Christmas Cheer and Antics

This is a picture taken in November at Woodland Hills Mall. We have a great pic with Santa at Utica Square but my scanner isn't cooperating. So this will do. It's Christmas Eve. We have nothing we have to do today and I want to start reading a new book (thank you Noah!) but the book has vanished. I've spent over an hour searching the house, the trash, etc. So here's my theory: Baker has hidden my new book. His story keeps changing: "It's a mystery!" "I'm sorry I hid your book." "Maybe Coffee (our Elf on the Shelf) hid the book?" "I didn't like that book." I just told him he has to find the book before I make him breakfast...we'll see if that shakes him up.
