Brandon has an announcement to make

Coming July 2011

Santa Visit

Santa came to our house a few weeks ago on a firetruck with Stu's fire department. Bob, Sommer, Sydney, Addion, Dina, Andy, Abby, Tommy, Becky, and Logan were all here to see Santa come to our house. Brandon got a Sesame Street playdough set from Santa which he was so excited about. He wasn't too sure about Santa holding him.

Breakfast With Santa

Two weeks ago we went to breakfast with Santa at Stu's fire house. All morning before we went I would ask Brandon what Santa says and he would say, "ho ho." We got to the breakfast and went to see Santa. He walked up to Santa very willingly until he got two feet away from him. Then he planted his feet and refused to move. I finally got him to give Santa knuckles and a high five. Santa then swept him up onto his lap and Brandon was okay with it.

Logan's Party

Yesterday afternoon we went to Logan's second birthday party. Brandon had a lot of fun at the party. Morgan, Dylan, and Mia (my babysitter's children) were also there so he had a lot of fun playing with them. There was a woman who came to do music with the kids at the party so Brandon enjoyed doing that. He also had fun playing with the slide, play kitchen, and train table at the party. And he loved eating the cake!

Hanukkah

We have been celebrating Hanukkah since it started on Wednesday night. Brandon loves seeing the candles lit each night. The first night he signed more after only one candle was put in the menorah to light.
