OS Ranch Museum, Post, TX

On our way to Lubbock for Laura and Matt's graduations last week, we stopped in Post, TX, to see the many, many nativity scenes and other items they had on display.







We had a fun time!

Meeting Baby Evan

Last week Claire and I got to meet baby Evan! We didn't see him long, but he seems like a sweet little guy.


Claire checked out her new cousin.

But I think Ryan's toy was more entertaining!

We also got to see Liz and McKinley for a few minutes before we left. - And they got to meet baby Evan, too!

It's Time to...

Curl up with a good book!

Zoo Lights

The Baton Rouge Zoo has some Christmas lights on display. We went on a family outing a couple of nights ago to see them. Enjoy!

Birthday Breakfast

Before I left Dallas, we had a birthday breakfast! That was fun! Dad made waffles and sausage, (my favorite!), and Mom made a pound cake. - I said that I could put fruit on it, so we could eat it in the morning. I did have a piece in the morning, but I don't think anyone else did!




Taylor didn't want his picture taken.

But he did want A&M to be represented by his sweatshirt, so they had to turn it around.

Finally, the sweatshirt was off, and we got a picture of these two happy faces!

I got a CHI!

Taylor made me a birthday card that he made. It said "30" all over it - not to rub it in, but just because he couldn't think of anything else to say.

Claire seemed to enjoy the birthday party.

She loved the tissue paper the best, I think - because she took it out of the bag,

she held onto it,

and she rolled in it!


Blowing a kiss!
