Christmas Eve in PA: Family, Fondue, and TOYS!


Once again sporting his Christmas shirt, Jack is all ready to celebrate the day.

Jack was so excited when his cousins arrived.
And even better, they came bearing gifts.
Alison, Cole, and Matthew each picked out some of their favorite toys from when they were little like Jack. Jack absolutely loves these toys and plays with them every day.
That is the face of a boy in toyland.
Aunt Katie did homemade gifts this year. They were amazing!! Here are the big squishy blocks she made Jack with handles and pockets and cowboy fabric on the back. (She also made Alison the fun apron.)

Uncle John can always get a smile and laugh from Jack.

Thanksgiving in Athens, GA

Jack's first plane ride! He loved it and made friends everywhere he looked.
Eli teaching Jack to throw rocks. Eli is pretty much a professional rock thrower.
The wind up...
reconsiders - perhaps eating the rock is a better idea
Cousins

Yum!
