Our blessing Cole

One of the greatest blessings in our lives has been my cousin and god-brother Cole. He went to be with our Lord in Heaven on Saturday December 26th. This was taken on Christmas day, Cole with sweet Tate who adores and loves cousin Cole. He was feeling fantastic and had many hugs for us all. We miss you and love you dearly darling Cole.

December

This is a collection of some of the things we did this past month. It is in order from most recent to oldest.

My dearest friend from high school was in town for the holiday's. She is expecting her first son and the boys and I were able to stop by and see her for a little bit.

The boys were amazed by Elizabeth's beautiful belly and the baby growing inside her. Tate was sitting next to her for quite some time and at one point he just leaned over and kissed her belly. We had him do it again so I could get a picture. He kept asking her when he could see the baby. She'd say in 6 weeks he'll be ready. Then finally Tate said "Is he in there because you ate him?" It took us all a while to stop giggling from that little comment.

Here we are at my aunt and uncle's house on Christmas day.

Christmas Morning - finishing opening gifts (like I said, we're in reverse order)

Tate loved this soft football Poppa & Nana sent him.

He's slept with it every night since Christmas.

On Christmas Eve it snowed ALL day. It was wonderful and beautiful to have a White Christmas in Texas!! This was all I got as far as a picture of the house.

A big box is the all time favorite toy for any kid.

Julian brought home this sign today. I asked him if he knew what he'd done to get such a great award. He said "I don't know, I think it's because I held the door open for like 99 people."
