1) Mustache ala Tyler.
2) Each year Tyler does something creative with his gift wrap. This year, everything was wrapped as a bomb.
3) Tyler got an electric fly swatter from Santa.
If you ever get one, don't let the fact that it is powered by 2 little batteries make you think it is safe to touch. All the men in the Mckinlay house hold had to touch it.
{after seeing how high Ty jumped off the floor after touching it}
I think it was a Christmas rite of passage or something.
Silly boys.

ReplyDeleteGoodness that Mckinlay is cute. I just want to fly to Boston and give her a hug! And, you know, play with you for a week. :)
ReplyDeleteLove you!
Fun memories...just need more! Uh,oh...never had my "airport cry"...feel the tears starting to well-up...bye!
ReplyDeletelooks so fun! hey, what is written on that santa plate?
ReplyDeleteOk, I love your glasses. But, the family pictures with you and Ty (in the last post) is the way I know you best! That's the Megs I remember. I was just suprised how different I felt when I saw you without the glasses. Weird huh?
ReplyDeletemer -- my brother, sister and i made that plate years ago. it's a letter to santa. it says something along the lines of us being really good that year. we've used that plate ever since i can remember for santa's cookies. it was fun to have mckinlay use it too!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, it was fun to have you guys here. It always seems to go so fast. Too fast. Hope you guys had a good trip home. We love you!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you guys had a very Merry Christmas! I bet it was so much fun with Mckinlay! The pics are too cute!
ReplyDeleteIt all looks so happy and Christmasy! Sigh. We put away all of our Christmas stuff over the weekend and I feel sort of lost.
ReplyDelete1. I want to wrap our presents up like bombs one of these years. That is awsome.
ReplyDelete2. I think I may be making a trip to Color me Mine to make a cookies plate for Santa. That is such a cute idea!
I love the pic of Darius and Mckinlay, you'll have to send that one to me! We had a lot of fun with you guys I'm glad we got a chance to hang out! Love ya
ReplyDeleteLoved being with you all. Thanks for helping make Christmas so special. I loved watching Mckinlay interact with the cousins. She's a dolly.
ReplyDeleteLove, Mom
My girls love the pictures of your daughter. Especially the piss with maddox. "Ooh that's disgusting" to quote Hallie. "On the lips?"
ReplyDeleteWe love it !!
