Christmas Present

So, my Christmas present came early this year....

Not only did it snow here in Houston a couple weeks ago,

Jakob went and bought lights and decorations for outside the house.
This will be the first year we REALLY decorated for Christmas. Granted, we aren't putting up a tree, but it's not worth it since we won't be around. I'm just happy to have some rejuvenated holiday spirit, and I'll be reminded of it every day when I come home!!

Thanksgiving

Well, although it's a little late to be posting about Thanksgiving, I figured I should share some of the family photos from our visit. We spent Thanksgiving day with Jakob's family. We visited with Baw-Baw, doted on the twins, and spoiled Taylor rotten!

Jakob also got some time with his cousin Ashley and her husband Jimmy.

All in all we had a great visit, displayed in the pictures below!
