We went to McDonalds a day early since the next day is Sunday. We had fun with the adult size Happy Meal! The craziest part was Amanda wanting to collect them all and telling her family that they needed to get the happy meal. Then Diego introducing the concept of the Golden Egg – one golden at every location. And then, THEN, Arri gave Amanda her unopened toy and it was A GOLDEN NUGGET!! You can only imagine how excited we all were in this moment! I’m still excited just remembering it 🙂 Since then she has completed the collection.

That night we drove around to see some Christmas Lights!!!

And Benji kept the McDonalds tradition alive out in DC!

Cali And Rose let me bribe them with a drink and they cleaned the Toy Room – My Christmas Elfs – And Chewey the Elf. And as soon as the Toy Room is clean then Millie and Tiago had some fun in there. More haircuts and poor Dad ended up in the hospital on December 21 – he had sepsus and some gall stones? He spent a few days trying to get the heart rate down and the infection identified.

And we finished up our Christmas Shopping for all of the cousins!!
