Day 14-15 In Texas: Christmas With Pappy and Girls Brunch

Day 14: Saturday 12/27
    Today was our Christmas with Pappy and Carol. We woke up early and ate breakfast in our room so we wouldn't wake anybody else up in the house.

Day 11-13 In Texas: Christmas Eve and Christmas With Mimi

Day 11: Wednesday 12/24
     Today was the day to say "see you later" to my parents. It's always tearful, but knowing that we are going to see them in a few months made it a little easier. We packed all our bags, put them in the truck, and took a few pictures before leaving.

Introducing Our Newest Baby

    I would like to interrupt my never ending, day-to-day summary of our trip to Texas by introducing the newest member of our family. Her name is Pearl, and she is a 2 month old Pomeranian.
 Isn't she cute? We have been wanting to get another dog for a while, so we decided we would start looking after Christmas break. Since Aaron picked Kylie, it was my turn to pick our next dog. Little did we know I would find one that I liked so fast! After looking on the Italian style Craigslist, I found a few that I liked and decided to start contacting the owners starting with the cheapest one first. I contacted the owner yesterday {with the help of my Italian speaking friend} and we met with her today.

Day 8-10 In Texas: Christmas With My Family and Time With Big Grandpa

Day 8: Sunday 12/21
    As soon as everybody woke up in the morning, Ellie and Timmy started begging us to open their presents from us. We told them we would do it the night before, but since we didn't get home until late, we never got a chance. Since Nick was going back to Corpus today, we went ahead and did it first thing in the morning.

Day 7 In Texas: Get Together at G&P Ranch

Day 7: Saturday 12/20
   When go to Texas, we love seeing all of our family and friends. The hard part is finding the time to see everyone. My parents had a great idea to have a get together with both my mom and dads sides of the family at my aunt and uncles ranch. This made it so much easier to see my aunts, uncles, and cousins without having to drive all over South Texas. Thank you to everyone that came, I loved seeing each and every one of you. Connor had a really great time playing with his cousins and getting really dirty!
