'Tis the Season!

Don't you just LOVE December?! ...Well... let me re-phrase that... Don't you just LOVE December on days when it actually FEELS like December and you don't have to turn on your air conditioning? :) Ahhh, Texas. Fortunately, we've had a pretty "Christmassy" feeling month with a few freezes already and only a handful of days when we were glad we hadn't packed away our summer clothes.

But truly, there's nothing more exciting to me than smelling Christmas in the air, feeling Christmas in my heart and seeing Christmas in a brand-new way through the eyes of our precious Avery as she experiences a lot of it for the first time! This is such a magical season, and all because of a baby born in Bethlehem to save the souls of Man. It just doesn't get any better...

Here's a slideshow with pictures from a random shopping trip with "Gram," getting our Christmas Tree, partying over gingerbread houses with the girls in our Young Marrieds class, and Collin's office party! Enjoy!
