Christmas in Southlake

Most of my pictures are on the actual camera. I didn't take many on my phone but here are a few. We got so many presents and are so blessed in so many ways! We played spades and ate lots of food. Katie had very bad luck while we played games and everyone who was her partner was so confident the would win... But they lost. :-( it was fun though and I was impressed with how she handled herself with each loss. We are all growing up. Clark played with us a couple of hands and it was really fun! I love my sweet family! 

On Thursday night we went to eat at On The Border and the. Were going to go to Prairie Lights but the line was rediculous. So instead we drove around Southlake. We saw some beautiful lights and some inspiration for next year. This year we didn't really decorate :-( but next year.. We will!!

Friday morning we woke up and got ready to take a McCoy family photo. They turned out so good! 

Christmas at Maw Maws

Maw Maw had a very special visitor! Santa!! We had so much fun with the Clark Family! It's always so fun to get together with everyone! Jude was not quite sure what to think of this Santa. His first Santa picture was good because mom was ticking him (see picture from gingerbread house) but this time he was a little confused! Haha. Especially when he say mama kissing Santa clause! :-) 

Jude and Leah had a great time playing with Jude's dollar gift from target! Ha oh the little things.. 

Using a spoon

Learning how to use a spoon is a hard task. He wants to do it all on his own but keeps dropping the food. It makes me laugh. He'll get it soon enough and be a pro in no time! 

Santa and Gingerbread Houses

Santa and Gingerbread Houses! 

We had so much fun going to the Worlds Largest Gingerbread House! We even got to see Santa!! The outside of the house was completely made out of candy. And then on the inside were smaller houses made by some students at Brazos Christian. Jude enjoyed looking at all the houses and candy. He also did pretty well with Santa. That is after I started tickling him. He wasn't too sure when I first put him in his lap but I think that would have happened no matter who I would have given him to. I then went and ticketed him and I think we got some great pictures!
