No White Christmas for Us, But It Sure Was Fun!!

Well, we just got home from our big Lubbock trip. We ended up staying for 8 days - it was a long trip, but tons of fun. We always have a great time in Lubbock...but oh, the driving. Mercy, it is terrible!

Anyway, we all had a great Christmas, including Katherine!! She got her first Texas Tech onsie, and that just makes her an official member of the family! It's actually got ruffled sleeves - so cute! She also got the most adorable bows that I already have outfits to go with - this girl better have some hair, or I need to buy more of those garter belt looking thingies.

David's visit from Santa went really well. It was actually quite funny. We have the whole thing on video (2 separate occasions) that I'll have to share. He's such a ham. See...video teasers, just to keep you guys comin' back!

Here are a few pictures from the week:

Here's the family with Santa that came to Nana & Pops' (John's sister's husband's parents):

David with the same Santa - last year, he wouldn't go anywhere near Santa at Nana & Pops'!!

David and his cousins tracking Santa online. They kept thinking he was getting close, and this room was also David's bedroom, so he kept telling them they needed to leave so he could go to sleep!

This is David on Christmas morning with a 1st grade math workbook that Santa brought him. His Mousetrap game and Sorry game are also on the table. He had a great Christmas!!

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas too! In the comments, leave what your favorite gift was - either to give or receive! My MIL got me a beautiful laptop bag for work which I love. We gave David a Nintendo DS (last minute decision) and he loves it so much - and he's having a great time learning how to play it. We gave John's grandmother a blanket that she seemed to be really excited about - it's super soft and warm. We also gave John's mom some new software for her Mac - I just hope she doesn't maim us for frustrating her!!
