Merry Christmas

This has been a wonderful holiday season and it seems to have flown by.  We decorated our tree the day before Thanksgiving, so we got to enjoy its beauty for over one month.  Buddy the Elf came back to our house this year to keep on eye on us and report back to Santa each night how well we behaved.  He left us various treats and coins every morning when he returned and it helped us to count down the days until Christmas.  Santa actually called us on the phone to wish us a Merry Christmas and check in on us.  We continued our annual tradition of cruising our neighborhood looking for holiday lights.  We found some great houses and we even saw the house where Santa camps out.  He waved to us and told us Merry Christmas many times.  We saw him work on his naughty/nice list, watched him sort his toys, and we even saw him eat cookies and drink milk.  We ventured over to Brea to see their very festive neighborhood.

We spent Christmas Eve at Grandpa John and Suzanne's where Parker and I got a hot wheels track.  Then we went to Grandma Lu's where I got new vans shoes, a music cd, socks, and several hot wheels sets.  Our last stop was at Mom and Pop's where I got to play with my cousins and we wore our Christmas pjs from Mom and Pop.

On Christmas morning, we woke up with excitement ready to see what treasures were under the tree.  Santa sent us on a scavenger hunt and our surprises were hidden all around the house.  We had to find them with various clues.  It was so much fun.  I got more hot wheels, reading books, an arrow nightlight, and some playing cards.  We spent the rest of the day at Grandma Katy's and Grandpa Al's feasting and opening lots of presents with all of Daddy's side of the family.  I got lots of toys and books.  I am one spoiled (blessed) kid.

I had a wonderful holiday season and I can't wait for next year.

My New Digs

Now that I am 5 years old, Mommy and Daddy allowed me to redecorate my room as my Christmas present.  I got to choose the theme and Mommy designed it.  Yes, I'm obsessed with cars...especially exotic ones.

Festival of Lights at the Mission Inn

The day after Thanksgiving, we met Grandpa John, Suzanne, Joce, Amanda, and Emily at the Mission Inn.  Every year they light over 4 million lights, covering and decorating the Mission Inn.  It was so beautiful and festive.  We drank yummy hot chocolate and we got to meet Santa.  I told him that I wanted a Bugatti and a Hennessey for Christmas.  It was a very magical night.

Happy 5th Birthday

I celebrated my actual birthday with Mommy, Daddy, Parker, and Grandma Lu.  Grandma Lu picked me up from school and we met my family at Farrell's.  We had a yummy dinner and an ice cream sundae.  The entire restaurant sang to me and I loved it.  After Farrell's, Grandma Lu took me to Toy's R Us and I got to buy more hot wheels cars.  I had a great birthday celebration!

NHRA Winternationals

Since I love race cars so much, Mommy got us tickets to the NHRA Winternationals.  It was so much fun.  We had special passes into the DHL professional pit and we got to meet the team and the driver.  The races were so powerful, I could feel the pounding of speed against my body and I had to wear ear plugs to muffle the sound.  It was a great day, I can't wait to go again next year.

Happy Halloween

Halloween was a lot of fun this year.  Grandpa Itz and Mr Skeleton joined our family and we were not afraid at all.  They did scare some of our guests though.  I was a race car driver and my brother was a monster truck.  Mommy and Daddy made our costumes.  We went trick or treating with my friend Dylann.  It turned out to be a nice night and we got a bunch of candy.  Yum!

Happy Birthday to Me

We celebrated my 5th birthday early this year.  For the last 3 years, it has rained on my birthday and Mommy wanted some guaranteed sunshine for my 5th birthday party, so we had it on October 5th.  It was a race car themed party and we had so much fun.  We had some race cars come and give us rides.  My cousin Monique made my race car cake out of cupcakes.  It was fun filled, festive day.
