Jolly Ol' St. Nick

Santa stopped off at the Lindeman house, had a little snack and left a few too many toys by the fireplace.

Apparently, the letters sent by way of our friendly elf Nick made it to Santa because he filled Kase and Keller's bags with things they asked for and even threw in a few surprises.

The boys were good in 2011 but goodness, I didn't realize they were that good...or maybe I did.



Kase was so excited to finally have his very own digital camera. He spent the rest of the morning taking pictures and learning how to upload them to his laptop. Could he be anymore like his mother. My sweet, sweet firstborn child...I think he is pretty much the neatest thing on the planet!

Keller was thrilled to finally have his very own bucket of balls, a strike zone net and a bike without training wheels.

I'm sure I don't even need to tell you where or how he spent the rest of his day. Just know, Spring Training has already started in the Lindeman backyard and my garage now looks like an indoor baseball training facility. At least, he and Tony were kind enough to leave a tiny area for my car. Between the basketball goal outside and the new baseball equipment, we are in full-on boy mode at our house...and I love it!

Christmas is over, decorations are put away and we are now preparing for Kase's 9th birthday. Another year in the blog book and what a wonderful year it's been for the Lindeman family. Goodbye 2011, hello 2012...please be good to us!
