Merry Christmas. This year we headed to Florida to see some family. The main purpose was to see Pops who wasn’t feeling well. In fact he ended up going into the hospital for surgery while we were there. He was fine and got out the day we flew back to Albany. Before visiting Pops and M.A. we went to Universal Studios where you and mom spent most of your time in the Simpson’s area of the part. It was awesome. All of us played lots of carnival games and won many plush toys of the Simpson’s family. You got everyone except Homer. After visiting the grandparents we went on Jacksonville to stay with the Wrotens and see Grammie and Gramps. You had great time playing with the cousins. You went to St. Augustine, went geocaching, and played around the neighborhood. You, Jackson, and Ava performed a dance routine one of the nights.

Merry Christmas 2015. On this Christmas day Nonna and Papa spent the day with us opening presents and eating. This was the year of the Star Wars Legos for you. There was the Imperial Shuttle, Rey’s Speeder, Endor Speeder bikes, and RotJ Final Battle. You basically spent Christmas day and the following day building all of these sets. You continue to inspire me with your drive to be creative. Don’t spot. Always be creative.

What a fun weekend you had. We started with a family dinner at Bellini’s. Nonna and Papa joined us for dinner and the we went home for some ice cream and presents. On Saturday you had some friends over to celebrate. Luke, Liam, Vince, Ryan, James, Eliza, Paige, Willa, and Caroline attended. You painted houses, played Simon says, and your awesome big brother put on a magic show. As for presents, let’s say it was the year of art supplies. Happy birthday and keep drawing.

What a great day. Chaotic, but great. We had your 6th and probably last at the house. There were a number of kids from Mercy and Hamagrael. There was Lucas, Eli, Isabel, Sammy, Vince, Dermot, Evan, Paige, Willa, and probably a few others that I can’t remember but your mom could. The activities included the game of Simon Says, a piñata, free play time, presents, cakes, story time, and dancing. I’m tired just writing about it. Happy birthday Tyler. I love you.

Check out this amazing shirt that you designed and created for Hristmas 2013. This year we spent Christmas Eve at Nonna’s and Papa’s. Santa did find us there and we had a great Christmas morning opening presents and having breakfast. Also as part of our Christmas break we spent one night in Boston at Margot’s house as she was in Sarasota visiting Carol.
