Why I love Christmas break...

Baths taken.
Pajamas on.
Movie playing.
Eating popcorn.
Life is good!

Santa!

Cassidee was lucky enough to get to see Santa many times this year. Between seeing him at Bass Pro, at her school, at Casa Manana, and again at Noteboom Lights, she's had ample opportunity to give him her "wish list" (that seems to be ever-changing!). Her hair wasn't done, and she was in her PJ's for the night, but who can pass up a (free) picture with Santa!

*And seriously, I just want to eat her here in this picture!

(I haven't said that much since she was a baby.....and Jeremy doesn't understand at all when I say that, but seriously.....)

Her exact words: I'm just gonna give you a hug in case I don't see you again for a little while!

The 4 of us!
Ignore Cason's "deer in the headlights" look.....atleast he wasn't crying in this picture!

Merry Christmas!

Country Fun!

Life doesn't get much better than this for two little kids!

Wrappin it up!

Cutie pie wrapping her brother's Christmas present. She even wrote his name on the tag herself!

I'm always playing catch up....

Once again, we've been busy over the last couple of weeks. We hope your Thanksgiving was as blessed as ours. We spent Thanksgiving day with Jeremy's family, had our fun cousins from Colorado staying with us most of Thanksgiving week, and we've done quite a bit of stuff in between. Here are a few pictures:

We went to the Gaylord to see ICE.

Cassidee was our expert poser for the day!

Hand on the hip.....love it!

A failed attempt at a Christmas card picture.....


Two cute boys in their taboggans!

Playing in the train!

Mr. Conductor

Snow bunny!

Cason reminded me of ET when they gave us that huge coat for him!

Entering ICE...

Our freezing family!

Us with the Grinch!

Cason on the ice slide!

Cassidee coming down the slide!

Me-mommy came with us!

Cassidee said she wished she could eat a bite of this yummy cake!

Merry Christmas from my kiddos!

On Thanksgiving morning, like many in the past, my family got up and ran the Turkey Trot in Ft. Worth. Here are mom and Kelsey at the start of the race. There were so many people that it took us 8 minutes after they started the race just to get to the starting line!

This was Cassidee's preferred method of travel....bundled up in the stroller. She slept the entire time we "trotted!"

Don't judge .....I was tired and it was really early in the morning!

Dorks after the race!
