CELEBRATION WEEKEND


Saturday morning we went over to Wes' mom house to visit with his sister from Oklahoma that comes in to visit. When she comes bringing all of her kids, her stay is very short because it makes it hard. It was fun to see them and see how the kids have grown. Shann has 3 biological children and 3 adopted children. She has a huge heart and these kids are amazing. Calli & Colson loved playing with their cousins.


Then we left there and went to celebrate Christmas with my aunt, uncle and cousins. Always a treat!

The kids decorated cupcakes....and wore some of the chocolate.

This is Harris' little girl, Bailey. She's 1 week older than Colson.

They also played a little ladder golf (cheating all the way)

This was one of the white elephant gifts. My aunts side are all longhorns and of course we're Aggies (except Colson who switches back and forth)
Another white elephant gift that of course Colson snatched up. What kid doesn't need a rubber chicken that lays an egg?

My aunt Carol who takes all of our amazing pictures. Does she look 60? NO WAY!!!
And then the cutest kid ever....Hudson was chilling at the party :)


On Sunday, Calli had two friends over and Colson had one friend to fulfill our gingerbread house tradition. In Colson style, he was finished when he did one half of the roof. His friend was really into it though so he came back after I started decorating his and he saw that Preston was doing some cool stuff.




I can't believe Christmas is JUST AROUND THE CORNER! Hurry Santa!

Leah, you are very welcome. I hesitated at first because I don't like to disappoint and I can't promise how often I get around to posting...usually at least once a week and then sometimes daily. You'll have to be surprised if you follow it :) I hope you guys have a wonderful Christmas! I'll probably see you tonight! Steph
