Okay I know it's a little late but we do hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas! We did have a really great time in Texas again this year but missed our family that couldn't be there with us. We also thought alot about my dad and Travis's grandpa as this was our first Christmas without both of them- but we know they were very close! Here are just a few highlights.....
Somehow my best friend Jenn's dad knew how to get a hold of Santa Clause and asked him to come over to my mom's house on Christmas Eve to visit my nieces! It was very exciting especially when Santa made me, my sister, and my mom sit on his lap and tell him what we truly wanted for Christmas. But, the best part of the visit was my niece Makell thinking she sealed the deal in asking Santa Clause for the second time for a 4 wheeler! She is eight and lives in the suburbs of Houston, Texas. It just so happens that Santa called back later that night to tell Makell's mom that 4 Wheelers might be too dangerous!
My brother-in-law Todd and Travis making what is now referred to as “Pakka Breakfast.” My nieces and nephew called my dad Pakka and he used to make a big breakfast every Christmas morning. Travis also went on to make an AMAZING Christmas dinner of Prime Rib! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my Master Chef!
I really didn't ask for anything for Christmas and didn't really need anything but my amazing husband got me this: a blue topaz ring that matches my wedding ring. It is to wear on my right hand and represent my dad- beautiful! Miss Jenn Cook also totally surprised me by giving me a HP Photo printer to feed my scrapbook obsession. Way too nice!
