Christmas, 2007
Well, Christmas has come and gone. Grandma and Grandpa have flown back to Kansas City, Charlie went back to daycare and his friends, and I can, once again, have control of the tv.
This Christmas was very special, as it was the first one that Charlie really understood and got excited about. Anyone who met him and asked was informed that he wanted a "Monorail Green" from Santa. And, that's what he got. Christmas morning was amazing, seeing Charlie's jaw drop when he walked in the living room. He didn't know what to play with first.
And of course, he also get a choo choo, a set of Disney buses, a Space Shuttle, 18 piece airplane set, target shooting game, Chutes and Ladders and Candyland, a Contemporary hotel model for the monorail (my prize find this Christmas).
and a helicopter from the movie "Cars"
We had some good outtings with the family. A trip to Epcot for dinner at the Germany Biergarten, an evening at Disney MGM Studios to see the Osbourn Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights, and a trip to Cocoa Beach. Grandpa wanted to put his feet in the Atlantic ocean, so we rounded everyone up and drove over.
Needless to say, Charlie didn't stay dry, and had a blast.
Of course, there was lots of time spent just relaxing, with Charlie sitting with his best friends.
But, now, it's over. Of course, Charlie cried when we dropped Grandma and Grandpa off at the airport, and cried even bigger when I left the daycare. But, tonight, we played Space Shuttle, watched some rocket videos on the computer, and played with the "Thomas the Tank Engine bath squirters" during bath time.
Once again, all is calm, all is bright.

Glad that Charlie's Grandma and Grandpa was able to make it down and have memories for all of you to store in memory lane, and maybe they had a chance to "thaw out" a little while with you. MississippiKin
