when you have more new toys than you know what to do with?? In our house, play with a Ziploc plastic bag.  Dec 26th, Luke spent an hour playing with this plastic bag and water.  Next year, we'll tell Santa to save his presents....


Little Miss felt compelled to try out the new bikini she got for Christmas.  She wore it all day. Cold?  I would think so but who knows?!
