Christmas

Some of you (OK, I know that there is only one person whom reads this thing) have wondered why it is February (now March) and I still have a post up about Thanksgiving. Well, since we're moving into March, I figured it was time for a Christmas update. We, as usual, went to SA for Christmas. Since both of our parents live there, it's not too much of a surprise to find us there. First, in early December we had my company Christmas party. They always fly us up to Dallas and put us up in a nice hotel in downtown Ft. Worth. As usual, it was very nice and it’s always fun to play dress up (especially since I normally don’t put on a shirt until halfway through the day). Here’s a pic of the Christmas tree in downtown Ft. Worth. They do a really good job of decorating down there.

Of course, we know how to decorate as well. Here’s our awesome tree (without any of the actual decorations on it).

As usual, we spent time with both families. Here are the decorations at my wife’s Grandfather’s house.

Why yes we do live in Texas. How did you guess?

And here’s a picture of the decorations at my sister’s house

No, A&M football is not “above” Jesus, but it is a close second. (OK, not THAT close). Actually, the helmet is what we gave our nephew for Christmas. Neither my sister nor brother in law are very big, but our nephew is HUGE (at 9 months) so we all know he’s going to play football for the best school in the country.

We had a great time in SA, as always. We love seeing our family and spending time with them and the joy of Christmas and the birth of our Savior is always a favorite time of year. Here’s hoping (in March) that you and yours had a joyous, blessed Christmas.
