Pre-Christmas Fun

 My first task was to sort through the small mountain of deliveries and make sure we had all our Christmas shopping finished.

Next stop was Target for a few necessities and some wrapping paper.

But the best wrapping paper had already been delivered!  The boys loved it.

We spent our first several days with Grammy and Grumpy enjoying all the wonderful food that Texas offers and laughing over games. Our jet lag wasn't too bad but we all still had our moments...

We discovered Telestrations and had so many laughs, like this hammerhead shark!


We caught up with old friends, who were moving back to Texas!

We enjoyed some amazing winter sunsets...

And we opened some Christmas gifts a little early so we could all enjoy them together.

Legos never get old!

We made an all-important stop at Waffle House for a big breakfast, although only one waffle was actually ordered.

I had a wonderful time at the grocery store shopping for dry goods to bring back!

On Christmas Eve, we loved going to our church in Houston to enjoy the traditional candlelight service.


In the midst of our busy trip, it was wonderful to have some peaceful time and really soak in the real reason for Christmas. Singing Silent Night by candlelight makes my entire Christmas.
