Christmas in Texas

We were excited to be invited back to Grandma and Grandpa's house for Christmas this year. Im sure Biscuit had something to do with it ;) We love Christmas in Texas! We always try and stay for 3-4 weeks lounging, laughing, making memories like Fort Worth Zoo, jumping into the freezing pool, Gaylord's Ice Spectacular, Manheim Steamroller, teeth cleanings, the Club, Les Mad, Mega Blaster Web Shooter, Kid Country, Shanny dance parties, Iphone game sprees.
Brett is now permanatly down in Texas attending Baylor Dental School. It was fun to see his apartment downtown. Shannon is 15 almost 16 and seriously the best babysitter in the whole world. Diana came down from Utah where she is almost done with medical assisting school. Great little family reunion!
So I'm not going to say names but someone I know forgot to bring the camera with him. These are just a few pictures I was able to steal from my sisters camera. I'll add more from my cell phone when I can figure out how to do it.

This was us EVERY night.

THE christmas gift. Jace wrote santa twice for the Mega Blaster Web Shooter. He was sooo crushed when all the presents were opened and no web shooter. Santa didnt leave it out with all the other presents. However Jace got a phone call from Santa asking if he was a super good boy. Good thing he was because Santa left a secret gift hiding in a Spiderman bag for him! He face tells it all.

Near the end of our trip, we went to the Fort Worth Zoo. It was completely vacant! Brenna's favorite animal was the "pink mingos" and Jace loved the big lion.
