GG's 90th Birthday Party!

We had a great time at GG's 90th Birthday Party! It was great to see all of my relatives on the Edmondson side together in Elizabethtown! We had some really good food from Paula's Hot Biscuit, and a lot of the kids got to swim in the pool! I know that GG really enjoyed seeing all of her friends and family together...she really liked visiting and looking at all the photos and letters that we had all written. It was a great time, and we look forward to doing this again in 10 years when we celebrate GG's 100th Birthday!

Exchanging Gifts with the Veirs, Vowels, Aunt Janet!

I also had a great time at the Veirs' house! Man was it loud and rambunctious, but it was well worth it! I got some more great gifts (holy cow!!) and the food was great, too! I couldn't believe how much stuff I got...it was just too much! Lilly and Grace were fun as usual, and they really just wanted to hold me and play with me, so that made the night real fun! I can't wait until next Christmas for all the fun again!

Exchanging Gifts with GG!

Boy oh boy, I had a great time exchanging presents at GG's house on Christmas Eve! There were so many of my relatives there to see and hang out with, so that made the evening even more fun than I thought it would be. Of course, the highlight of the night was getting to see GG and Aunt Ruthie...I haven't seen them at my house babysitting because mommy has been home, so I was really missing them!

After we opened some presents and had a good time visiting, I got really hot so I had to take off my sweater and shirt to cool off! Soon after that I got really tired, so mommy and daddy brought me home to get ready for Santa! I fell right to sleep!

Exchanging Gifts with The Roberts!

Christmas Eve is here and we started it off with a blast...we got to exchange presents with the Roberts! Chelsi came over first and boy was I happy to see her! Lori came over soon after, and that was great too! We all had cinnamon rolls and coffee and sat around and talked for a little bit! After that we got to open gifts, and I loved that a lot!

Chelsi bought me a huge box of blocks to play with...too sweet! She got me a Cookie Monster bath towel, too...I was pumped! Daddy was acting silly and put it on his head!

Lori and Everett got me a really cool baseball bat and ball set that I can hit down in the basement....I've got so many toys I don't know what to do with all of them! We had a great time!

Now we're getting ready to go have dinner at The Stone Hearth, going to visit GG and Aunt Ruthie and grandma and granddad and JP and maybe other people, and then nestling down for a long winter's nap! Santa is coming...yaaaahhhh!!!

Exchanging Gifts with Reed and Tate

I had another great night! We went to the Mouser's house for food and fun, and we definitely had a load of fun! After we ate some delicious supper, we all headed downstairs to romp around, play with toys and open gifts...sweet! I was so excited that I got a "Touchdown Rider"...I'll have daddy put a picture of it on the blog sometime. I also got a nice book about Santa...it was really cool! I got Reed a shirt and a book and Tate got 4 Star Wars books...they both liked their gifts alot!

I know that mommy had fun talking with Kim, Tara and Tracey. I know daddy had fun talking ND football with Greg...they are both really big fans! A lot of Kim's family was there, so that was fun hanging out with them and having a great time!

Now I get to look forward to Christmas Eve with the Roberts in the morning, and then GG's in the evening! Of course Christmas will be awesome, too, because Santa is coming to see me! Oh yeah....Molly is due to be here in 7 days tomorrow....WOW!

Exchanging Gifts with Brady!

Man, I had a great time with Brady Abell tonight! We got to eat some good food and play with toys upstairs, and then we went downstairs and opened up gifts! It was a blast! I got a really nice Nativity scene and a an Abby Cadabby DVD...sweet! I got Brady a cool shirt and a 1st Christmas book!

All the adults chased us around the basement while we went through the tunnel, shot basketball, played with the tent and just made a mess like a tornado had come through the house. That's ok though, because my mommy and daddy are used to cleaning up behind me! I'm getting more and more excited because I know that there are only 3 days now until Santa comes to see me! Even better, my little sister Molly is due to be born in just about 9 days...awesome! This is going to be one Christmas to remember!
