December 2011

I am slowly but surely catching up on this blog.  After this blog it'll be at least the same year.  I only have a few weeks before I'm behind a year again.  I think I can, I think I can.  

Here are a few pictures from our Irish Society Luncheon.  We had a good time.

 

Some photos of the play that Mattie and Emma were in.  Mattie was a star and Emma was in the chorus.  They did great!

Greta and Phoebe's Christmas production at Creche, their preschool.

Not sure if she was supposed to be up or down low!

Greta's birthday...she got a phone

We had the IJM Christmas party at our house.  We had a lovely time!

Our travels then took us back home for Christmas.  We started in Houston, then went to Nashville.  It was a great time and very special for all of us.  We hadn't had Christmas in the States since 2008 so it was wonderful.

we love Gaga.

We had a performance one night...everyone had to participate.

Dad not too impressed with Shawn's pool skills

Best friends.

The family!

Now off to Nashville...we went ice skating...so much fun.

Christmas at the Kohl's was as usual a blast.  This year all the brothers and sisters were there so it made for quite a party!

My favorite picture ever.  So blessed to have married into this crazy awesome family.

We also got to spend time with our wonderful nephews Billy and his wife and Chris.  We are lame and didn't take photos but I believe there are a few on facebook.  We had an awesome time with all of them.  

The girls also had fun just playing at Hilhu and Papau's house.  They wandered around by the creek and went on hikes with Shawn.  

I believe that's about all I have for December.  We had such fun this Christmas and while it won't be until December 2013 that we'll be able to spend Christmas with all the family.
