Doug & Kyle & I traveled to AZ for Christmas & New Year's this year. Here are Matt, Papa Wick, & Nanny Wick riding a train with Kyle.

Picture time in front of the Christmas tree became laugh at Kyle and try to identify which camera was taking the pictures time.

Two out of the three people in this photo look like they are up to something.

"Papa? Is goofy genetic?"

The whole crew.

Doug & Matt got gift certificates to the Bondurant Driving School for Christmas. Kyle: "Hey you guys, let's look tough."

Not to be outdone by any other grandmas, Nana Wick decided to let Kyle "help" make gingerbread cookies.

Grandma: "Now you see Kyle, you just roll the dough like this. Umm. OK, that's one way to do it."

Kyle, in charge of spatula clean up duty.

Kyle: "Uncle Matt, these carousels are scary. And now you want me to look at a camera? I don't think so."

Kyle's dream comes true - he becomes a penguin, even if it was only for a few moments until an older girl shoved him out of the way.

"Umm, Dad? Can I see that camera?"

"Sheesh, Papa. More carousels? What's with you guys and the revolving wheels of death?"

Riding on a hummingbird is serious business.

The weirdest picture of Doug ever.

Kyle: "Camel rides for $10? That seems expensive, but if I ask Papa, he'll surely fork out the dough for one. Who's the best person to go with me? Oh, I know! The 17 week pregnant lady whose balance is off. This should be fun!"

Kyle and Grandpa at the Phoenix Zoo Lights.

Nana and Kyle at a local park - Kyle is wearing an old DuPont hat that we've all been subject to wear growing up.

"Weee! I knew I loved turtles, but not this much! Weee"

Kyle's current favorite animal is the zebra, so imagine his delight when he got to ride one at the park.

Kyle's favorite toy from Santa? Uncle Matt.

Kyle: "Uncle Matt, LAY DOWN!" Kyle was very bossy with Uncle Matt... and Uncle Matt was happy to let him be bossy.

Kyle and Mom out back of Grandma & Grandpa's house.

Kyle's jobs outside were to throw rocks in the fountains and ponds (much to Grandpa's begruding chagrin) and to identify when a plane or hot air balloon flew overhead.

Grandma: "Now Kyle, we don't want you to get scurvy. Your mom told me to try this out."

"YAY! It's Christmas! Santa has arrived."

"Elmo slippers? Awesome."

"An old toy from my mom and Uncle Matt's days? Sweet."

"A fireman's outfit? Oh yeah."

"A train set? This is the coolest!!"
