After all the hustle and bustle of Friday…Christmas parties, baking cookies, rushing around town fighting traffic jams, and making sure all work was completed was pretty exhausting to say the least! Solomon had his Christmas party. Isaac was the one to attend it, I was having my own Christmas party for work at the same time. Here are some pics from little Solomon’s party.

Solomon and his teacher. He was handing her the present he made….yes yummy Cookies!

Benji, Solomon and his buddies from school

Solomon chillin at his party…cutie pie!
Thank you honey for sending me those pics…gotta love his iphone! As I said before I was unable to attend.
Sooo…we all arrived home from different destinations and took a power nap…much needed! Then Isaac had an idea and said, “Let’s go out somewhere!” It’s not hard to find that somewhere pretty quick! So after picking up my nephew from a friend’s house we decided to go to the Riverwalk where there are tons of Christmas lights. Not to mention we had free parking because my nephew works at a hotel on the Riverwalk…yeah James! We strolled on down to the River and yes it was a beautiful sight. The boys were so happy..you could tell on their little faces. So much to see and hear. We ate a restuarant there on the River and ran into someone on the way back. Can you guess who? Let me give you a couple of hints. He’s big, he wears red and has a long beard. Yes you guessed it, Santa Claus. The boys were so excited and wanted a picture. So here you go. 
Here are some more pics from our night out.
All lit up…how pretty
Cheese!

We had a good time. Well its Saturday morning, gonna make breakfast for my boys, balance the budget and go Christmas shopping for a few more family members that are left. It should be an interesting day…with lots of chaos I imagine…but the sales…yippee! Alright then, have a good day and may you be blessed today.

Before I forget, here is our Christmas pic.

Wow, there has been so much going on, its been pretty crazy! My workload has been doubled because of the upcoming holidays so I’m hustling out there trying to get everything done in a feasible amount of time. Solomon has a lot going on at school…not to mention I am one of the room-moms…so lucky me, I am in charge of the goody bags for the Christmas party this Friday. Well I enjoy doing things like that so not complaining! I’ve got all kinds of yummies planned…I know the kids are gonna love it. I have a Christmas party for work that will take place on Friday as well…so getting ready for the gift exchange….its gonna be fun. I am so thankful for my job, I love it and wouldn’t have it any other way. I have awesome supervisors and the best supportive co-workers. Hey and i also got another raise…so YES I love my job! God you’re the best! I love the flexibility of my job and I love that my youngest does not have to be in daycare…BIG PLUS! Well we are definately excited about Christmas coming up…we are counting down the days. We will be heading to Corpus to be with family, the kids are excited about that. Can’t wait!
So the other day we decided to get in the car and head to Sea World…because its so far away…hehe! Denise, Mike and the girls went also. The boys had so much fun. We got to see the Polar Express in 4D….it was snowing!!! Yea! Then we got to see a couple of shows and the kids enjoyed some rides and played in the park area. It was really nice. And of course here are some pics. Alright then until next post…MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR

I was sitting in the boys room folding clothes, boys were asleep, Isaac’s working on his computer and my nephew is in the living room watching TV. I am enjoying this quiet time with soft Christmas music in the background and all I hear are knocks on the window…ok so I’m freaking out now….who is throwing tiny rocks at the window? Then it dawns on me…those aren’t rocks, thats tiny hail!!! I run to the room and tell Isaac and my nephew…we go out to the patio, a covered one mind you, and sure enough tiny little balls of ice. And the wind chill is so strong we run back inside quickly! Ummm I think I just turned into a little girl with warm thoughts about Christmas…I know I know I’m weird! Isaac laughs at me because the smallest things make me giddy! I can see a deer and I am so amazed at those beautiful creatures that time stands still…for example, I was driving back home from a home visit I did for work and I know this path pretty well, however because I spotted a deer and followed it I got lost…go figure!! Thank God for my VZ navigator! So anyways…I just wanted to write a quick little something before my happy moment is forgotten. I know what I want…i am going to get a hot cup of cocoa with lots of marshmallows and slip into my warm pajamas and yes of course you guessed it…watch some nick@nite. Good night everyone, sleep warm.
