January 2014

January was a great start to 2014. We took a few trips down to Austin, the kids all shared a lovely throw up bug, and there continue to be sweet memories.

Elf Hat 

On New Year's Night, we went to a home in Richardson that is all decked with lights and a "roller coaster" but sadly they weren't open.

I took a picture of the sign, it even says open until New Years Night.  Oh well, next year we will try to go earlier in the season.

Enjoying the glow sticks

At least the Trains at Northpark wasn't closed yet.  The boys loved it.

Avery started laying on the couch like this around her bedtime.  Sweet!

A new trick too

Stopping for a pose.  That doesn't happen often

This is how the boys often greet each other after school, church, or random times during the day.

We went down to Austin for Papa's birthday.  Avery loves playing with her brothers and they are sweet to let her manhandle their faces

Avery LOVES our Christmas Cards we have received and it is an added bonus if there is a dog, a baby, or a dog and a baby!
