Thanksgiving Weekend And Christmas Is Coming!

We were lucky to have Sawyer's cousins here from California
through the weekend.  We spent Saturday afternoon at the
Grapevine Mills Mall where Sawyer loved riding the Carousel
with his aunt Stephanie.  The weather turned cold only 3 days
before, so it was a bit chilly to go outside.

We decorated the house on Sunday evening.  Sawyer
particularly loves the animated snowmen decorations we have
from Hallmark because he can push a button and make them
go.  He LOVES to push them all at once and start a veritable
orchestra of singing snowmen.

Sawyer's Pie and Papa sent him some of his own luggage for
him to pull seeing as he so loved doing it while he as on
vacation in Utah.  This one is great because it doubles as a
truck he can ride.  He loved having Brent pull him as well.

Sawyer's interest in Brent's phone led Brent to buying Sawyer
his own "phone" - which is really an iPod touch.  Brent put
some Sesame Street videos on them - which as far as Sawyer
is concerned are really only of value as long as Elmo is on the
screen!  But it's turned out that he's enjoyed it and has made it
easier for Brent to get his email done!

But the highlight of the week was the "Carol of Lights" at school
where Sawyer's class sang the "Fa, la, la, la" part of Deck the
Halls.  Sawyer sang with gusto when it came to the kids part.  
The funniest thing, however, was Sawyer led his class out the
door, but they told him to "Go outside and sit down."  He took it
LITERALLY, and walked out the door, ONE STEP, then sat
down, so the rest of his class literally tumbled over him  - one
of the teachers literally had to move him, as he thought he had
done as he was told!
