Post-Christmas festivities

The week following Christmas was so nice; we just relaxed and did all our favorite holiday activities. One of Kate's favorite things was when we walked up to the park with my dad and Shila. She had the best time on all the slides, but when it was time to go, she was NOT a happy camper! It's always so nice to go to the park with another adult, so one of us can walk her up the stairs to the slide and then one can catch her. It's like when Gail was in Madison in our unseasonably warm November; we went to the playground at the zoo (probably Kate's favorite playground in the whole city), and Kate had so much fun having Grandma Gail catch her as she went down the big red tunnel side. This time with Grandpa was no different.
