Christmas....The Recap

-
So Christmas was a whirlwind.  It just came and went so quickly.   This year it seemed like we were all sick.  I was sick for over a week, including christmas eve and day.  Both girls had colds.  My parents were sick....it was everywhere.   We spent lots of time resting and getting better. My pictures aren't great but I felt like garbage.  So here is the recap.


First we had a Christmas party with my Mom's family.  Its a crazy crew.   Great dinner, gifts galore,  kids everywhere, a hayride and one very late night..... a few fun pics from that night.





Rheagan had tons of fun at her school parties too.  Polar Express day on Thursday and her Christmas party on Friday.  Clutch and I stopped by to help and enjoy a little party fun.


yup, I made her shirt...love it!!!


Christmas Eve....Every year my family comes over to eat dinner with us on Christmas Eve.  This year  everyone was feeling a little under the weather.  We had dinner, put out reindeer food, made Christmas cookies and quickly got everyone ready for bed.   We didn't spend nearly as much time taking pictures of our traditional matching Christmas PJ's but I got a cute one of the girls being "surprised" by santa!!!

and yes, sleeveless and capris on Christmas day....Texas weather....crazy.






We had a great Christmas.    I love the holidays.   Onto the new year.  I know 2013 will bring so many amazing moments for my family.

To my sweet baby girl--can't believe you just turned 6. Where have these 6 years gone.   I look at you and I can’t believe what a an amazing kid you have become.  You seem so small at times and then you speak and the whole world turns to listen to what my little “big girl” has to say.  You are AMAZING.   You are so smart.  You have learned so much this year.   You can tie your shoes, you love gymnastics, you can read, you have been tested into the GT program at school, your teachers love you, your friends love you, and you are a great student.   We are so proud. I love how you pay attention to every little detail of everything.   You never cease to amaze me at how much you know about “everything”.     I love how good you are at gymnastics---You are just built for it.    You are strong and your coaches just can’t get enough of you.    I love how you always want yo...

In January last year I started a photo project called For the Love.....30 days of photos, 1 photo each day, all black and white.     I love all of the images I got and promised myself I would do them every January, every year.   I actually had an album made from last year's images.   I LOVE IT....  This January, I started out on my FTL project but only got about 4 days in before I decided it wasn't going to work....We had so much rain in January and in February that I had a really hard time getting images.   Plus, with daylight savings time and cloudy skies in the afternoon I had no chance of getting any good light for pictures once I got home from work.    So this year I am changing up my FTL project a little.   I am going to wait and start this project in June---when I am home and can really spend some time on it.  I think I will also mix in some color images.....haven't decided yet....guess we will see in June. Soooo, instead I...

So it's Thursday..... 1.Guess where I'm going tonight.......BRING IT ON!!!!!  I am so excited, Bring it on the Musical is at the Hobby Center and I'VE GOT TICKETS!   I know it's cheesy but for 1,  I love going to the theater, and 2,  I love anything and everything cheerleading---brings me back to my childhood!   2.  I am so sick of this rain---this gloomy weather makes me want to stay in bed.  I'm ready to see the sun--I've got Spring Fever.   I can't wait for warm weather, the beach, vacations, and spending time with the family.  Every year we vacation to the New Braunsfels with the inlaws, to Livingston with my parents, to the Ranch in Segno and then we plan our vacation--kid vacation, adult vacation we trade off every other summer.   This summer is an adult vacation---the kids are going with the grandparents and we are hitting a beach somewhere---I can't wait.  **although a little part of me is gonna miss disney world. ...
