Jake's first Santa visit 12/5/07

I just woke up from my nap. I really didn't even know I was sitting on Santa's lap.
I let Mommy and Daddy come in to speak to Santa and Mrs Claus. I am not able to say what I want for Christmas, so they gave them ideas for me.


My christmas outfit is very comfortable and I really like my shoes.

Our first family Christmas

Jake's first year decorating the house.
He gave Daddy lots of instructions on how to get the lights just right.

Our first tradition of going to the Gaylord Texan to look at the Christmas decorations.

Nana made sure Jake had his very own Christmas tree. It lights up his room and makes us remember love and family.
