The Longhorns had an admirable first season. They won't be going on the the playoffs, but they worked hard and had fun. Special shoutout to #6, who was awesome on defense!

Merry Christmas

What a wonderful Christmas we had! Not because of any presents that were received, but because we celebrated the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. What's more, we did so with family! The Parkers took a surprise trip all the way from Alabama and spent Christmas with us. After opening presents, The Parker Four headed to church for our annual Christmas service, and we spent the afternoon at a luncheon where we served and fellowshipped with our homeless brothers and sisters. What a blessing it was it was to serve others on Christmas, and what a blessing it is to teach our children by example the true meaning of Christmas.

Another Christmas has come and gone! Christmas is so much fun when you have young children in the house. Daddy P and I were excited just in anticipation of Ryan and Evan's excitement. This year they really get Christmas, and they were really into the idea of Santa. Even though we don't do the Santa thing, we played along with them. It would have been cruel not to! Our boys know who Jesus is, and they understand the real meaning of Christmas, so why not have a little fun and get swept up in the magic?  We got dressed in our new pjs, and I made cookies for Santa. The boys decorated them all by themselves! There was lots of icing. LOTS of icing!  We even put out reindeer food!

Once The Peas finally went to sleep it was time for us to get to work. Poor Daddy P...he spent hours assembling things for the boys. I had lots of wrapping to do, but I was over it by the time I made it to those Gap boxes.

The Teenage Mutant Ninja turtles were the star of the show as you can tell! Do you know how hard it is to find all the TNMT action figures times two?! Let's just say I'm glad I started shopping early and I will never get rid of my Amazon Prime membership!
