Santa Claus came to town

Santa was flexible this year and came to visit Oliver one night early so that he could play with his toys for an entire day before we flew to Utah for a visit with my family. Oliver had a great Christmas. He received the car he has been asking for, new cars and trucks for his car table, a bookshelf with lots of new books, a portable DVD player and a large set of building blocks. I learned a good lesson on Oliver's birthday, so I had a talk with Santa and suggested that he not wrap his presents this year. That Santa is one flexible fella! Clayton's parents were able to drive down to see Oliver open his presents this morning and then were able to spend the day with us. Clayton's sister Tricia and her son Ace came over later in the day to share a Christmas Eve meal with us. Thanks for coming everyone, we had a great time. Merry Christmas everyone!
