Houston Family of Four: Christmas Week!

The chaos of the Holidays is over and the christmas decorations are being taken down, but the memories of this holiday season will last forever. Our holidays are so much like everyone elses, occupied by coming and going from place to place. Visiting and traveling all over. Most importantly we were surrounded by people who we love and love us the entire week of Christmas.
Tyler was fun this year, from believing in Santa, to talking muddles our elf every night before bed, to helping Sam open her gifts. He was a joy to be around all week.
Sam was a charmer. She knew how to warm everyones hearts at the Christmas parties with her pretty blues eyes. She would go from person to person to just to give hugs.
I could blog hundreds of pictures, Aunt Kathy's Christmas Eve, Grandma Tondas, and Grandma and Grandpa Cow's but I will pick a few that sum up our holidays.

We opened presents at Grandma Tonda's Christmas Eve morning which was nice because we then had breakfast and got to spend the day relaxing and playing. Tyler can't get enough of being around Uncle Rob and Uncle Jim...and Sam couldn't part from Aunt Sara.

My little princess...you should see her walk in heals!

Tyler has a hat to match Uncle Robs...he is ready for a trip to the mountain!

We went to Aunt Kathy's Christmas Eve night for a family party. It was a BLAST! Kelly and Jeremy were home from Florida, Rob, Jim and Sara home from Oregon, and Grandpa was even home. With all the food, the kids playing, Guitar Hero, and a mini engagement celebration for Rob and Sara, the night was perfect.
