Christmas Morning

 
A Merry Christmas it was. Briggs was a little overwhelmed I think. At first he was interested in the toy that was unwrapped, perhaps a little interested in the paper and lots of interest in mommy, daddy, fancy, ya-ya and big daddy. He was unusually clingly Christmas morning. Oh Well! Despite the confusion we all still had fun.

Dear Santa Claus,

Well the year has flown by fast. I'm already 9 months old and guess what? I'm about to walk. I can even hold my own bottle now. I scoot alongside tables and love to hug mommy and daddy's knees. My family has been so very busy this year and we are excited that the holiday season is here. First of all my parents built their very own house. Actually it's not a traditional house, it's called a barndominium. It's half house/half barn. We are finally getting settled in and we love it. My parents brought me into the world on March 10th and they say they just can't imagine life without me. We have soo much fun together. Lots of love and laughter in the Hoffman Herd.

Right now I'm pretty satisfied with a cardboard box, or even more crazy... My favorite bath toys are my shampoo bottles and my favorite other toys are kitchen utensils and pots and pans. I love helping mommy do the dishes, and I love to help daddy cook.

We don't have a fireplace in our barndominium so when you and the crew stop by just land in the pasture. Rain, one of our many dogs, will be waiting for you. We've left a big trough of water for your reindeer and their will be a cup of hot chocolate topped with whipped cream and pan de polvo waiting for you. Pan de polvo is little bite size melt in your mouth cookies-so enjoy them.

Safe travels around the world.

Love,

Briggs Paulus Hoffman
