Every time we travel to Dallas, it is imperative that we visit with our dear friends, Kent and Grace. Their little boy (Ellis) was born just a few days after Noah, so we love to get the boys together to play. And, boy did they play... chasing each other up and down the hallway, sharing and "not" sharing toys, and of course an occasional tackle. Evidently, we already have them in football training :) Thank you, Grace and Kent, for opening your home to us! We had such a wonderful visit with you!!
Here are some photos of the boys :) 
We headed up to Dallas for Christmas morning this year... Noah enjoyed playing with the ornaments on the tree... taking rides around the house in grandma's old wagon... playing chase with Aunt Debbie's dog, Lucy... and playing with all of the toys that have been accumulated at grandma and grandpa's house over the years through 4 grandchildren. In fact, Noah was so enamored with the "new" toys at grandma's house that he quickly lost interest in opening presents that took more energy and effort to discover. I'm sure that next year will be quite different...
