Santa's Christmas Surprise 2009

I know this is a little late in posting... But I've just got to put this in here! We had a Ward Christmas Party last December & Santa came to visit. It happened to be the night of my dads birthday, so it seemed like an even more special day. Jaxon knew exactly what he wanted...

He closed his eyes and made a wish...

And he asked Santa for... A Puppy. He told John and I all December long that all he wanted for Christmas was 1-His family back (John and I were work on our marriage, and were bringing our family back together), and 2-A Puppy. Last year we had two pure bread Golden Retrievers. Unfortunately due to several circumstances (surgery, separation, finances, and soforth) we had to give them away, and they found a new home. "Santa" called me and told me that our dogs had a puppy and wanted to know if we were ready for one.

When we got home from the Christmas Party there was something waiting for Jaxon under the Christmas tree. I love how big his eyes are in this picture!

He opened the box...with dad's help of course.

And was so surprised that Santa had brought him an early Christmas present.

This little guy's name is BUDDY.

I felt like a million dollars that night. Jaxons punch stained smile was from ear to ear for days!

Notice the wii remotes are off to the side, and Jaxon has a new toy to play with!

Jaxon & Buddy.

Jaxon's best Christmas surprise ever! We had a wonderful Christmas that we spent together as a family. I am happy to say that we were officially a family again, and Jaxon had another best friend. It was truly wonderful, and we were very blessed!
