Every year I make plans to celebrate Christmas with all kinds of bonding time activities with Andrew. Making sugar cookies, seeing the Christmas lights, making a gingerbread house, zoolights, temple lights, watching great Christmas movies, decorating the tree etc. We end up doing most of those things but they seem hurried and not quite the picture perfect activities of magazines. Oh well, Andrew loves the traditions with all their flaws. We were lucky to have Becky in town to help make tamales (maybe Becky will post the pictures on her blog since I didn't take any) and Jared to take Andrew to Sportsman's Warehouse during the process. Mom wants to share the tamales but I say NO Way! Andrew got a mountain of gifts as always. His favorites are the Air Hog Helicopters, Nerf gun and new Flip video camcorder.
We have been making videos all day and posting them to you tube (he will tell you more on his blog). The Flip camera is a lot of fun and so easy to use expect to see lots of videos in the future. We may go down to Tucson overnight for a quick trip. Grandma's close friend lost her husband over the holidays so we don't want to venture to far from home. Andrew was decided he doesn't want to see snow since that will be his claimed to fame (I tried to tell him that millions of people have never seen snow so he will not be unique but there is no arguing with him). Here are a couple of pictures
