December Birthdays

December is a busy birthday month for the kindergartners in Abby's class. So the moms of the December babies got together and had a December birthday party to celebrate them all at once. Each kiddo brought one gift to exchange with the other kids at the party, it was such a neat idea. The party had cookie decorating, ornament making and Santa dress up! Abigail had such a good time.

Sister Love

These girls have a lot of fun together. We love seeing their relationship grow and evolve. It's especially sweet for mommy to watch since she didn't have any young siblings around her age growing up. We hope they continue to have a sweet, loving relationship as they get older.

Much Love,

Abby's Christmas Program

The kindergarten classes had their Christmas program last night. All the kiddos had to dress in jeans and a Christmas shirt. Abigail picked out a cute reindeer sweeter with bells and lights to wear for the program. She was very excited before the program, but when she walked into the auditorium she couldn't spot mom & dad right away so she looked a little concerned. Once she spotted us, she was good to go. It was such a cute program!

Outdoor Play



It's still not super cold outside, so this weekend we decided to get outside and play while we still can! Allison has a trike that we can push around and she loves it. Abigail got her bicycle and the girls rode around the back yard all afternoon. They had such a good time and we had a good time watching them! Love those girls.

Much Love,

Breakfast with Santa

This Saturday morning we went to have breakfast with Santa. The girls love this because it's Santa and breakfast! This year was no exception....except Allison was not a fan of Santa for some reason. She did great when we visited Santa a few weeks ago, but this time around she refused to sit on Santa's lap! So dad & mom got in the picture too!

Much Love,

21 Months Old

Allison is now 21 months old! It's remarkable how much she imitates her older sister and wants to be like her. Allison follows her big sister around the house and now when we take pictures she tries to mimic sister's poses. It's precious. Allison also has developed her vocabulary very quickly and parrots a lot of the things we say. We have to be careful sometimes! She loves a lot and is a sweet soul, but she doesn't take any 'stuff' from anyone!

Pop turns 80!

Thanksgiving this year was special. Pop was turning 80 on the day after Thanksgiving so we decided to spend Thanksgiving in Arkansas to celebrate Pop's 80th. Pop & Mumzie arrived in Dallas on Sunday so we picked them up since we were already in town. The girls had such a good time spending the week with Pop & Mumzie. Abigail was all about Mumzie and even got to have a special "girls day" with Mumzie on Wednesday. We hosted our first Thanksgiving this year, we had 22 people! It was our first round with a Turkey and dressing and it went better than we expected!

On Saturday, we headed up to Kurt & Sarah's for the big 8-0 celebration. It was a celebration! With everything that Pop has been through this year, medically, we were all so thankful he's here to celebrate. He's tough and a fighter. He's charismatic and funny. He's got a heart of gold, but fists of steel when necessary. His legacy was evident with all the laughter and smiles that evening. It truly was a special night of celebration. We love 'ol Pop and loved celebrating his big day!

Much Love,
