[Tammy, Paul and Colyn]

Hi,
I'll start with Colyn because he got lots.  I hope I remember it all!  lol 
He was old enough to know all about Christmas, and it was lots of fun 
talking and dooing all the Santa things, and getting him all excited about 
it.  He got a Smart Cycle, and a new station for his Thomas set, as well as 
12 new engines for it.  He also got some puzzles, a drum with all the other 
band instruments in it, and some play dough.  Oh, and he got a remote 
control Thomas engine, a slip and slide and a water slide for the back yard. 
He got a lot of little toys too, but I'm just telling you the big stuff.
I got a new drill and an ipod Nano from Paul, and I got him a couple of new 
downloadable things for his computer that he's been asking for.  We also 
went away on what would have been our honeymoon if it wasn't for some 
paperwork issues before Christmas.  We spent alot, and had more fun then 
anybody should be allowed to have.  smile  The best part about it was that I 
knew absolutely nothing about any of it until the day we left.  He's planned 
the whole thing, even got help from my dad without me knowing a thing.
Colyn went back to school today so I took the chance to take the tree down 
because he wouldn't let me before.  He told me that I wasn't allowed to take 
the tree down because Santa wouldn't be able to put presents under it for 
him.

Tammy
