First Christmas

It has been an exciting last few days.  Santa and friends were very good to David.  We started the holiday tour at our house where Santa brought David a red tricycle.  He was not to sure what to do as we piled presents in front of him.  Just as he was getting the hang of the process, the presents were all opened.  Emily then made us some pancakes as David learned about gravity when he turned his tricycle too fast.

Round 2 was at Papa and Mammy's house.  David got to play with his cousins some more, and when we told him it was time to open presents, he came running.  What a quick study!  David spent the rest of the afternoon cooking in the play kitchen and hanging out with family.  That evening we just relaxed and put things in order for round 3.

The final stop was in Tulsa to see Poppy, Granna, and Andrea.  Scott and Andrea recently added a German Shepherd to their family, and David was excited to play with Zisa.  As you would expect, David proved even more adept at the present routine the third time around.  He really enjoyed playing "Santa" by passing presents out to everyone.  David was doing pretty well when he received a Longhorns shirt only to have that topped when he unwrapped a totally, awesome Star Wars playset!  David spent the rest of the weekend helping with the cooking, playing with Zisa, and generally reveling in being the center of attention.  It was a quick four days, but well worth it!

Talk to you guys later,

Kyle and Emily

P.S.- David told us that he appreciated the enormous (We are talking small mountain.) amount of toys that he received, but in the future he would like to have a few less toys and more money to put in his college savings account.  We are so proud that he is already making plans for his future!
