'tis the season to be merry!

We had so much fun celebrating Christmas! We had lots of fun parties with friends from other parts of the city! Here are a few pictures from our White Elephant and Christmas Eve parties!


Christmas Day was spent just with the classes here in the University Town! And we have 3 newest additions! Welcome Home Chris, Anne Marie, and Baby Maddox! What a wonderful gift for us to finally have them here!

On Christmas Day, we got up and cooked until about 10:30 when we had a BIG brunch, complete with Jeff's omelettes, Anne Marie's cinnamon rolls, muffins, my fruit salad (requested again!), bacon, and MORE!


Then, we had a relaxing day watching Christmas movies and TV shows, playing games, lounging around on the "Big Green." :)

In the evening, we opened our Secret Santa gifts and stocking stuffers. My Secret Santa Phillip was so sweet to get me a Starbuck's Travel Mug and a verse written in Chinese!


Although it was much harder being away from my family on Christmas Day this year, I felt lots of love from everyone at home calling me, skyping me, and e-mailing me! Y'all are the best!

Merry Christmas, everyone! I love y'all!

  1. We missed you so much too, but was soooooooo glad we got to Skype, and you got to experience our crazy "Dirty Santa" game.

    Your the best!

    May your heart be filled with the Love that came down on Christmas day all the year through.

    Love you more than all the Christmas lights displayed,

    Mom
