Inessa Thanks Santa

(download)

Inessa was so happy for her presents that she wanted to send Santa a personal thank you letter. The letter was left in front of our main door, from where the elves promptly picked it up. She checked the door periodically to make sure Santa gets her letter. When it was gone, she came to tell us that now elves have taken it. She is so adorable.

Inessa did a delicious and beautiful gingerbread house.

As you would expect from a 6-year old, it is all about the candy :)

Beautiful and cozy

These angel figures make the fireplace look even warmer and cozier. Christmas music in the background makes the atmosphere heavenly.

No Christmas is real without traditional Finnish Christmas tarts. Oh, they are so incredibly delicious.
