My Big Family Christmas

Santa Claus came to my house!!!!! I got tools and a tool box and a tool belt and a construction worker hat. I’m so excited.

Oh, wait. Daddy and Mommy say I’m supposed to talk about how almost my whole family was here for Christmas. Geike, Uncle Morgan, Aunt Amy, Taylor and Aunt Rachel all came. We all went to Nana and Poppa’s house for lots of food and presents. Uncle Dick and Aunt Judy were in from Connecticut for the week. Uncle Steve came down and Uncle Mike and Aunt Michelle came up with all my cousins — Zack, Brandon, Noah, Halley, Rilee and my new cousin Bella.

I think that covers everyone who was here. I forget. After all, there were so many presents to open.

I was bummed that Santa forgot to bring me safety goggles. Safety goggles are very important when using tools. But then Daddy showed me the movie where I asked Santa for presents and I forgot to ask for safety goggles. I still think Santa should know better than to bring a little boy tools without bringing him safety goggles, but I guess I should have asked.

So Mommy and Daddy took me to the man store … Lowes … and bought me safety goggles yesterday.

Anyway, Daddy put up a HUGE photo gallery with all kinds of pictures. There are some really good ones of me and my cousin Taylor. There are even pictures of me shaving with my new shaving kit that Mommy and Daddy bought me.

Mommy and Daddy say I’m supposed to thank everyone for all my presents. I started to list them, but Daddy said the length of the page would crash the server … whatever that means. So, thank you everybody for the books and the jammies and the cars and trucks and trains and animals and tools and stuff. This was the best Christmas ever … mainly because I knew what was going on this year, but you get the point.

Go see my pictures here and leave comments. I love comments. Tell me what you got for Christmas!

Pancakes With Santa Claus

Mommy and Daddy took me to see Santa Claus today. We had pancakes with him at the zoo. I got to sit on Santa’s lap and tell him what I want for Christmas. Daddy has a video of it he’ll put up this weekend sometime. In the meantime, there are some pictures up now in the Grant Galleries.

Daddy has been slacking again. He finally put up pictures from Brandon’s birthday skating party where I learned to roller skate, some from the day my buddy Nate and me went to Bardstown to the train museum and some other Christmas pictures decorating Nana’s house.

The Christmas pictures have Uncle Steve’s birthday picture and some taken Saturday of me playing cars and trucks with Uncle Dick, who is in town with Aunt Judy for Christmas. Daddy promises he’ll add the Christmas pictures faster this time. Almost everybody in the family is going to be here. I can’t wait!

It's Almost Christmas!

Mommy and Daddy and I put up our new Christmas tree last weekend. Daddy actually helped, which Mommy and Geike say is some sort of record. Daddy says he hasn’t decorated anything for Christmas in 16 years. I’m not sure how many that is, but it sounds like a lot.

I got to hang my first ornament, too. We have a very pretty tree. Mommy bought it and it only took her and Daddy five minutes to put it up. Daddy says it’s the folding chair of Christmas trees, whatever that means.

There are a couple of new picture galleries up, too. One of us hanging ornaments on the tree, one of Thanksgiving at my Geike’s house and one of a bunch of Halloween pictures. I was a fireman. Daddy should have put the pictures up a long time ago, but he went on a big trip and forgot.

Check out the pictures in the Grant Galleries. And leave comments! I love comments.
