Christmas 2012
Another great year :) This time her #1 gift:
We have plenty of yard for it, too! She loves it and runs the 2 hour battery down easy! She only got to enjoy it for one morning before we headed to Paul's parents' for Christmas this year. And we just got home yesterday but it's been raining nonstop! The desire to ride is killing her :)
Half of the gifts in this picture aren't hers. She received plenty this year but not so many so as to induce that feeling of gift-guilt! Besides, she never made a list (didn't want to, other than wanting the car and a few others) so she gets what she gets!
This Rapunzel hair was actually something she asked for.
She also asked Santa for snow. He left her a note next to the cookie dish saying that he's sorry he couldn't make it snow in Houston so he left her a cup of snow from the North Pole in our freezer. She loved that :)
She did receive a sinus infection, and the gift of antibiotics :) It's ok, she's rarely sick so we can take it! And it seems rather mild.
Back at Nanee's:
Nice dog! LOL!
They climbed the tree, picked all
Of these, and sold them on the corner in 40 degree weather!
They had a few buyers!
And each earned $4.50 in college tuition.
Then she and Audrey went crazy snapping photos:
We had a fun time and got to eat some great homemade gumbo and catch up with the family. Now back at home, we are going to the Houston Ballet Nutcracker performance today with her friend Emma and her mom. Girls' day!
She's already making plans for her birthday :)
