Holidaze....

Guess who fell behind in updating her blog?! Yup, it was Catherine Hannah!! It's been a great few weeks that started with a party in Monterey for Catherine's Great Aunt Joan and gave us a chance to hang out with Aunt Megan, Uncle Toph, and Cousin Elle. A week later, Catherine boarded a plane and flew to North Carolina to celebrate Christmas with the Bolands. After searching for weeks to find Santa Claus, where did he finally turn up? In the Charlotte airport, of course. Catherine shared some quality time with Jolly ol' Saint Nick in a rocking chair in front of a Jamba Juice. Inspired by her visit with Santa, Catherine fulfilled one of the oldest Christmas traditions around - she dressed up in a Santa suit and rode a giant wooden giraffe.

After opening presents on Christmas morning, Catherine got the chance to hang out on the back porch with her cousin Spiderman! (known also as Aidan)

Back home in California, Catherine was up to her old tricks, mugging shamelessly for the camera. She wishes you all a Happy New Year, and she's looking forward to smilng with you in 2009!
