It's dark, so this is essentially an audio track.

Presents

Zack loved getting presents, and actually seemed to start to get the concept of saying "Thank you." He liked all his gifts, and especially liked this present from his Great Aunt Nancy, with little doors to open and magnets behind each door. (Sorry for the poor quality of these shots.)

All in Christmas sweaters! But we didn't get it together to do a photo shoot this year.

With Grandpa Joe

In his Christmas sweater, eating zucchini bread. He wanted to sing "We wish you a Merry Christmas" all the way on the car ride to Great Grandma Teddy's. He said, "Mom-mom sing Tissmas, yeah." We tried others, including "Silent Night" and "We Three Kings," but he liked the simple words and repeated mention of Christmas, so we did "We wish you a Merry Christmas" about 25 times, with verses about figgy pudding and not going until we got some, too.
