Christmas at home

Luke and I made cookies for Santa on Christmas Eve. Santa must have liked them because he only left half a cookie.

It was nice to wake up on Christmas day in our own house, but it was a little strange too. 

There were so many new things for Luke to play with it, it took the whole day to open all the gifts.

It was so much fun to watch Luke open and play with his gifts.

Christmas in Houston

We celebrated Christmas a few days early in Houston.  It was chilly, but the sun was out on Friday. Luke had a fun time sweeping up the leaves in the backyard.

He was amazed by his cousin Brandon's magic tricks.

This year he got the whole present concept and did an awesome job opening everything.

Gramps and Grandma Terry gave him an electric train set.  Man was this a hit!  Even his cousins Michael and Daniel were mesmerized.

Distmas Dee!

We put up our Christmas tree after we got back from our Thanksgiving trip to Charlotte.  After we decorated it Luke helped Brad put the star on the top.  He gets so excited to turn the lights on the tree. The first thing he said when he woke up the day after we put it up was "I want see distmas dee!"

We didn't have any presents under the tree until yesterday.  Luke noticed them right away and when we asked him where they came from he said "Santa!"  Then he insisted on giving some of the gifts a ride in his car.
