Christmas 2007

All tired out after opening gifts!

Love my new socks.

Princesses and me ...

Our tree

Opening my stocking

Sisters sledding

My big sisters and I went sledding this afternoon near Meacham in the Blue Mountains. It was a lot of fun for them, even though it was very cold. I stayed in the car and played with my Dad.

This is Paula taking a spill ...

and this is Sophia completing a full run ...

Round-n-round we go ...

With my favorite person in the whole world!

Snowy day in early December

My sisters made this cute little snowman!

Getting Christmas tree

I went to get a Christmas tree today.  It was a beautiful sunny day just after a nice snowfall near Jubilee Lake.  We bought a license to cut the tree for $5 and then headed up to the woods where we found a nice tree near enough to the road for me to come along and help cut it.  On the way home my sisters and I played in the snow at a look out point.

Santa photos

Even though we were disappointed that these were not the "real" Santas, we visited a couple of them last weekend to put in our Christmas wishes. Fortunately Oliver didn't pull their beard too hard...

More Christmas photos

Christmas is coming

This series is of potential photos for our yearly Christmas card. We were lucky to get a lot of snow.

A little movie of Oliver!

Lucky charm

Coritiba Football Club, my mom's and her family's favorite soccer team, has taken a beating in recent years. Things have gotten so bad for our dear Coxa that they no longer play in the first division. Nonetheless, change may be in the air: this week every time I wore a Coxa outfit on a game day, the team won.

Happy playing

Boy turtle

My first Halloween

We had fun on Halloween. I was a turtle, Sophia was a princess (wearing mom's clothes) and later on a glow in the dark preteen, and Paula was Jasmine. We had fun walking on Main Street where we could see some of our friends and their costumes.

My sisters on Halloween night

This is what my sisters looked like on Halloween night. They were able to keep 15 pieces of candy from their huge loot.

My mom and I

This is my mom. She rarely appears in my blog since she takes the photos.

Paula is my main buddy

I'm beginning to suspect my sister Paula thinks I'm her life-size baby doll. She really takes good care of me.

Soccer games

This is how I watched my sisters play soccer this Fall.

Happy on Sunday

I am a happy boy on a chilly Sunday afternoon. I like to grab things and move my body quite a bit.
