Mommy and Daddy's day off

Since Grammy is in town to babysit, Mommy and Daddy were lucky enough to sneak away for an afternoon of fun all to themselves!
We took our '74 Toyota Landcruiser out for some rock crawling at Hidden Falls Park in Marble Falls. Daddy with his other "baby."

Early present

Everyone needs new Christmas jammies and slippers!

Santa's early visit

Our great friends invited us to their home because they had a special visitor coming over....SANTA! Every year, Santa comes to their home to let the good little boys and girls sit on his lap and tell him what they want for Christmas.
Future girlfriend Madison Clare. Landon still leary of the big man in red.
He finally calmed down when Mama served as bodyguard.
Because Landon's been such a good little boy, Santa brought him an early present....a Thomas the Tank Train Book!

Santa's Arrival!

Every year, the city of Kyle puts on a wonderful celebration to kick off the Christmas holiday season!
The Kyle Fire Department ushered Santa into town on their big, red fire engine. However, by this time we've already been waiting in line for 30 minutes to get a picture with Santa. Landon behaved pretty well, considering there were dozens of strollers and wagons to tempt him with their wheels!
When it was our turn to see Santa, Landon wasn't too thrilled to be left in the arms of a stranger...
... so Mama swooped in to save the day.
After waiting in line forever, only to be ditched in the arms of a large, old man with a long beard, we decided Landon deserved some down time. We found a safe place for him to roam and let 'em loose.
He had a typical "healthy" festival dinner of hamburgers and corn dogs ;)
He was super excited to watch some teenage boys riding skateboards...is this a sign of days to come?
Daddy and his co-pilot.

New favorite activity...

Going grocery shopping!
