Christmas 2006 - Yucaipa, CA

For this year's Christmas, mom and dad took me to see Grandpa and Grandma Horspool and the rest of my aunts/uncles and cousins in Southern California. Dad saved up all his vacation time and blew it all in one family vacation!! What a guy! No wonder he, I mean people, call him the man. Some of the highlights from my trip was to fly on an airplane for the very first time! I didn't even cry during take off or landing. Just sat there as sweet as can be, because that's how I roll!! Also, despite the fact there was no snow when we arrived, we still tried to do some Christmasy things. We went to the LDS Temple in Los Angeles where they had the whole property lit up. I loved the lights! Daddy thought it was C-R-A-Z-Y that people in California hung lights on palm trees though. Being from Canada, he's used to coniferous trees. It was still cool to see the lights though. I guess it's good that I get an early exposure to these types of things so I'm not as confused as my old man is when I grow up. We also visited Hollywood Boulevard and that was pretty fun as well. On Christmas eve Santa came to visit!! He brought all the little children presents, but didn't bring any of the mommies and daddies gifts. I guess they weren't very good this year, so hopefully they'll learn from this experience. Santa brought me a tan jacket, and if I may, I make that jacket look pretty stinkin' good. When Christmas morning came, dad couldn't get over the fact that it was 85 degrees farenheit at 9am. He didn't know what to do with himself without a white Christmas!! We all helped him pull through his dilemma. I didn't quite get as excited as the other kids about Christmas presents, I pretty much took a nap and woke up after everyone had opened them up. However, I did do something new during our trip. Grandma found out that I'm very ticklish on my thighs. I think she enjoyed tickling me as much as I enjoyed being tickled. Check it out...



Well, in a nutshell that was my 1st Christmas experience. For New Year's I did about the same stuff I did for Christmas. Slept. So did Grandpa. Next Christmas we'll see what happens though. Like always, feel free to check out all the pictures of my 1st Christmas in the Photo Albums link!!!
