Three Christmases

Ok - so here's our attempt at catching up!

Santa was very busy this year making THREE stops for the Brian Goodman family.

The morning of Sunday, Dec. 13 Santa visited our house for our Brian, Chilly, Lilly and Buttercup Christmas. He surprised Lilly with an all-terrain Radio Flyer wagon. Brian and Lilly took many a ride around the living room. Santa was also very generous to Chilly gifting her a scanner/photo printer and he gave Brian some wardrobe updates and Buttercup got a feather boa toy.

A few days later we had Christmas again with Brian's family. Gramma Dana gave Lilly her favorite children's book: The Paper Bag Princess, a good tale about a strong and independent woman.

Then we headed off to Virginia for Christmas with Chilly's family. Lilly received her Chicco walker and she took her first steps but she really enjoyed her present from Auntie Arisa - RODY! Rody - who looks more like a donkey than a horse can hold up to 400 lbs and we all had a good time bouncing around on Rody. The Dellingers joined the Tinaves family for dinner Christmas Eve and everyone enjoyed watching Lilly open presents Christmas morning. Unfortunately Bruno, Arisa's pup was not allowed to join us because Lilly was terrified of the mini-dachshund.

We did get to speak to Auntie Bubs over in Thailand on Christmas Day. She regaled us with her version of why Santa doesn't visit Thailand. Her students questioned Santa's exi stence and if he did exist why he didn't visit Thailand. Why doesn't Santa visit Thailand? According to Bubs it is because the Thais burn their trash adding to the global warming situation which is melting the North Pole, where Santa lives. So if you want to see Santa in Thailand you better start recycling! You can read: http://www.grahamandbubs.blogspot.com/ for more of Bubs and Graham's adventures in Thailand!
