I was soooooo excited for Santa last night! We left him some skim milk (because I didn’t want him to have my whole milk) and some yummy chocolate chip cookies!

This morning, instead of going right to the tree, I went to the deck to check for reindeer tracks!!! I got a lot of good stuff and I’m so happy!

Enjoy the pics! Merry Christmas Everyone! Miss and love you all! 🙂

This Christmas was celebrated early to work around everyone’s schedules, but hey, I’m not going to complain about multiple days of presents! Nanny and Grandpa got here on December 10 so I got to spend a LOT of time with them and I even had 7.5 days of Becky! I’m so thankful everyone game to see me!

We all knew this Christmas was going to be a little different without Mal, but we did the best we could without her. We definitely felt her during the days and she even let her presence be known with a Redskins win and some snow on Christmas Eve, Mal sure loved snow. We had a great time being together and spending time with one another. I know I definitely had fun with everyone and enjoyed all my new presents! Especially my Read-Along Thomas books from Rhonda, my new Thomas quilt that Becky made, and my bike from Nanny and Grandpa!!!!!!!! I even got a quilt from Mal that she managed to finish, that was a great surprise to everyone.

We love you Mal!

Oh, and yeah, if you can’t see it, that is a BIG BROTHER shirt I have on! 🙂

Still hard to write much, but we are enjoying the new house and I definitely LOVE getting ready for Christmas!

Last Halloween in Floyd, I enjoyed my time with MiMi, Mr. Alan, and my FAV Ms. Jessica!

LOVE JESSICA!!!! She gave me popcorn and we played with Scout!!! I sure do miss her!

Enjoying a great weekend with Mommy and Dad! We made a silly pumpkin and went to the playground at the school I will attend in a few years!

It’s hard to write this knowing Mal won’t comment, Mom doesn’t even know what to say. We all miss her like crazy and we’ve been trying to find a new way to be there for each other. Pap has been coming to see me a lot, I love him so much! He’s helped us a lot in our new house and we’ve had some great times together building things, playing in the game room, walking, and so much more. I talk about Mal a lot, hopefully that helps everyone. I even picked up a place for her to sit at our table for Christmas. I have lots of things that will help me remember her and memories of her love that will last always.

Ummm…so, while mom while otherwise engaged I totally got her phone, spelled by name on her keyboard with some numbers, and sent it to Aunt Rhonda! Needless to say mom was a little shocked, so here’s a video of me showing her how I sent my name to dad!
