It's been a Holly Jolly Christmas

Greetings, from Casa Harlos!

Well, it has most definitely been a very merry Christmas...

I'll start with the most exciting news first...

we have a new family member...Mr. Dancing Octopus!

Nani and Papi brought Mr. Dancing Octopus along with all kinds of other goodies and treats...
They really spoiled us.

Just look at these socks for my pops...they're so soft and warm!

We had a fun day of adventures...

We visited a place called Rosebank Farms that had a museum, some chickens, an art gallery, and this talking parrot...

We had a picnic and played frisbee at Mingo Point, Kiawah Island...

and we saw this really big, really old, really cool tree called the "Angel Oak"...

We were sad when Nani and Papi left... We all had such a good time!

And, we sure miss GranT and GrandPaul and Ryan, too.

GranT hung out with me while I waited for Santa...

I got a little frustrated when they told me he wouldn't come until I went to sleep...what's the fun in that?Oh, just let me tell you!

PRESENTS!!!!

Santa brought me all kinds of paper to rip and bows to eat and pajamas and books and a sweet little Lamb that sings me to sleep...

I even found some antlers that Rudolph left behind!!!

My Pops and My Mum got a hold of some, too...

Everybody was acting very silly...I giggled so much and we all had the best time!

Then, in a laid back effort to impress my Uncle Ryan, I showed off my latest skill:

self-administered bottle chugging...

Oh wait! I almost forgot...I also got a shiny red pig from Santa!

(I think he may have gotten it at the same place we saw the talking parrot...although this pig doesn't talk, he eats my pennies and dollars and keeps them all safe in his belly. Pops says it will turn into my first bike one day and maybe even "free room and board" at college...

...way cool pig, eh?!!!)

I tell you what, the holidays are exhausting!

I think it's time for me to catch up on a few Z's...

Until our next adventure...
