'Twas the night before Christmas

To add some festivity to our lives, we spent last night celebrating the Christmas holidays with some friends.  Black bean soup, tortillas, spinach salad, vino, gooey butter cake.  To prep the pad for guests, Jas decided to try out being a chimney sweeper. 

Seemed like a natural thing to do.  You know, take pictures of Jas with a chimney brush. Come on, don't you want to sing some Mary Poppins?  Maybe jump in the air a bit?  I know we did.  And man. Was it FUN.

Sol also got to open one present before bed- to keep with the Graf family tradition, it was from his godmother.  Cam, we love you.

Once he got that box open, watch out!  Sol ripped off his Halloween rendition of a firefighter hat, plopped the brand new one on his head, and became the happiest little boy ever.  EVER.

We also got to hear Sol do some reading of The Night Before Christmas.  This kid.  I mean, man.  He's something else.

Unfortunately, we were slow on the taping and didn't manage to get Sol's version.  BUT.  Here's a quick little ditti from the day of slimme.  Ooey, gooey, sliiimme.
