Christmas Comes Early

Dylan left on Sunday to go spend the Christmas Break with his mom, so we had his Christmas on Saturday afternoon so that he could enjoy his presents before he left.


Dylan was ecstatic about his "Transformers" belt buckle.


He was also happy to be able to play Raving Rabbids with Rylan before he left. The boys spent all afternoon playing that game.


As for Dylan's "big" present, an Ipod Touch, I'm not sure who was more excited, Boone (Dylan's adopted brother), Rylan, or Dylan Himself.


It was SOOO much fun to watch the boys spend the afternoon playing, and laughing together as they played the video game on the Wii or as they played with the Apps that Dylan downloaded to his Ipod.



Dylan got there safely, avoiding the weather mess in the North East. The house just seems a bit on the empty side now that he's away. Poor Rylan really is missing being around his big brother.



On the "Cute" side, Kylee drew a Nativity Scene while in Sacrament Meeting on Sunday and it's so darn cute I just HAD to post if for the world to see.
