Meg's baptism
We were so fortunate to have Chris & Steve in town for Meg's baptism, and lots of friends from our cul-de-sac. Here is a picture of Meg in the family Christening gown that my Aunt Linda made and the sun bonnet that Meg Dalton made for her little namesake.

Medieval Times
This was DEFINITELY the highlight of our little jouster's trip. He actually included "and thank you God for jousting with lunch..." at the end of bedtime prayers the other day. It's funny to me that he remembered there was food involved in this trip because he hardly ate a bite. He was so excited about watching the show that he did not pay too much attention to the food. He really enjoyed wearing his armor, and several people commented on it. By coincidence, our knight had a griffin that truly matched the one on Scott's shield, which thrilled Scott. The knight even noticed Scott in the stands and nodded to him before the show.
Legoland FL - Day 1
We thoroughly enjoyed our passes to Legoland FL over the Christmas break. Scott was excited about the carousel that had 2 stories.
He got to drive a race car all by himself. I think it is so cool that Legoland allows the 3-5yr olds to drive and really steer the cars. Scott was WAY into it - see him looking over his shoulder to beat the other cars. He leaned into the curves and hunched over. I am sure he was doing car noises the whole way!
Brian and Scott in a race event - you drive the emergency vehicle by pumping , then you have to spray the water until the bell rings, get back in the vehicle and race to the finish. The parents get to compete in this one. :)
and Meg slept through most of it...

Christmas 2011
These are some pictures from Christmas 2011. Scott was pretty funny - he actually wanted to put away the special Santa key before opening his stocking. 
I love the crossed legs in this picture - just chillin' and opening Santa presents - no rush.
Scott played with his bucket of soldiers for nearly an hour. The "army mans" (plural for army man, by the way) were set in all sorts of formations and they got in and out of the helicopter a lot. Brian offered some suggestions about the mortars and minesweepers, but these were rejected with scowls. Evidently the true function of the minesweeper guy is to clean up with a broom. "Him is sweeping trash, Dad."
Meg did not have a care in the world. Scott opened her presents for her and she took a nap.
Riggs got to bite wrapping paper and snuggle on top of a crinkly trash bag. His version of a perfect Christmas. In the background you can see the empty cookie plate and empty glass that held chocolate milk for Santa. Scott wanted to make sure he had chocolate milk - only the best.
We had a warmish afternoon, so the boys got to use their new skates and Meg and I had a nice time walking around watching them. Scott loves his wrist guards, and he practiced controlled falling on several occasions to try them out.
