Merry Christmas

Well, now I think I have finally figured out what Christmas is about... really big guns! Isn't this thing huge?! It's three nerf guns that can be attached to make one big gun. That rocket (orange and black) on the front goes 60 feet! He loves it! I'm a little concerned we're going to break a window with this thing. :-)

Grandma Judi and Grandpa Lee got him the biggest Lego set ever! -- which is exactly what he wanted. All YEAR I've been listening to him say he wants Legos, lots of Legos, and his very own (not sharing with Alex) Legos. He finally got what he really wanted! Thank you Grandma Judi and Grandpa Lee!

The kids opening gifts from Aunt Bridget.

More Transformers for Sam! Turns out his happiness level is directly proportional to the number of Transformers he owns. :-) So, you know, he's pretty happy now.

Our backyard this time of year, almost finished with Fall.

Our neighbor's pecan trees. I always think they're so pretty in winter.

This is a drawing Sam drew of the San Antonio temple (pictured below). You can see the tower, the doors and windows at the bottom, and the Angel Moroni statue at the top. The interesting part is the brown line he drew around the whole thing. I asked him what it was, he said it was the special protective force field that is protecting the temple. We told him that he's actually pretty accurate. :-) He loves going to the temple, and has begged (and convinced) us to take him again this week.
