Sugar Cookie Playgroup









So I started a playgroup a few weeks ago. We meet every Tuesday. I am so excited because it is a great group of women and sweet little kiddos. It gives me a chance to have some adult time and Trevor the chance to interact with more kids. So this past Tuesday I decided to make sugar cookies. So we covered the table in wax paper, helped the kids roll out their dough and go to town with the cookie cutters. It was a blast...a mess, but definitely a blast. Anyhow, if anyone has ideas for kids under 3 to do, please feel free to share your ideas with me. I really want to make this a fun, productive time for everyone.

The Joyner/Sevy Bonfire







So Saturday we met the Sevy's at Spring Creek Park for a fun little bonfire. Not sure how cold it was outside, but at least we had a fire. Trev and Kenzie are way cute even though they can't seem to quite share yet. All in good time:) Anyhow, after a fun afternoon with some yummy smores I think we have come to the conclusion that we are going to go camping. FYI Kristy took the pictures and they are so amazing. She has some way awesome talent...in everything, but especially in photography!

Ice in Houston

So this was hilarious, yesterday Jason and I were out running around and drove by this house on Cypresswood across from the Temple. Keep in mind, we are in HOUSTON people. It was so funny because so many people busted a u-turn just to see this. That is how rare ice is in Texas. I am sure the people in the house were not very happy at all of the traffic in front of their house. Especially when Jas decided to pull in their driveway to get the picture. But you would think if they had the money to live in that big house and have hired maintenance running it, someone would have got the memo that it was going to FREEZE in Houston and they would have turned it off. The high yesterday was 26.



So then this morning on the way to my hair appointment(20 degrees outside) I drove through ice, saw icicles everywhere and then in front of a big neighborhood a whole pond was frozen over on top. So much for Global Warming.

Christmas Day and Night

We spent Christmas Day with Jason's family. It was a blast playing with the kiddos outside with their hand gliders. We ate like crazy, played like crazy and opened presents like crazy. Just a side note: The teal and brown quilt was my latest project that I made for Mary and Rusty. The beautiful crochet blanket was made by my mother inlaw for Jas and I. I love it!!!










Christmas Morning(Home Sweet Home)

Christmas Morning was a dream come true. We wanted so bad this year to wake up and enjoy Christmas as our own Little Family and we did. Trev woke Jas up by running into the room saying "Wate Up Da-ee...o-ten pretents". It was so stinkin' cute. We spent the morning opening presents, playing with toys, watching a new movie, eating a hot breakfast and just relaxing.




Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve day we went to the Aquarium with Mary and Rusty(Jason's sister and hubby). That was a blast although the food was not as good as I remember. Trev had a blast through all of the exhibits. He had the chance to pet a stingray, almost a shark and a starfish. Then we ended the evening at my memaws' for Christmas Eve dinner and presents. Trevor is so spoiled!!!








Christmas at my Parents


Christmas started at my parents the weekend before. We decided that Christmas day was going to be relaxing for us so we split the day into 3 nights we different parts of the family. I wish I had more pics at my parents, but I think they are on my dads camera. Anyhow, Trev got a 4-wheeler from his Pawpaw and Oma!
