The holiday season this year was a blur. Seems like the world was spinning twice as fast as usual.
The week before Thanksgiving and the week after Thanksgiving Craig and I made 2 quick trips to Austin to help Kim and Mark close-in their
utility room. It looks fantastic!
The weekend of December 9th, Kimberly and Chloe came to Houston. Kimberly took me to see the Houston Ballet's Nutcracker. We had a great girls night out while Pop (Craig) had Chloe duty. Mark was unable to come because of work.

While Chloe and Kimberly were here Chloe decorated some Christmas cookies to take back to her Daddy.

| Of course she needs to try a few. |

A couple of weeks went by and the whole gang arrived for Christmas.

| My mom came for Christmas. We were all glad she could make it this year. |
Last but not least, here are a few of our goofy photos from Christmas 2011.

My kids are such good sports. Love my little sock money's.
