Day 3



On Saturday morning we headed back over to Grandma's house to help her run and errand and then say good-bye. Our time had just flew by, but we really really glad to be able to get there and see her.


After leaving her house we headed back to Missouri, this time it was to see my grandparents in Houston. This trip was about a 3 hour trip, which wasn't too bad. It was a very pretty drive. We were really excited to get there. It had been a long time since i had been out to the farm and a even longer time since i had seen my cousins, who now all have kids too. We had a great time there, again our time just flew by. The weather was perfect which was nice so the kids had lots of room to run and play outside with their "new" cousins, as Makayla would say. They all had a blast and it was nice to get to sit and catch up with everyone. The kids also had fun with their new friend the cat. I had been telling the girls that on the farm they have cows, a dog and cats. I didn't realize that the only cat they had wasn't very friendly and rarely came out to see anyone, so soon after we got there we were all just sitting around outside and visiting, when all of a sudden from no where a little black cat came to visit. Of course the girls were so excited to see a cat and it was the best little cat just letting the kids pick it up and hold it. I think the cat was pretty excited to find such a good home where it got feed pretty well and lots of attention.

Welcome to our home at Christmas. When I heard that Boomama was going to be having a Christmas Tour of Homes , I thought that sounded like so much fun because so many of our family and friends aren't able to make it out to visit us during the Christmas season. So here are a few pictures of our home decorated for Christmas. As you walk in our front door we have this little tree sitting in our entry way As you can see I really like snowman! This is leading into the family room... This tree is in our family room and it is decorated with all of our family ornaments. Each year we buy the girls an ornament that represents something from the year for that child. It is a tradition that I have continued from my childhood. My favorite ornaments are the ones that are homemade by the girls! This is our big tree that is more formally decorated and is in our living room. This is our third year with an artificial tree which is definitely less messy but we have had lots of fun with the pre-lite l
