Christmas in Florida

I found Santa just in time… and at the beach of all places!

“I want a Titanic, a pirate ship, and a garbage truck with arms like this” (holding his arms up like a fork lift).  Myron was very good this year, Santa brought him 2 garbage trucks!

Spending Christmas Eve at the beach was awesome!  My favorite parts were pushing around my Pirate ship…

and being buried in the sand!  Although the water was cold!

We took in some holiday lights in Largo and then we got to open one present early – mine was a bobcat!  So cool!

The next morning I was so excited I woke everyone at 7am Florida time (folks that is 4am California time) – I was excited!

I opened so many presents… my favorites were garbage bins and plastic rocks (yes, plastic rocks, go figure).

Then it was time to do some driving in Gracie’s new car!  It was great, she love to ride, and I love to drive.  We went for a drive everyday!

We also drove a big bicycle, we were great ‘drivers’… “go this way’'… “go that way”

Then Nana and I built an airport… I called it the Nana Airport then…  but now it is Austria.

The next day we took a kayaking trip… Gracie and I were excited when we started… and tired when it ended. 2011-12-22 Christmas 2011 in FL 215

I started in Dada’s kayak…

and ended in Mama’s.  The water was calm and the weather perfect.

Our last day at the beach included a big hole (he loved that hole)…
