This year we were happy to spend the holidays in our new house, with our new baby. Hooray for Penny's first Christmas! She has really brought Joy to our World, and we are so thankful for our sweet baby girl! This was also Cooper's first Christmas to kind of understand what was going on. He loved to sing the Christmas songs he learned in school, and would always shout, " SANTA CLAUS!" when ever he saw him. We celebrated in our usual fashion: Chili and tamales with the Grahams on Christmas Eve, then present-opening at our house on Christmas morning, followed by more presents and dinner at Grandma and Grandpa Graham's house. On the day after Christmas, we traveled to Houston to be with the Kirks. We had a wonderful holiday!

| "'Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house..." |
 |
| "Not a creature was stirring...except Mom and Penny!" |
 |
| As I was saying..."Not a creature was stirring..." |
 |
| Good Morning...and Merry Christmas! |
 |
| After the mayhem... |
 |
| Cooper loved his new toys, especially Rocky the Crane, Tiny the Dinosaur, and Super Why....yes, I sound like an ad for PBS. It's all we watch, I swear. |
 |
| Opening presents is hard work! I need a nap! (says Mom) |
 |
| We can go to Grandma's...after I finish this new Thomas the Train book! |
