Before Christmas we visited Troy's family in Spring for the Tomball German Festival and our first Christmas gathering. The weather wasn't tremendously cooperative, but the kids had a great time at the carnival before the rain moved in. After the festival on Saturday, we did our family Christmas on Sunday and Ethan got lots of games and dinosaurs and Emily some toys and cute clothes! While Ethan loves all the dinosaurs, I think his favorite gifts were Hungry Hungry Hippos and Don't Break the Ice! :)
Christmas morning we opened gifts when we woke up, and later in the morning Gabby & Peepaw came by for brunch and a visit. We had a nice cozy day at home playing with all the new toys.
Then, the next day we headed up to Dallas to celebrate Christmas with all of our family up there. We enjoyed the day Saturday with Aunt Cindy, Memaw and Papaw and then Sunday we went to spend the afternoon with my Dad's side of the family. Saturday evening was scary because there were multiple tornadoes up in the Dallas area and the sirens were blaring. We were fortunate to be safe and unharmed, but many were not so lucky. Despite another weekend of unpleasant weather, we had a nice time visiting with family and made it back home safe and sound.
