Three years is WAY too long!

So, it's been three years (plus a month) since I've written a blog post.  I think it's mainly because I am on Facebook all of the time.  I update pictures, comments, and activities. But I want to write  a little something about my Christmas break so far.

First off, my family rocks!  I have loved EVERY single bit of my family time this Christmas.  This year we celebrated with the Kuchera's on Saturday, December 21st, the whole Perkins' clan on the afternoon of the 24th, my in-laws the evening of Christmas Eve, Santa Claus on the 25th (along with my in-laws' house for Christmas lunch), and the Hernandez clan on the 27/28th.  Yes, it's a lot, but the stress level this year was so much less.  


What does this mean???  We got to stay in our footed pajamas ALL DAY LONG!  It was A-MAY-ZING!  We played board games with the family, watched TV, and took naps=heaven!











We also have had an Elf on a Shelf that the girls named Mr. Snickerdoodle.  He comes right after Thanksgiving and watches the girls every day and night while doing crazy things throughout the night.  Here is one where he took pictures with all of us when we were asleep!



I don't have a picture of the whole family on Christmas, but I don't need it.  The memories are forever.  We made an amazing brunch with my parents and brother and fiancé Francis.  Chicken and Waffles, Croissants with strawberry butter, bacon, and breakfast casserole.

We also went with my parents to go look at lights around Cedar Park.  We even had a family that was on the Great Christmas Light Fight (https://www.facebook.com/RhodesFamilyChristmas). It was cute.  We also visited Chinati Court (https://www.facebook.com/chinati.court?fref=ts) and Del Norte which is right next to it. That is where we found this: 

When you can't compete, that is what you do!  We also went to Anna Court off of Nelson Ranch Road and those were some bright lights!

All of these Christmas memories come after our unforgettable Thanksgiving memories which we spent in Disneyworld!  Cadyn and Austin got to spend all week at Disneyworld with BOTH sets of their grandparents.  How amazing is that?!  That blog will come later.

I do hope everyone had as amazing of a Christmas as we did!  Happy Holidays and a Safe New Year!
