Opening more Presents

While we were at Papa and Nana's Will, of course, got to open some presents. He is so great about everything. Once he opens something he wants to get it out and play with it. He makes me very proud.
Papa is showing him his new camera. It is amazing, it takes photos and videos. We have lots of pictures of people's bottoms, guess we know what he sees now.
I can't tell what this is but they are into it.
Nana found a Handy Manny color set with mini markers and color pages.
It is perfect for church.
He loves the kalidascope, but he can't quite figure out where all the
pretty colors are coming from.
He loves Legos and the Lego Fire Chief was a huge hit.

Elefun

Mark and I got Will, Elefun for Christmas and it has been a HUGE hit. The object of the game is to catch as many butterflies in your net as they fly out of the elephant's trunk. Sounds easy enough, but let me tell you, these butterflies have a mind of their own. The game takes about 45 seconds to play and believe me, Will is ready to play again after that. All in all it is a great game and Will would highly recommend it.
Will's method is to put your net up, stand in one place and hope you catch some.
There they go!
Time to reload for another round. Thanks for playing everyone.
Sadly enough, many end up on the floor.

Halloween Party

Will was invited to his first Halloween Party this year. Addison, Emerson and Caden, with some help from their mommies, through a great party. We had chili, made tons of crafts and even got to play with balloons. Will loved decorating his pumpkins with the felt sticker face. I packed them away so we can get them out every year. Thanks everyone for a great party.
Working on his pumpkin's face and now showing it off.
We also got to make a milk jug pumpkin with paint and glue.
Anything with glue is exciting for him.
Will is giving a "fist pump" to Pops. Pops was his Sunday School teacher last year.
Will adores him.

Sledding

After the snow melted a little and the roads were clear, we ventured out to Papa and Nana's house. Papa had this great snow hill at his house that was perfect for sledding. They had a sled that was perfect for Will. The front came up a little and it had handles. Will took right to it. He stayed out there until we made him come in. I keep meaning to go to Academy to find a sled like this one for the next snow storm.

Happy Halloween

I hope this blog is the first of many more but no promises. So as you can all see we did celebrate Halloween. The cousins and Nana and Papa met at our house as we went Trick-or-Treating around the neighborhood. Everyone really enjoyed it. Will was "done" after about 4 houses. He and I ended up going home early and answering our door. He enjoyed that much more.
Again, I hope this is the start of much more blogging.
Yes this is the picture I got!
Major the Dinosaur, Jaxon and Will the Cowboys, Camden the Doctor and Nana the Nice Witch. They were all a little "star struck" with the cameras. Right before we walked out the door, Will decided he wanted me to dress up. Nana and I went running and pulled together a Cowgirl costume for me. Hopefuly next year we can all dress up as a family, Will would really enjoy that.
