I started off the fun month of December at "Cookies and Castles" with Jill, Esther, Hilary, Whitney, and Emily!! It's a gingerbread decorating fundraiser for Cook Children's Oncology unit (where I used to work as a nurse). It's always a blast and this year I had enough girls to fill a table!! Thanks girls, I hope you had as much fun as I did. If you want to join us next year let me know!!
Charlie's first black eye (poor angel fell at school). Teacher said he only cried for a minute and then was up and happily playing by the same shelf that he just fell on.
With a few of the couples in our small group at our little Christmas dinner (minus the
Hagans and
Kellys who were there but left before we took the picture)... Pictured are the
Stadlers, the Bakers and the
Beebys! Such a fun group!!
Debbie, Katie, Amanda, Alison and I threw together a little table at the Women's Christmas brunch this year (literally threw it together in about 3 minutes)
Ashley came to town and we celebrated her birthday!! We miss y'all!!

Me and Charlie at his Christmas party at daycare. He had just woken up and was a little surprised to see me on my break from work. It was lots of fun! Do you think we still look alike?
Christmas in Kerrville...
Eating Mom A's green beans. You want one?
The Morans came over on Christmas Eve. Congrats and best wishes for Meredith and Cade's upcoming wedding!! (we missed you Klare)
With my sweet chubby cheeks on Christmas Eve
On a little walk with Carson and Justus throwing berries at Landon. Lots of family love!!
Charlie got a real Tonka truck from us for Christmas. He LOVED taking rides in it while his Daddy and uncles pushed him around the room. He's a little rotten when we are all together in Kerrville because he has 7 adults giving him ALL the attention!! :) But still a SWEET little rotten booger.
Blake came to see Charlie too! (and we got to meet baby Caroline too, precious!!)
One of Charlie's paintings from school
He also painted this picture for us as a Christmas gift :)
Looking out the window at Noni and Boppa's house (at the dogs, saying "dog" about a million times)
My favorite picture of Charlie from Christmas morning!!!!!!!
Landon, Carson and Justus cooking Christmas lunch... well, Carson cooked it and Landon and Justus assisted him!
We FINALLY got to meet Miss Mattfie Ann! Oh my, is she yummy and adorable!! Well, we tried to get a picture of Charlie and Mattie Ann and this was the first try...
And this one was the best that we got :)
We took about 15 different pictures to try and get a good shot of the four brothers at Christmas. Here was one of the many cheesy shots...
Finally this was the best one
Andrew, Justus, Carson and Landon
Playing with all his new toys with Boppa
Charlie's first word was duck so of course he painted some ducks at school
We had a wonderful Christmas this year and hope your's was full of many blessings too!!
