The Limo Ride

Last March we finished building our home in Katy, Texas and were finally able to move in. For our house warming gift our builder gave us a very generous gift certificate for dinner and a two hour limo ride. We decided to invite some of our closest friends The Johnson's, The Jone's, and the Taggart's. We had a blast.

Christmas Day 2006

Christmas home and away

This Christmas was different from any other. It was the first Christmas we stayed home. Every year we have lived away from home we have found ourselves plunging into the hustle and bustle and holiday travel but, this year was different in a good way. We slept in, checked out the new Train Table Santa delivered, stayed in our p.J.'s all day, and enjoyed being together as a family.

What is with all of the silly faces, Kai?

You may ask yourself...how can there be a snow day in tropical Katy, Texas? The neighborhood we live in is absolutely wonderful. The first Saturday in December every year they arrange to have man-made snow delivered. The kids look forward to it all year and have a blast when it finally arrives!

Family Photo Shoot

My friend Wendy is a wonderful photographer and after taking 140 pics on two seperate days... one of them turned out. Taking pictures with a 3 and a 1 year old are absolutely impossible. Thanks Wendy for doing such a great job. You are the best!!

I absolutely love this pic of the boys!!
