What have we been doing???

This season has gone by soo fast!! We began with a party with some friends who had a huge tree. I collaborated on a little cake for our Principal's 50th birthday, and the girls enjoyed a hayride and caroling birthday party around the neighborhood. What fun!! In the meantime Santa's workshop was busy making gifts and tassels, completely taking away the dining table for about two weeks. Kendall sang beatuifully in her Christmas Program, and was so excited to dress up. Poor girls, we have to get out more! Christmas came and went, and the girls certainly raked it in. Our favorites right now are the ipod and the nintendo ds. The family has been sharing Caroline's Rock Band, and finds David and I playing well after the girls go to sleep!! Santa brought me a new dining room table and it arrived today. The girls were eager to help David assemble it (I'll post more about it later).
How blessed we are, to have such a bounty with family and friends to share with. As this precious season comes to an end, know that we count you as a blessing to us. Your friendship and love shine bright in this weary world. We love you and wish you a fruitful new year!!!

My new obsession..

is tassels. Aren't they pretty?? I was in a open house yeseterday, and this is a sampling of what I sold. They are the prettiest things you'll never need but have to have. You can put them anywhere: armoires drawer knobs, lamps, canisters, bed posts, the possibilities are endless!! Needless to say the response was good and the party a sucess. What do you think??

SNOW IN COLLEGE STATION !!!

So we woke up to this this morning...since my camera is still in Houston, it didn't dawn on me till the girls left for school, that my phone had a camera on it. SO all the cool snowballs that David and the girls made, as well as Kendall daring to stick her tongue to the pole, will just have to be left you your imagination. I'm sure it will be spot on!! Kendall predicts that we will be having snow till after Santa comes. Caroline thinks it will be hot tomorrow so she can ride her bike to school. I guess that's Texas for you....
