December and half of January came and went in a crazy whirlwind.
After shopping, school parties and pageants, dentist and doctor appointments, rental cars (we finally got around to taking the Sequoia in after it got rear ended in Oct.), Christmas lessons and talks in church, cooking and delivering Christmas goodies, and getting the house ready we were ready for the Christmas holiday to begin. My parents flew in on the 22nd and spent 10 days with us. It was awesome having them here for Christmas and for the break. We enjoyed many walks around Belterra (as did Molly), going to the Wimberley Trail of Lights, visiting the San Antonio Zoo, Eating great Mexican food on the Riverwalk, hanging out in Zilker Park in the 70 degree weather, and enjoying good food (including some good Texas BBQ).
After my parents flew home on the 31st of December it was scramble time to get Christmas put away, clean the house, and pack for our trip to Utah for the third wedding in Lance's family in the past 6 months. This time we ALL made the trip. It was a fast trip, one I didn't even really take pictures on, and we were home 6 days later.
(We have one more wedding coming up... Adria in May)
Now I'm catching up on life and getting everything back in order and everyone back on a routine.
I'm happy to say that "Blog" is the last thing on my list for today.
So here are some random pictures of the past month and a half, in no particular order.
Liv... 7 months.
We were lucky enough to get one good day of snow while in Utah. The girls were ecstatic!!

Christmas Eve Dinner.
My tradition on Christmas Even is soup, salad, and bread. It's warm and cozy.
I save the big dinner for Christmas.
This year we made Prime Rib, Funeral Potatoes, Asparagus, Rolls, and Trifle for dessert.

Cool lighting.
Smoochable cheeks
I can't seem to get enough of this little girl.
She is so lovable.
I think it's safe to say that I LOVE the baby stage.
Hope everyone's holidays were lovely.
I, for one, had a lovely season but am ready to get normal life back in order and march onto the next stage...
2012.
