MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Oh what a good girl I've been!

Christmas 2012 was spent with our good 'ol Texas-turned-Florida friends, the Moores.

Ryan and Lilly eating cake!

Sleeping under the tree!  Lorin, Chloe, Madelyn, Izzy, Ryan, Lilly, and Graf.

Presents galore!

This year Ryan wanted an American Girl Doll

Though the new computer wasn't just for Ryan, she had a way of marking her territory :)

Ryan's creativity never ceases to surprise me...this time with playdough from her stocking!

Lots of creepy crawly critters that look like they came straight out of Monster Bug Wars!

Brooks and Ryan racing cars.

Sledding down our street with Dad, Izzy and Graf.

And in the back yard.

Izzy and Ryan, as usual, two (frozen) pees in a pod.
