Introducing my very best friend Emily. She is an extended member our family and could not be more awesome.
North Pole Train ride on the Hill Country Flyer complete with hot chocolate & cookies, story telling, carolers, and a visit from Mr and Mrs Claus. I shouldn't be surprised by this but Andrew was overwhelming more enthusiastic about the led flash light I had in my purse that he used to blind the passengers in the train and homeowners that reside alongside the railroad track.
I was every bit as excited as this kiddo to see the big man until I saw what he was handing out...
Um yeah. That is a train whistle. Kind of cute at first. A little annoying after a few minutes but darn right excruciating after Santa finished handing them out to the other 20 children in our train car. 
Santa Claus threw up in our living room.
Thats right folks. The living room is overflowing with gifts and this kid is absolutely ecstatic... over a box of juice.
I am guessing the neighbors won't either.
Hallelujah everybody say cheese... Merry Christmas... from the family!
My dad is also lost in the sea of wrapping paper in this picture but I had to crop him out because his facial expression kind of made him look like he was in pain. Sorry Bob!
It looks like you had a wonderful Christmas. I bet the train ride was fun and now with the drums you probably don't have to worry about the whistle anymore. Just curious if you know how tall Andrew is? He looks like he is as tall as Abbi. Please give Andrew a big hug from his Aunt Mary. I wish we lived close enough for me to do it myself. We love you guys
ReplyDeleteDear Todd and Family,
ReplyDeleteI love your blog, and I don't know your wife's name. She is beautiful, and Andrew is a handsome boy, he looks like his dad I think. It looks as if you were all on Santa's nice list, your Christmas looks fun. I will be keeping in touch with you through your great blog.
Love Aunt Caren
Looks like y'all had a great Christmas. Reminds me of when Cole was our only child (more money to spend on just one!). I bet the train ride was fun. We did a Polar Express train ride last year and had a blast. The kids got bells which were a lot better I think than the train whistle! Hope to see y'all soon!
