A new blow torch from Santa and a new bike from the parents

Santa knows Lily really well and brought her a blow torch for cooking and baking.  She tried it out immediately with some marshmallows on her hot cocoa and then we moved up to creme brulle the following day.  It was really fun watching her use it.

 

Then the parents went out and finally purchased Lily her first full sized bicycle.  She is at an in between stage right now, but the bike shop in Bonita totally fitted the full sized bike to Lily's specifications and it worked perfectly.  She is even riding on the beach now in the packed sand.  It feels like a brand new day for us parents.
