Snow in TX!

We had a WHITE Christmas in TX! Maybe we shouldn't have gotten rid of all those puffy coats, gloves, hats, shovels, and sleds! It was fun to see snowflakes falling on Christmas day and we got out the next day for some snowball fighting fun! And two days later it was gone :) And that's what I like about TX snow in one day gone the next...until next year. I can handle ONE snow a year, not 5 months of it! 





Good thing this Jeep has 4WD!

Our 1st fire.
These are my favorite Christmas presents ♥♥♥ 
Grubes got Courtney an American Girl doll, she was sooooooo excited!
Meet Caroline!

Please pray for this group of Newtons. The month of December has brought far too much sickness in this house from ear infections, colds, stomach flu's, fevers, and bronchitis OH MY. We are sick and tired of being sick and tired. So hopefully the New Year will bring health and wellness to this Casa!

Happy Birthday Jesus!

Merry Christmas everyone! I hope you had a wonderful Christmas filled with family, friends, and love. Ours was for sure!! My house is so sad now with no blown up air mattresses and family sleeping in every room :( We had the Cochrans visit on Christmas eve-eve and Nana, Pappy, Uncle Rick, and Aunt Shena came to stay on Christmas eve. We loved every second of it. Enjoy the pics.

Newtons + Cochrans = One COOL gang!

Making our Happy Birthday Jesus cupcakes. This is a tradition I started with the kids awhile back. Every Christmas we make a birthday cake and remind them of the true meaning of Christmas.
