Christmas 2011

Shhhhh......today is April 5th....Good Friday....and I am just now getting around to posting our Christmas 2011 pictures.....SO much has been going on ever since....ever since...well March of 2009.....and there are no signs of it slowing down anytime soon. We have a day trip to Austin planned for next weekend. Nicholas (as well as Lisa and I) will get to meet his cousin Sarah for the first time. She was born the day after we were named Nicholas' parents....so his Gotcha Day is April 13th and Sarah's birthday is April 14th. Kinda cool.....

Checking out how Santa will get into the house tonight

Telling us the path Santa will be taking..

Proudly displaying his offerings for the one we call "Santa".

A closer look shows the cookies he baked with Mommy and note he wrote with Daddy
and of course the milk in the Frosty straw cup.

"I can't believe Santa didn't finish all of the cookies!"

Mommy turned the milk into chocolate milk so Nicholas could finish of the cookies
to start Christmas morning off in style!

...and now the putting together of the new toys!

Schnapps the Elf!

Sabian the Elf!

ONE more present! The big one.....close your eyes...this is going to be so great!!

A helmet and a basket?? What are these for??

Here it is!! Your new bike!!!.......this bike was unfortunately broken 23 minutes later causing Daddy to take it back to Wal-Mart and then go to Target to get a brand new Schwinn bike with training wheels....LONG story LONGER.....the boy was too scared to stay on the bike with training wheels without having a 'Death-Grip' on Mommy or Daddy's arm....After a few tries we decided not to force the issue and have placed the bike in the garage until he is ready....
