Tour de Texas!

Ford and I went home to Texas for a week to visit my family and have an early Christmas. It was a whirlwind, but it was so much fun! As I say often, I didn't take enough pictures, but we got a few good ones!

Katy got to play hookie from School on Friday, so we took Ford to the park!



He loves his Aunt Val!




We took Ford to The Shed for lunch and he was in heaven! They sell all kinds of tractors, and he just ran around looking at all of them and making tractor noises!



I took pictures of Katy, Jake and Ford while I was home. We found this neat old loading dock in Aledo that made for a great background! This was my sister's Christmas card this year!


I love how much these three love each other! Katy and Jake were like my first babies, and now they I get to share my baby with them!






While we were in Texas it was crazy warm for December! We went to my Aunt and Uncle"s beautiful new house, and Ford took a swim in their pool (it was warm outside, but the pool was heated!).


This makes me smile!

He's shivering a little here!

Christmas Party at the Olson's

Erik and I had a Wine and Cheese Christmas party this year and it was so much fun!!! I didn't take nearly enough pictures (I should have given that job to someone), but we got a few good ones to remember the night! We had a house full of people, and somehow Ford slept through it all!


Love this group of girls!
 Paul and his fiancĂ© Stephanie! We love her!
 The party always ends up in the kitchen!
 Not sure who took this one, but even though it's blurry it captured the fun!
 All the Caters!

Carmel Photo Shoot

We are so lucky that our sweet friend Lance took these amazing pictures for us! They are truly priceless and I can't help but smile when I look at them. We are truly so blessed, so happy and so in love with our little boy, and these pictures capture all of those emotions. We have know Lance since he was a middle schooler, and he was actually Erik's first Young Life kid. He came to our wedding, and now he's all grown up and a very talented photographer!



I love this one so much because it is perfectly Ford, so happy and on the go!!!

Wipeout! I love that even though I am blurred, you can tell I'm worried (:






I can never get enough of these open mouth kisses!




Oh Mama!!!
