So every other year my cousin Karey and his family come to TX for Christmas. It was perfect because it falls on the same Christmas schedule that I have Lilly. It was sooooo amazing to see everyone and I just can't say enough good things about my family. Maybe I am a little biased, but I seriously have the best family. If you are lucky enough to be someone who gets to join it, good for you, haha!! We had a good old fashioned family Christmas, complete with no electricity until dinner time, amazing gag gifts, and all our babies were running around like crazy. Seems like yesterday I was holding my cousin's twins and now they are teaching Lilly the ropes. Gosh, we are blessed! Be prepared for lots of pics!
The girls! Well minus little Coco, who I couldn't stop from snapping pics of her precious little self. All four of the girls were in D&B originals, big smile on my face!
Coco, Emma, and beautiful mommy Michelle. Couldn't be happier for J and Michelle. You can't tell in this pic but there is no electricity. The entire neighborhood was shut off on Christmas day so all the cooks were freaking out. Luckily, my aunt had great neighbors with empty ovens and the electricity came on an hour earlier than expected!
18 pound prime rib roast people. Delicious is an understatement.
Me and whicky.
Rachael, Nick, and me.
With my cousin Karey. I hadn't seen him since his wedding in Vegas two years ago. What a GODSEND he has been this past year. I may have made the most frantic calls to him. He has heard me cry, scream, and finally laugh.
Oh Colette. You are so darm cute. My Aunt Krissy said finally "MOLLY, stop hogging the baby!!" I can't help it. I love me a sweet baby love and she just makes my heart burst in happiness and smile from ear to ear.
I don't know how to take red eye out anymore apparently :(
Happy baby girl.
She definitely looks like her daddy and it is so precious to see Jason adoring this little tiny princess. What a blessing she is!
Brayden took this of us. Love her just a little.
Happy cousins destroying Aunt Karen's bedroom with new toys!
GAG GIFT TIME!!! Not for the faint hearted.....
Mom got Gadue's weird poster back. Great. Scariest thing ever.
We're kind of obsessed.
Dad gave this.......two girls dressed as Nacho Libre people I guess, plus a bottle of Sol. They just got back from Mexico so he had to do something that he picked up there.
Leg lamp from Nick.
Inspirational pic from Emma.
Can't go without a shake weight at a gag gift party these days. Those things are not easy to do! HA!
This pic of this apron is all you will see......
So my aunt Karen gave a "Gadue in a box". It was complete with her old moo moo, slippers, newspaper, her morning pills, her container she put her dentures in, and stale coffee. It was hysterical and I couldn't stop laughing.
Phew!!! Whirlwind of a Christmas and it wasn't even over yet! We left Houston on the 27th, my cousin Karey and his family came the 28th, my bestic came the 29th, and left Jan 1......woah. I'm done to say the least! What a wonderful holiday it was surrounded by all the people I love most. 2011 is going to be a very, very good year. :)
