Good bye Snappy

Tonight was Snappy's last night with us here in Austin for the year, so Lauren had to say goodbye to him. She is really going to miss waking up to find him and his little presents every morning! 





Hope to see you next year Snappy! 

getting ready for Santa

After Lauren and Colson exchanged their gifts to each other (a Christmas Eve tradition) Lauren had to leave the special reindeer oatmeal on our lawn so Santa would know to come to our house... She even let Colson help her. These two are just so darn cute together... 






We also left Santa some milk and a cake pop (we never made cookies) and a big carrot for the reindeer. 

now we are ready... 

working hard

Look at these two troublemakers...

Dad and Susie took the kids to the park today to spend some time with them and give us a chance to get ready for the rest of the company. It looks like everyone had a great time.

Lauren grabbed Colson's hand and told him it was time to say prayers. so precious...

bouncy bouncy time

Grandma Betty and Papa Art got the kids a little trampoline to keep at my mom's house. The kids had so much fun bouncing! What a perfect gift. Thank you Grandma Betty and Papa Art!
