CHRISTMAS 2007

You finally realized what Christmas is all about this year. You understood that Santa brings you the gifts christmas morning and that if you wernt good you wouldnt be getting any gifts. I used this theory towards you quite a bit these last couple of weeks. It worked like a charm everytime!
I never did get you to sit on santas lap and the letter that you wrote him didnt get published in the paper either which makes me kinda mad. You had a great time driving around looking at all of the christmas lights and walking thru locomotive park a couple of times.
Christmas eve Grandma Sheila Grandma Smith Papa Keith Uncles RJ Chase and Cameron all came over to dinner. You didnt eat your dinner of course and then when it came time to open presents you were very excited. You loved all of the stuff you got. After Papa and Uncles left we took grandma smith and drove around looking at all of the christmas lights and you fell asleep after the first house, you sure were tired. Because you were asleep I didnt get to read you The Night Before Christmas, this is the first time that you havent got to hear it before going to bed on Christmas eve.
Christmas morning you were up from one until almost five and then fell back asleep and got up at ten to finally open your presents. You were so excited about santa coming, after you opened them you had no time to play with them because we had to get ready to go to weippe. On the way up there you got car sick twice, it was awful. After we got there and you had a little chance to recover you were glad to be able and run around with your cousins and play. After dinner we got to open presents again so you had fun doing that. On the way home you fell asleep so when you woke up the next morning it was like christmas all over again because you had forgotten about all of your gifts. I am glad that you liked Christmas so much this year, hopefully they get better and better for you as the years go on.
