  • Christmas Day

    Santa came and brought tons of presents. No coal in the stockings – only candy! I sampled some Pez to confirm. Parker got a couple outfits that were a big hit – Darth Vader and a police outfit that he literally wore for 48 hours until we made him take it off.

    Skylar got lots of cool science and drawing games, a Dora kit with cell phone, and they both got electric cars from Hadobogee.

    We stretched it out and didn’t finish opening presents until after 2:00pm. Putting the cars together took a couple hours and we worked up quite a sweat considering it was 75 degrees and raining / humid on Christmas Day!

  • Christmas in Culpeper

    We visited Grandpa’s house first and opened more presents on the day after Christmas. There were 38 people there, including over a dozen kids! It was complete chaos. Later we went to Uncle Gillette’s and visited with Nanna and Poppa D.

  • Miracle on Safa Ct – Christmas

    Mommy’s big gift this year was a movie by Skylar and Parker. We followed the ups and downs of the two young children as they try to find the right gift for their mom. Will they succeed, or will the Grinch steal Christmas… In the end, love triumphs all.

  • Ocean City – Phone Shots

  • Ocean City

    We went to the beach for a week with Halmonee. Skylar and Parker stomped on waves, jumped them, screamed at them, and did the “butt-butt” on them.

    Skylar had a boogie board and we “rode” the waves every day.

    Lots of fun in the sun. We also played in the pool and visited the boardwalk where we got ice cream and checked out some cool sand art.

    Parker wore his Buzz Lightyear costume and as we walked I heard random “Go Buzz!” hollars from the neighboring hotel rooms.
