We're down in FL, spending Christmas with Jacki's folks. Staying with her brother Jason, which is actually working out quite well. Jason's really getting into being an uncle.
Yesterday it was warm outside, and Ilya and I spent a good deal of the day outside in the yard. He played in the dirt a bit, necessitating a couple of baths along the way, and we marched up and down singing, "The Ants Go Marching," with yours truly coming up with creative alternatives as possible for what the little ones do at each number.
I've got pumpkin pies in the oven, and I need to check on them in a few minutes. Everyone else will wake up to the smell of fresh-baked pumpkin pie.
We'll see how the kiddo likes his first American Christmas!
