Dylan was very excited to see Grandpa and I think even more excited to see the puppies! Halen and Roxie love to have him around and he loves watching them run and play.
We arrived and got a new tour of the new abode. A nice and serene development tucked way back in the trees on a dead end culdesac. Looks like you are traveling down a small road to know where when suddenly the valleys open and there are homes.
Dylan made his seat right away in front of the fire place. Soon his gifts were stacked up and he had his own present-a-thon, opening presents from Grandpa and Keeley. 
His first gift being his own personal digital camcorder. Hilarious! All day long he had that thing on, pointing at everyone saying, 'say cheese'. Later in the evening we briefly peeked to see what all he had recorded during the day...it was a true amateur video! Too funny, from about waist high and point up he caught some memorable moments from the day.
And we tried a few attempts at getting a pic of Chase and his mini-me. We finally got one! It is sure amazing how much Dylan looks like Chase, and even more amazing how much he acts like Chase when he was that age. These two sure have a lot of fun together! Chase had been at our house for a few nights during the week. It is always very nice having him around. We all surly will miss him. 
And the adults opened their gifts too!
And Danielle had fun presents too!
Dylan got his little mitts in anywhere he could, helping just about everyone open up their gifts!
Dylan was such a good boy. He sat and played with his new toys all day long. He didn't make a peep, every once in awhile he would come running going from person to person but he was very good and had fun.
Danielle got in some great snuggle time with Uncle Chase. She sat and watched football with the guys all afternoon long while the girls ventured out for some furniture shopping.

Grandpa got in some snuggles too!
We had a nice visit this weekend with my Dad. As much as I would love to have him closer to us, his house is easy to get to and not that bad of a drive. My Aunt Ellie and Uncle Bill also came down and spent Saturday with us. It was very nice having the family all together. We had a two big feasts of my Dads yummy cooked food, we relaxed and got all caught up. The kids got in some great play time and we really couldn't ask for much more. It was sad to leave Chase as he will stay with my Dad for the week and venture back to Pittsburgh a week from today. We countdown the time until we get to see him again. Hard to believe he will be 21 in just a few short weeks....crazy! Where does time go!
The 2010 Holiday Season has officially ended. We are now full swing in to the New Year!~
