I got exactly what I asked for from Santa for Christmas! I asked for a galaxy phone case for my phone (well, Mommy's old iPhone), a pop-socket for it, and donut earrings I'd seen at Claire's. I was so super excited to get this! Mommy and Daddy, like usual, made us wait for a long time at the top of the stairs before we could go look at everything Santa left for us. It was worth the wait because I really like what all I got!
We went to the Japanese Stroll Gardens again this year before Christmas and it was fun! They have it all decorated with Christmas lights and it's so pretty! We went the last two years and each year I took a bunch of pictures so had to again this year! I love all the lights!
We went to Kansas City for Christmas last week and we got to play this really super fun game that Gramma has. It's an elf madlibs game! We played it a few years ago and it was so much fun! You have this elf and it asks you questions like "what's your favorite teacher's name" or "how do you describe a rainy day" and other things like that. You answer it and then the elf tells you the story. It's so funny and so much fun! I'm glad we got to play it! You can watch us here!
I got a letter back from Santa! Me and Molly both sent him a letter a few weeks ago and he replied to us! It was super fun to find it in our mailbox and then open it and read it! He said I was on the nice list! Woohoo!!!
I had to do a service project for my WINGS class. They gave us a lot of suggestions on what we could do and the one I chose was to make welcome baskets for the Ronald McDonald House. The Ronald McDonald House is a place where people can stay if they have a kid staying in the hospital. It's kind of like a hotel but people can stay there for free and be really close to the hospital.
I went over to the Ronald McDonald House before I started working on my project to make sure it was okay to do and they said yes, so I started working on it. Mommy helped me to fill out my Service Project Plan and then we figured out when we would do everything. I decided to put these things in the bags: cookies, bottled water, candy, microwave popcorn, and a gift card to Panera because Panera is really close to the house. Gramma and Grampa Wiseman helped me with the gift cards!
I made five bags and put everything together and then Mommy, Molly, and I delivered them after Thanksgiving. The lady who I gave them to was really thankful to have received them! I also have to give a presentation to my class about my project so I put together some Google slides with all my pictures and information.
One night I pretended to be Santa and had Molly, Daddy, and Mommy come sit on my lap and tell me what they want for Christmas! It was a lot of fun and you can watch us here!
I wrote a letter to Santa and got to put it in a mailbox that's in our neighbor's yard! They put out a Santa mailbox and make sure the letters get to Santa at the North Pole! I'm glad I got to write a letter to Santa because I thought of more things I wanted from him after I saw him so now with the letter I got to let him know! I hope he writes me back!
