Merry Christmas
Christmas morning we opened presents and Noah must have been a very good boy this year! Santa got him a small drum set, but it doesn’t make a small noise, that’s for sure!!! It has already made its way upstairs in his new room! Santa also got him a puzzle, a couple of books and a farm set.
Rick’s parents came down before the snow started flying. They are hoping to leave on Sunday, but we’ll see how the roads are before they take off. They, of course, spoiled Noah! He got a pop-up tent, a firetruck, puzzle, a bowling set and a couple of Hot Wheels.
After lunch, Rick thought he’d start scooping the driveway. Must have been a good time for all the neighbors because most of them on our block were all outside starting to scoop. Rick’s Dad even went out and helped for a while. It still took them awhile to get it all done!
Today, Noah wanted to go for a walk. He just kept saying, “walk, walk, walk”, over and over again. So Rick and his Dad ventured out to look for some snow boots – they actually just wanted to check out the roads. They headed to Walmart, but they were sold out of boots and sleds, so off they went to Target. They found some boots there – we would have liked a bigger size, but they only had one size, so we got those. They are a size 5, which is what Noah is wearing now, so at least they work.
So we bundled Noah up and headed outside. At first he didn’t know what to think of all the snow, then he started getting into it! We put him in a box and slid him down the driveway, which he seemed to really like. Then Noah still wanted to go for his walk and he headed down the street. I guess he was serious when he was saying he wanted a walk!!
Well, I don’t think we will be heading anywhere this year. This is the first year I won’t be with my family for Christmas, so it’s diffidently different. I do have lots of candy that I made, so that’s the plus side!!! Not that I need it, but I figure I have an excuse…I just keep blaming it on the little girl!!
Hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas and is staying warm!!!
