All Caught Up...

After a blog binge the last couple of days, I can say I am officially all caught up with my blog. I can't tell you the last time that has happened, but it was probably this time last year. I have so so so so many pictures to edit in the next couple of weeks I knew all my pictures wouldn't get edited or posted. So I did them first! Thankful for the chance to document these memories and my sweet babies!

Love these outfits!
 Best dentist ever... Dr.Rex! The kids can't wait to go!


 Reagan wouldn't get on the table, but Dr. Rex let her assist with Mason and Micah and when it was her turn she jumped right up!
 Santa at Bass Pro...
 A picture of the picture....
 We did a Christmas Light scavenger hunt that was so fun! We developed a new tradition. This was Reagan's:-)
 Mason was at school and I needed an oil change. I let the girls get their nails painted.
 They asked if Reagan was a boy... with her favorite attire an aggie jersey, jeans, and running shoes I can see why they asked.
 She wanted orange which is her favorite color like Mason. But as Micah said, " She can never go get her nails painted again." That girl peeled off every one of them before we made it home.

 Then we got a hair cut... self improvement day for the 2 year old...
 Friday...9:00 am and on their way to see Star Wars!
 I don't know who was more excited... and the LOVED it!
 We went by and gave Ms.Staci her Christmas present...
 A happy mommy....all my babies sitting with me!
 Christmas cookie time...
 Micah was watching them bake...

 Works of art...

 A couple too many sprinkles...

 Decorating our wrapping paper....
 The finished gingerbread house product...
 Micah thought she was going swimming as soon as she got to GiGi and PaPa's...
 Well they did! Christmas Eve and Christmas Day swims in 89 degree weather...




 Now she was cold and wanted mommy to hold her...


 Christmas morning presents at Grammies...
 Micah wanted a "real" camera...
 Mason got his Lego The Mine...
 And a big Elmo for Reagan...
 The day after Christmas I flew to Dallas to photograph a wedding of a family friend from Burleson. Despite the awful weather, it was a beautiful wedding and I was so glad I got to be a part of it!
 Now flying out was a different story. I got to the airport about 8:30 for my 10:20 flight. Long story short it was delayed, but took off about 12:30. We were about 10 minutes away from McAllen and they made us turn around and go back to Dallas. There was a mechanical problem and they didn't want to land in McAllen because they couldn't fix it there. All the flights were booked until Wednesday, but was I was at the ticket counter a flight opened up on the 10:30pm flight. I waited all day just for that one to be canceled. I rented a car and drove back to Boerne the next morning. Craig and GiGi packed up all the stuff and Craig headed back with the kids. I finally made it home around 1:30 with no luggage as I just got it today (Sunday...6 days later!) It was by no means ideal but it could have been worse. Thanks to GiGi for helping get everything together, and Craig driving them back by himself. He said the kids did great!
 Finally all together!!!! Micah kept saying "you said you would be back on Monday." and Reagan said," Mom you plane broke and you got a car." Ha!
 New Years Eve we had the Harpers over for dinner which happened to be their 10th anniversary. Fun to celebrate with them again 10 years later! We did fireworks until the cops shut us down!

 These two look more like siblings then any of the others. Reagan loves her Truett!
 Craig took Mason and Micah to the movies but Reagan got a mommy date to get ice cream She thought she had the better end of the deal!

 Chuck E Cheese for Whittens 5th birthday!
 Happy Birthday Whitten!

 And one of my dear friends Chrystal welcome her sweet boy, Cody Ray, on December 28th. I finally got to see him today. He is so precious!
