Today your Great Aunt Kim and Great Uncle Keith stopped by on their way back north and got to see your pictures from the beginning of the month. Your fan club continues to grow cutie. As your Great Aunt and Uncle were leaving, your aunt Jennie and A got here, they also got to see your pictures from our first trip for the first time as well.
While here, Joey decided A needed to play with him. He kept bringing her his toys, waiting for her to throw them for him. He didn't get she is only 4 months. I am hoping you either learn to throw his toys or he learns you are too small to play with him yet.
Your aunt and I like to bargain shop together. We had a couple of missions today. . .
Mission 1: Find "gingerbread" ornaments for next year's gingerbread party. This mission failed. We found some, but the price wasn't right.
Mission 2: Find "comfy" pants for your Dad to wear at the hotel next trip. If we are going to be sitting around the hotel, might as well be comfortable and that isn't always the case with jeans. Mission accomplished.
Mission 3: Okay, this mission developed as we shopped. While looking at ornaments, I decided I would find a goat ornament. While at the Christmas store, I wondered over to the "animal" section. I found snakes, dinosaurs, horses, skunks, llamas, and 1 goat. That's right, in the animal section there were multiples of all the other animals, but only one goat. Guess who now owns the goat? We do! Well, aunt Jennie was still looking, so I continued into the "Olde World Christmas" ornaments section. Again, llama, skunk, pigs, goats. That's right, plural. Hon, you they had a "Billy Goat" and a "Pigmy Goat." I got both for you.
Tradition: Okay, so this is what I decided today while at the mall. L made you a goat ornament because we bought a goat while in country. So the simple "equation" here is goat ornament = donated goat. So every year at Christmas we will be donating a goat in your honor. We have three ornaments to get us through the next three years worth of goat donations, so we have time to find more goat ornaments. I am thinking this will be a good tradition to have for the family.
Love,
Mom
PS- Goats are hard to photograph. These three goats required 5 takes before getting a photo that didn't reflect off the glitter too much.
