Over 1 Foot of snow in TX=CRAZY Fun!!

We had a blast with the crazy snow that came this month and here are my favorite pictures from the big blast we got! The last day the boys got to sled down the neighbors driveway and had the best time ever!

Carson turns 7

Carson turned 7 on January 8th! Where did the years go? I love this kid. He makes me smile every time I look at him. He is funny, a great big brother, a kind hearted friend, a helper, loves all sports, very well-mannered and respectful, life of the party, cute, and other adults love to be around him too! The last is a very big deal to us because we love that others like being around our kids as much as we do. I think that mostly sums up my oldest. He has the best of his dad and I and we are very proud to call him our son! We had a family party with just the 4 of us on his birthday and then Daniel and I took him and 2 buddies to Medieval Times on the Saturday after his birthday. He is growing up way too fast!

Just Because

I love this picture! If you know me then you know I just love this woman! I think this is my favorite picture of Meme and I! What an incredible woman and I am blessed to call her my grandmother!

December Fun

Christmas Eve service at Cross Timbers

They just woke up and ready to see what Santa brought!

They loved their new plasma cars!

This was our first snow! The boys had fun making a snowman and playing in it for the day.

We went to Six Flags Holiday in the Park. It was a fun day!

Catch up-Dec to current

Our neighborhood had a fun Chirstmas party and Santa came. As you can see Cameron really never took his eyes off Santa! He loved him and talked to him for a long time. He was mesmerized and couldn't believe he was there. Everyone standing with us thought it was so cute and were laughing because he sat so still and told him what he wanted for Christmas!

Meme-Thanksgiving 2009

Here is my grandmother and all her great-grandkids together. She loved having them all this Thanksgiving. If you know me very well you have heard me talk about my Meme. She has always been such an inspiration to me and I have always had such love for her. She has loved a lot and lost a lot but especially had it rough the last few years. I grew up wanting to be like her in a lot of ways. She was a Godly dedicated wife, a content stay at home mother, a wonderful grandmother and a very happy great-grandmother.

She has always loved me deeply and unconditionally. She was one of the best teachers in that and I feel today she is a big part in how I love others. We have always had this special bond and she is one of the favorite pieces of my heart. I love you Meme!

Maybe a Christmas card?

Well we had a great Thanksgiving and much to be thankful for this year once again. We have added 2 more grandkids to my parents Christmas card. Here are a few they have to choose from! (Actually mine don't make the cut-there were others that were way better) But here is a few I took that I thought were more funny than usual. In the first one the big kids are saying "are we done yet?" and the parents are saying "no fake smiles please". And in the second, my personal favorite, is my youngest with his finger in his nose(his new obsession)! Don't think either of these made the cut but they were too funny not to share!
