Later the adults exchanged jokes gifts with one another. Dan got an iphone cozy, jan - a new red bow to add to her collection, dave - enough white bread to choke a horse, emilee - baking aids , jen - a spiffy bread slicer guide :) and me - home made salsa made out of the veggies i neglected to take care of in Emilee's garden. :)
The next morning the girls awoke to find that Sinterklaas had come back during the night and had brought the blessed PILLOWPETS!!! Thank you Sinterklaas!!!
Annika in utter bliss with her unicorn pillowpet.
I think Mieka loves her dolphin/whale too. :)

Wow, fancy! We celebrated Saint Nicholas day (also the 6th, but the German version). We were really low key, though. The girls put out their shoes the night of the 5th and they each had a bit of candy in it in the morning. I'm gonna look up the borax snowflakes, cause those look really fun and I always have Borax on hand! (since i use it in my laundry detergent). Besides, I love snowflakes :)
We haven't done much fancy this year, but it has been so fun. Kate and I had our catastrophe on Trax, I guess that was our "Polar Express". And today we wore ourselves out completely sledding and throwing snowballs and delivering goodies to neighbors. It's not the fancy stuff I'd love to do, but I've really enjoyed it :)
I admit I do hate you just a little bit (big wink) because your girls are always impeccably dressed with fancy hair-dos and matching socks and shoes and everything. Today, as just one example, Sabrina went through three outfits -- one being a dress with pants under it. She is wearing two different boots with three different socks (okay, not actually *three* socks, but it would be if she could!) and keeps rubbing her hair on the couch so it stands straight up! *sigh* Impeccable children just isn't in the cards for me, LOL.
