December Letter

 Dear Family & Friends, 

I went to a cool polar express themed train for a festive train ride. We had hot chocolate, went to the north pole, and got a present from Santa. It was pretty fun.

We built a 2-D "Gingerbread House." Lets just say it was a good journey and it was pretty tasty to eat after. It almost worked. All you have to do is forget about my hand behind it holding it up. It sure does look like Sam had a great time. I do have to say, at least my tree was pretty good looking,

Shoveling... Not much to write about. It isn't really anything special. I had to put on a smile for the photos, but when your outside shoveling 3 times a day it isn't that cheerful. We did get a massive storm that a gave us a nice 20 inches of snow. We were outside shoveling for a quite a while that day.

    

We went to this cool village with lots of fun things to do and see. We had some treats, fought each other in a duel, and saw lots of cool old timey houses. It was pretty cool but they had heaters positioned around the village. It was a really big village filled with lots of cool things. I had a lot of fun. I guess they do lots of other events around the year which I would love to go to.

We had our annual Christmas party with my cousins. We did some minute to win it games, ate Italian food, (very delicious), and watched a movie. I had a lot of fun with my cousins, though not many are my age.

I tried skiing for the first time. Didn't really enjoy it that much. It was pretty fun when I got going. It just wasn't that fun when I crashed. I'm not really a snow person.

Christmas was pretty fun. I got some nice presents. But of course Christmas isn't all about presents. But for the sake of your entertainment and me finishing this letter quick, I'll just talk about Santa's slice of Christmas. I got a cool scooter. The best things I got was a nice shirt from Eric, and a game called Bohnanza.

Well happy new year! I hope you all have the best year. Love, Kyle Patrick Barnhisel
