We had the most wonderful time spending Christmas with our family. The girls had a blast, even though there was NO SNOW! For more pictures click below:

Lights!

We enjoyed a few Festival of Lights this year, but a definite highlight was seeing Santa. They actually talked to him and didn't cry! They even gave him a 'high five.' A few moments after we walked away Jocelyn said..."See Dad, I told you I was going to talk to Santa," It was a good day. ;)

Christmas card: Take 3

Happy Thanksgiving

We have so much to be thankful for: especially pregnant friends who will play 'dress up' with two little girls after Thanksgiving dinner. Marc and Laurie--you really are the best. :)

Aunt Tammy

Aunt Tammy came for a visit and we had so much fun! She was able to go with the girls on their field trip to the Food Pantry and attending the Thanksgiving Feast. We had fun at the Nutcracker Market...who knew you could be that tired from shopping?! We also enjoyed Kemah and the beach. Thanks for visiting!

Happy Halloween

The girls were super excited for Halloween this year and we celebrated nearly all month long. Julia was Belle and Jocelyn was Tinkerbell. The had fun trick or treating with their class at NASA. Their favorite part of trick or treating at home was handing out the treats. They would literally jump up and down after they gave away candy. :)

The Great Smoky Mountains

Fun with Granny

Grandma Diana came to Texas and we left for The Smoky Mountains! The girls had so much fun. They played at the park, watched hot air balloons, painted pumpkins, went to Fall Festivals...there was never a dull moment. Thank you Granny...we love you!

Yogi Bear

We enjoyed the long weekend (and celebrating my birthday) at the Jellystone Yogi Bear campground. We had a great time! Waterslides, painting pumpkins, costume contest, trick or treating, feeding the animals, tye dying t-shirts, mini golf and finally meeting Yogi. It rained ALL DAY Sunday (it hasn't rained that much in a YEAR), so we were so thankkful we had a cabin. The girls loved the loft which was just their size. We will definitely be making this an annual trip!
