Christmas in IL 2010

Since it was the year for Christmas in WI, we went to Illinois for New Year's, but to celebrate Christmas. Got that? Casey's gran was in town the whole week and she was thrilled to see Mallory and FINALLY meet Abigail.
I think the definition of "grandmother" probably includes "one who fills your pocket with Skittles".
The little red boot on Meme's tree is always filled with a tasty treat. Miniature candy canes, M&Ms ... this year it was Skittles. Mallory had no trouble spotting it.
I have no pictures of our gift opening. Silly, I know. But here are a couple randoms for you.

Mallory was at the counter quietly coloring with markers. Apparently she was also quietly opening 3 sticks of butter and sticking her fingers in each one. Eww.

And Jack... causing mischief.
