Christmas Day

On Christmas Day we drove to Port La Vaca to spend time with Jesse's mom, Wayne, sister, brother in law, and baby Skye. Jesse's mom cooked up a delicious Christmas meal with turkey and all the fixins! Wayne's home is gorgeous and is located in Blue Heron Bay right off the water. It was really nice to be able to spend Christmas day with them!

Christmas Eve

This year we celebrated Christmas Eve at our house and it was packed! We had 22 people here and TONS of gifts everywhere! We love it though and do the same thing every year. We had Argentine Barbeque and all sorts of yummy sides and desserts. It was a blast and Olivia loves having everyone over!

Ugly Sweater Party

My friends Stacy and Nate hosted an Ugly Sweater Party the weekend before Christmas and it was so much fun! There were some super ugly sweaters, but Jennifer's won the prize! I didn't get a picture of Jenn's but man was it hideous! Tons of yummy food and awesome friends made the night quite memorable! Thanks guys-we love you!

Snow in Houston

I still can't believe this happened. It snowed here in Houston-over three inches back on December 4th. I was at work for the majority of it, but it was still so exciting. Here are some pictures from it.

My car had a bunch of snow piled on it so Jesse made this little snow man on my windshield for Olivia

Olivia and her dog Major

So-I've been pretty bad about keeping up the blog, but I thought I would share some random things throughout December and these were first on my camera. Olivia loves her dog Major so much. If we are home this is what she is usually doing-playing with Major on the ottoman.

He can't escape her!
