Merry Chris-Chris!

That is what Ace says.

We went with some of mom's friends to a nursing home to hand out blankets for Christmas and Ace went up to every single resident and wished them a Merry Chris-Chris and handed them a blanket. He even hugged a few of the ladies. He did so well and made me so proud. And how all those little ladies fawned over Charlie. I feel truly blessed and am so glad that we were able to bring a little joy. The nurses said there hadn't been children there for months and that none ever visited everyone like that.

Even though our Christmas is a little tight this year, I realize how much we have and am really enjoying the season.

So--Merry Chris-Chris Everyone!

Who needs GPS . . .

when you have ACE!

This boy could tell you how to get anywhere he's been at least once. The other day we were driving home and got to an intersection that we had been through once during a daytime drive from the opposite direction. It was after dark and he still knew which way to turn to go home, and he was very insistent when we went through the intersection that we were going the wrong way. However, when we explained we had to stop at his beloved Wal-Mart, he calmed down.

My child believes that all the world's problems could be solved by a McDonald's chocolate shake, a couple french fries and a stroll through Wal-Mart. Who needs DisneyWorld---

Snow!

So last week it actually snowed in Houston. Big, soft, fluffy snowflakes fell throughout the day. And although there wasn't quite enough sticking around to build a snowball or a snow marble for that matter, it was wonderful and really put me in the mood for Christmas.
Ace has been watching Frosty the Snowman and when I told him it was snowing he was really excited to go outside, but not for the snow. All he wanted was the magic hat. LOL.

We are getting closer and closer to moving into the new house. I'm not sure if we will move before or after Christmas. I'll definitely post pics of the boys new rooms once we get settled.
