"I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas" Christmas 2009

We were so blessed to have such a wonderful Christmas! Snow in Texas, my niece's 2nd birthday (on Christmas Day), and a special time with family. This year the family pitched in we got the a 2 seater car (see below). They were so overwhelmed!! We called it a "Country Christmas" this year; and had barbeque, mac n cheese, potatoe salad, coleslaw, beer, and smores out by the fire. Hope you all had a Merry Christmas!!!

My niece Aydia turned 2 on Christmas Day!

Snow in Texas this Christmas!! Kobi loving the snow!
