Christmas--long distance from Iraq

Thanks to modern technology, Dusty got to watch Zoey opening her presents on Christmas morning, although it was not the best view for him, at least he could participate in some way.

When Zoey opened her ballerina doll, Dusty said "Whoo Hoo", then every present after that, Zoey would say "Whoo Hoo". It was pretty cute.

All the girls and I made dinosaurs for all the kids, it was fun for me to see the girls wanting to recreate something they had as a kid, they turned out cute.
Mandy made Zoey a "Daddy blanket, made from one of Dusty's old uniforms and some cute stars and stripes we bought. It has pictures of her and Daddy on it.


It was a fun morning--fun to have a little kid around again.
