Fence

Our fence project is almost complete. Daniel has been working on the fence over his Christmas vacation time. He really has worked hard with very little help. Due to the holiday, sickness and busy schedules it has been hard to find help. He did a great job and it looks awesome. I will post the 100% complete project when it gets done.

Lucas Family Christmas

Christmas with family

We decided to go to a Mongolian restaurant for dinner for our Christmas celebration with the Barton's, Mamaw and Peter. Each person is supposed to prepare their own dish. Then we went home to let the boys open their gifts. I loved my meal that Daniel made at the Mongolian restaurant. I entertained the boys while he made our food. Maybe next time we go I will make my own.

Ice cream

On the way back from the San Marcos outlet Mall I surprised Stephen with an ice cream cone. He fell asleep a few miles down the road.

Making Chex Muddy Buddies

Mom and I always make Muddy Buddies Chex snack each year for Christmas. After the boys went to sleep I made two batches. Jamie enjoyed licking the bowl of melted Chocolate and peanut butter.



Christmas Donuts

I made Christmas donuts for Stephen one morning. Mom gave me the idea to use cookie cutters. Then we dipped them in sugar and a mixture of peanut butter and syrup. Stephen loved his donuts.





Christmas time in Gonzales

Daniel started the backyard fence this Thursday since the weather finally didn't stump his plans. The boys and I decided to go visit my Mom in Gonzales. She had schedule dental surgery on Friday so we took her to the appointment and then went to visit my 87 year old Meme. Meme loves seeing the boys and it gives us a chance to rest, eat and change diapers. Since we were here for four days we had lots of fun things to do.

Mom found some old beanie hats so we all took turns wearing them.


Friday, I took Stephen to get his first REAL haircut at Your's and Mine hair salon. This is the only picture I took before he started crying. He had to sit on my lap the rest of hair cut. The candy trick did not work.

I put Jonathan in the toy box and he did not like it.
