Luke 2: 13-14 (KJV)
Well it was an interesting Christmas to say the least. Our family (my mom's side) had been planning for a while that we would all go to Dallas for this Christmas. We hadn't celebrated Christmas in Dallas maybe ever, but now that my brother lives there we thought it would be really fun place to spend the holiday. Well then Big Ern (my granddad) was diagnosed with cancer and we thought the trip was off. However, our spirits were lifted when the radiation oncologist said he could travel. So Brandon, Teensy and I drove to Dallas on the 23rd. We stayed with my brother and sister-in-law's new house and were having a great time.
Well we got up on the 24th to find out that not only was raining snow in Dallas it was a blizzard in Lubbock where my mom and grandparents were trying to catch a flight out of. Well after spending 4 hours in an airport with two elderly folks and no hope in sight, my mom called to say they would not make it to Dallas for Christmas. I was pretty upset that I wouldn't be spending Christmas with either of my parents, but at least I still was with family.
Brandon, my brother, my sister-in-law, my uncle Jay and aunt Carla had Texas Chili and Tamales on Christmas Eve and then went over to my uncle's house Christmas Day for food, fellowship and a some Disco Dancing. We had a great time!!!

Of Course my brother and husband had to make a trip to Bass Pro Shop (they didn't buy anything but we were there for two hours)
The dogs Teensy and Pecos (worn out) Pecos thought my arm was a chew toy more than once during our stay
We came back and made a snow man in our back yard. Good Times
