It's Christmas time!!!!!
Nothing beats Christmas.
You've got family.
You've got friends.
You've got traditions both sacred and silly.
And everyone is just a little
bit nicer.
And, of course, you've got the Christmas music!!!!
Well, around here we've
really been getting into the
holiday spirit...
Kale has taken on the tactic
of hiding in a corner
so he stays out of trouble
and in Santa's (and mommy's)
good graces.
And of course he
flashes those
blue eyes at me and I melt.
I'm sure Santa does too.
Kale loves to turn the Christmas lights on and off.
He also loves to touch the lights,
and shake the tree;
oh, and eat the fake "needles"
that fall off the tree.
Goober.
He looks a little bit creepy here...
This past Saturday was our
ward Christmas party.
There was tons of yummy
food to eat, and I would say close
to our whole ward showed up.
Part way through the
program, Santa came to visit the kids.
And so, we thought we'd
introduce Kale to him for the first time.....
At first he was unsure...
He had some concerns,
so he looked to Dad
for guidance...
Santa let him play with his bells,
but Kale knew they
weren't the real ones like
on Polar Express....
And then he decided he really just didn't like
this guy.
Poor kid was shaking like a leaf!
Classic Christmas picture though :)
And that has been
our Christmas celebration thus far.
In other news,
I asked Kale what he'd like
for breakfast this morning,
and both Tyler and I swear he said,
"Hmmm, my poop."
Hilarious!
He's growing up fast.
Merry Christmas everyone!
