Happy New Year!!

Well, here it is…the Christmas Picture.  Yes, we could have used a haircut, yes, we probably needed something for static control, yes, the baby probably needed shoes, yes, Westin’s left leg looks unusually long and..um..bent..BUT, the deed is done. 

Things are finally getting back to normal around here.  The holidays are a welcomed break from a schedule, but it also feels good to get things back on track.  Westin would definitely not agree with me, since he finds 9:00 way too early to get in bed these days!  Speaking of Westin, I just don’t know how he does it.  We are going to two-hour baseball practices three days a week right now (and we make our first showing for a game in the first weekend in March – could this be considered overkill?).  We are also going to at least one basketball practice each week with a couple of games thrown in there too!  Thank goodness gas prices are down with all of our trips to Amarillo!  Even though he is very busy, he is enjoying every minute of it.    Here is the holiday experience break down:  It’s much more enjoyable if you sing it to the tune of the William Tell Overture!

Where’s Westin’s phone, where’s the phone, where’s the phone phone phone?

We ordered it from Hong Kong three weeks ago.

Could it be that Ebay is not the way to go?

Oh, we got it!!  But what exactly is band width???…

 

Santa came, Santa splurged, he ate and then he left.

Baby Alive, here she is, and yes she pees and poops.

Oh, But Mom, I must have blown it with Jolly Old St. Nick

Because what I really wanted was a Barbie Car…

 

Here we go here we are in warm Waco

Westin’s banned from golf carts at PawPaw’s country club.

With more clothes and more toys and a Cousin Christmas picture,

We venture back home and it takes us twelve hours…

 

Another big adventure to Abilene,

We saw Corey and Jenny and the very pretty girls,

UGG this, text that, oh, to be a teen again!

Nevermind, I can’t afford it!!!…

 

Now it’s time for Westin’s 11th birthday party.

Here’s hoping to no emphysema from the bowling alley,

And thanks to Forrest for hosting 10 boys for a sleepover-

They survived, and he did, too!!!…

THE END

 

And here’s to surviving until next year!!

 

Miss Lily Kate for her three month picture (and her first studio picture):

I’m sure you can tell that Little Lil hasn’t missed many (or any) meals!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!
