Christmas 2016, Part 2
Merry Christmas to you all!
Even though we celebrated Christmas last week with Xavier's Grandma Penny and Aunt Chelle, we still had some gifts in reserve for Christmas Day.
The first set came from Xavier's Aunt Kathy. She sent her gifts ahead of her arrival, which should be tomorrow. We called her on the phone so she could at least hear Xavier's excitement at opening his gift from her.
Xavier was excited! He had picked at this present all morning. While we caught up with Aunt Kathy's plans, Xavier sneakily kept undoing parts of the wrapping. Finally we let him have at it. It turned out to be a drill and screw gun combo. He knew exactly what it was and what to do with it. It was a gift that stole the day.
Next was Grandpa Danny's present. Though we could not get Dan on the phone, Xavier still ripped into the large package with the same gusto he did with the drill.
Xavier had not seen Lincoln Logs before. He had no idea what to do with them. It was Dad to the rescue. We opened the box and built a house.
Xavier knocked the house over. Then we built a second. This time, Xavier got engaged. He wanted to put the doors and windows in. Then, upon getting the last window in, Winter Storm Xavier demolished the house.
Now, we build houses that form tunnels for Hot Wheels track and garages for Hot Wheels cars.
