Merry Christmas!

12/28/12

Dear Jake,

 Merry Christmas! Although you were a little too young to understand all of the festivities, you sure caught the Christmas spirit and loved every minute. That is except for the one minute that you sat on Santa's lap! You were not very happy about that! You "helped" your Mom and Dad put up a beautiful tree and you were actually pretty good about just looking at it. You danced to all the Christmas carols and you were proud to tell everyone that Santa says, "Ho, Ho, Ho! "

Every morning when you wake up you always seem surprised that all of your toys are still there. So on Christmas morning you sure were surprised that more toys had appeared. You loved every one of them but the apple that Santa placed in your stocking was worth taking a break to eat! 

My favorite part of this Christmas was watching how much fun your Mom and Dad had making this a special memory for you. Poppa and I always loved making Christmas special in our home as did your Poppa and Nanny Gorra. It is wonderful to see that your Mom and Dad will be carrying the tradition on!
Love, Grammy

It's a Small World!

Dear Jake, 

We have some serious catching up to do on our blog!  The month of November just flew by! Your Mom, Dad, Poppa and I went to Disney World with you. You were such a good boy on your first airplane ride and the people mover in the airport was fascinating to you! We stayed at the Polynesian Resort and you fit right in with your Hawaiian shirt! The first ride we went on was, "It's a Small World" and when we saw the smile on your face we all knew that it was worth the trip. You loved every minute and even managed to "honk" Mickey Mouse's big nose! The highlight for me was when you saw me in the hotel and said, "Grandmum" for the first time! My heart melted!

The next week we spent Thanksgiving on the Cape at Aunt Terese and Uncle Dan's house. It was a 2 day celebration  full of food and fun as it always is at the Heintzelman's. We were all most thankful that Great Grandma Crowley has been feeling so                                                                             healthy!
