White Christmas

We had a great Christmas this year! Elkin had a great time getting his cookies and milk ready for Santa and carrots ready for the reindeer. He's come such a long way with his food issues and much to our delight didn't have any problems sharing the cookies with the big guy this year.



Santa brought Elkin a farm set this year and Elkin was a very happy boy.



Elkin loved lining up his presents from Mami & Papi and could barely stop himself from digging in before I could take a quick picture. I think his favorite was a Mack truck (from the movie Cars) and all the books he got.



We got a ton of snow on Christmas Eve and Christmas morning and we weren't sure if we should venture out to go see Grandma & Grandpa. We went ahead and went for it and made it there safely despite how treacherous the roads were. Elkin had a very fun time modeling his new "outfit" he got for Christmas from Grandma & Grandpa.



Elkin got some very cool finger puppets from Grandma Pat. Mami LOVES these finger puppets and puts on plays with them on a regular basis. Even if no one else is watching. Sigh. At least I got a captive audience for my first play.



We got stuck a few times while in Eudora so we decided to stay the night until some of the roads were clear. We got home to some pretty big drifts in front of the house.



Elkin had a great time sledding in the back yard with the sled we swiped from Grandpa.



Overall, despite the weather, we all had a very merry Christmas. Here's to many more!
