Merry Christmas to you all and my apologies for letting too much time (almost two months) slip by before updating our page. I can't believe that 2009 is just days away and that our "little" Kyle will be turning 2 in just four short months!!! Christmas morning was so much fun with him today, as you will see in the pictures! Enjoy them all and have a wonderful holiday weekend with family and friends!
