Christmas Wrap Up

We have had a fun, pretty low key Christmas!

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care...

We hosted a couple of parties at our house.

Party time!

Judd had a minor surgery the Friday before Christmas.  He did great!

6 days post op and looking really good!  All reports clear!  Praise the Lord!

I don't have any pictures to show, but we took the boys to a Cirque Du Soleil show for an early Christmas gift.  It was fantastic!

Here we are on Christmas Eve at church.

Candlelight services are my favorite!

If you look close, you'll see that Santa came!

Or, did he???

We played a trick on the boys.  This year we had to put the tree and presents in the office because of Cooper.  They are used to "Santa" leaving presents by the fireplace.  I thought it would be funny to leave them a lump of coal as a joke!  Hee Hee!

Their BIG gift was a real surprise (especially for Jack who thought he would NEVER get a phone of his own)!  Ha!

This one just took it all in and enjoyed all the goodies Santa brought him and his brother!

My boys know me well!  LOL!....

We went and looked at some Christmas lights at a park in Dallas one night.  It was chilly, but nice to walk off some of the extra calories we have been consuming!

And then it was time for the dreaded cleanup.....

We met the Waltke's and the Dalton's for lunch this past Saturday in Roanoke.  It was great getting the group together again!

We made a stop by UNT in Denton on our way home to take a peek at the campus.  It was a really big campus and not far from home (which I happen to like)!  ;)

 That pretty much wraps up our 2017 Christmas!  It was quiet, but fun!

Merry Christmas from our family to yours!
