For the love of Santa

 I went to see Santa Clause this weekend! I had to tell him what was on my Christmas list in case he forgot what I put in my letter to Santa. He must be really smart that Santa to remember everything that all the children ask for. How can he possibly remember every wish and every address?

I made a Rudolf hat at the Friendship Tree this week. I think it is kinda cute but the dogs keep trying to eat it!

Hard work

No one ever told me how much work it would be to learn how to spell my name. Let me tell you that it is exhausting! I am in the process of learning how to spell and trace my name. I will keep you all posted how it is going.

Twas the night before Christmas when all through the house not a creature was stirring not even a mouse....

When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter. Dolce sprung from his bed to see what was the matter.

Yup this is what all the commotion was about. Daddy bought me a puppy! We he actually bought it for mommy. But you know how it is, what is your is mine. I obviously had to find her a cute name and somehow Cherif Callie was on my mind. I got creative and decided to name her Callie.

I love to hug her and cuddle with her. She even chases me around the house! The best part is that Dolce loves her too!

Note to self: Don't try to talk when Callie is in your face, Unless you want a huge kiss!

Is it too early to get ready for Christmas?

Never! I am one of those firm believers that Christmas should start right after Halloween. Daddy is not so sure about this and thinks that I am a little crazy about the holiday season. Then again I have inherited all of daddy's genetics so I have to have something from mommy... Guess it is the love for Christmas. From the picture I guess that you can imagine we bought a Christmas tree this week. Not to put in the house but to decorate outside! 

Aunty Caroline helped me make my list for Santa. I am having a hard time choosing a few things out of the book so I went ahead a put a big red circle on almost everything in the book. Hey, at least the big man has some selections to choose my present from!

As a four year old there is a lot of exciting things that happen. Like the bus driving down our street, playing in the mud, building a new Lego but yesterday something really exciting happened. Daddy bought me and mommy a new puppy! We named her Callie like Sheriff Callie or Sally depending how I am feeling. This is her.  

This weekend was full of surprises...mommy and papa were home for a three day weekend, we finished all of our renovations, it snowed Oh and did I mention it SNOWED! I was excited to wake up and see all that white stuff. It is too bad that there was not enough to make a snowman.  

Did I mention that I got to go horse back ridding this weekend?  I got to go for a ride with my mom. Daddy went on a ride of his own. I do not think that he thought that the horsey would run so fast. He looked a little surprised.

 Me and mommy took a few selfies while we were on the trail. Most of them did not turn out so well since we were making funny faces!

 Gosh was I tired when I got home. I was cold and ready for a nap. Well, not really a nap since I am a big boy now and never take a nap. I was kinda happy to have my loyal Cooper to cuddle me and warm me up!

I almost forgot to mention that I started my Christmas list for Santa. Boy, is that ever a hard job!~ How can I possibly limit my list to a reasonable amount of toys? I mean have you seen how many amazing toys are in the flyers these days. Every weeks I keep finding cooler ones! I guess that it will have to be a work in progress.

Renovation's

A word that I love! Mommy and Daddy not so much... 

yet our house is always undergoing some sort of transformation.

Ready Papa to help you, or slow you down. Let the work begin!

Get Away Weekend

Every once and again it is nice to get away for the weekend. not that I loke to leave my toys and tractors behind but it is nice to have a sleep over some place new. Most of the time I manage to sleep in the adult bed while Papa fights with the size of a single bed. haha

There was a lot of fun activities that we did while we were at the cottage. Thanks Jen and Phil for the invite!

Although the weather was cold it was nice enough to go for a long walk in the woods and a quick paddle boat ride to see the beaver damn.

The walk home was a little bit challenging
