Christmas x3

2015-12-28

I have about four times as many pictures as usual this week since I had three Christmas celebrations. So let's get started.

Mommy and I are still staying with Grandma Wynne and Grandpa Al. I put some more ornaments on the tree, and we went out for lunch at the train restaurant and the owner let me blow the train whistle!

On Tuesday I opened some early presents from Great-grandma Joan and Great-grandpa Eldon.

What's in the box?

Belle!

Belle and Spencer!

Wednesday was Christmas Eve, which means we went to Great-grandma Darlene's house. I saw Max and Gunnar and Yulia and Vincent and all the usual grown-ups. And we opened some presents!

Me and Max.

A new tractor!

A tiny little excavator!

Christmas morning I opened presents before Grandpa Al went to work - just like Daddy and Uncle Neil did when they were little.

This is my Christmas Morning Face.

A bridge for my trains!

A LEGO police station!

Emily!

After opening presents at Grandma Wynne and Grandpa Al's, we went to Great-grandpa Les and Great-grandma Muriel's for a full day of Christmas.

Mommy and I stayed at Great-grandma and Great-grandpa's Thursday night through Saturday afternoon. We played cards and trains and watched Thomas and Mighty Machines - we even ventured out in the snow for a little while.

Sunday was time for another Christmas party, this one at Great-grandma Dorothy's tower. Lots of cookies and more presents!

That's me.

I think I've had enough Christmas for one year.

Daddy's had enough, too.

And I think that's it for Christmas this year. Mommy and I are still out visiting for another week, and then we'll be home with Daddy so I can go back to school.

It was great seeing everybody this week - and thanks again for all of the awesome presents!

Take care everyone! Have a safe and happy New Year!
