Ohhh, I like it
This Christmas season is going to be so fun. Everything is so new for Brooklyn. Last year she had only been home a few months prior to Christmas. She loved it but did not really understand it.
Yesterday we put up the tree while she was napping. The first comment out of her mouth when she discovered it was "Ohhh, I like it."
We had a wonderful evening last night putting the ornaments on. John even managed to get the outside lights up.

Never a dull moment!
What's a guy to do with a few hours on his hands? Well....build a flying car of course. This is Kade's latest invention. Yep, it is a flying car complete with "Clearer" to keep people away when he starts the engine. :0)
