Here is our Christmas story. We began the cold month of December giving back to nature. Grandma Delanie, Lawrence, Jason, Tyler and Heather took time out to feed the ducks at the Provo River. Tyler loves to throw out whole slices of bread at a time while we try to get him to break it into smaller pieces. We had so much fun and went through about 4 loafs of bread atleast.
Tyler and Heather went ice skating and Tyler loved talking to Santa.
A few days before Christmas is snowed and snowed here in Provo. Tyler woke up that morning and saw the snow and wanted to go out and play and shovel with his own snow shovel. I told Tyler he had to eat breakfast and then we'd get our snow gear on and go out side. Tyler loved helping Heather shovel the snow off the sidewalks and drive way. Ofcourse snow angels were on Tyler's agenda.
Jason came sledding with us at Rock Canyon Park. Tyler loved zooming down the hill. We had races and watched to see who could slide the farthest. Tyler didn't want to leave even though it was way past sunset and the night was getting very cold.
Tyler's Joy School group had a Christmas party. They put on their Christ's Birth play and sang songs for all of their families. Tyler was the Inn Keeper and pronounced "No Room" after 'Joseph' would knock on the Inn's door. Then Tyler would be a wise man and would give a gift to the baby Jesus. Tyler loves Joy school and all his friends there.
The next 3 pictures are of our gift exchange with Heather's family. Tyler was so excited he had to help everyone open their presents.
Tyler loved visiting our family in California. We did our Christmas Eve presents which are always pajamas. And we set out cookies and milk for Santa. On Christmas morning the first thing that Tyler check on was to see if Santa had eaten the cookies and milk. He was so excited that Santa had eaten the cookies and milk that he didn't even acknowledge the presents stacked in front of the cookie plate. :)
While in California we went to the Zoo and saw the "Zoo Lights". We also went on some rides. Tyler rode a small rolercoaster and after he got off I asked him if it was fun. He said "No, it was scary". I asked, "was is a fun scary or a too scary?". Tyler replied with, "it was a too scary, I don't want to go again." He did have fun on the train and carousel.
We also went to the roller skating rink. Tyler's cousin Samantha had a great time skating and playing air hockey with Tyler. And there were many hot tub opportunities at Papa Mike's. All the cousin's loved playing in the hot tub.
Christmas was great this year and it was so much fun watching Tyler through it all.
The best part was being able to spend so much time with all of our families.
We love you all and wish you the best in the year to come.
Love, Travis, Heather, and Tyler Blevins

You have an adorable family. I enjoy the pictures and the video of Travis and Tyler wrestling. It reminds me of the good ol' days in our apartment in Alpharetta, when Elder Blevins would pound me into the ground. I have hoped to re-establish contact with him for some time, but could never find him until now. My name is Elder Rutherford, and I am his greenie. I really appreciated having him as a trainer-he was the best! Hmmm...I wonder if rubbing shoulders with an identical twin has had an effect on my own offspring. Please check out my wife's blog and see my family. And I hope we can get in further contact.
