Christmas in Houston, MO
This past weekend we travelled to Houston, MO to celebrate Christmas with my cousins and grandparents. We had a lot of fun and there was alot of laughs. 
This year we had a white elephant gift exchange. It was hilarious. My Aunt Nancy tricked Jeremy into picking her present only to find that it was the ugliest pair of lime green heels with a flower on top.
I got a brick......which Jeremy's going to make into a Bricandle. (a brick-candle). He's working on the patent now. :)
My great grandma got a stocking cap and had to model it for everyone. She's styling now.
Me and my pops.
Mom, Ted and me.
Grandpa Herndon playing us a song he wrote for his high school reunion. It was very good!

Ice Skating and the Opera Singing Santa
Yesterday we had a great time! Some of our good friends, the Sherinski's and Wilson's came to Forest Park with us to go ice skating and then to dinner at Bevo Mill. We had a lot of fun. Jeremy was by far the best skater, but no one got hurt.......well, I think we are all hurting today, but nobody broke any bones so I call that a good trip! :) 
We got to ride in the manvan and watch mommy and me with Lauren. Travis made a good call bringing the stroller and baby, Lauren was just running up and down the sidewalk pushing her baby. After we were worn out we went to eat at Bevo Mill, great place by the way!
We got lucky because Santa was visiting that night...and not only did he have candy, he was also an opera singer. Lauren loved him instantly and just followed him around the restaurant clapping as fast as she could when he was done singing Christmas songs. It was a great night with great friends!

Holidays
The holidays are so busy, we have stuff planned every weekend until the new year. This weekend, Jeremy is playing in the band Saturday and Sunday. Heath and Katie's baby girl Myla turns one so we are celebrating with her Saturday afternoon and our friend Heather turns 24 on Sunday, but we are celebrating Saturday night with a night on the town. Then on Sunday we're hoping to go ice skating in Forest Park and eat dinner with some friends at Bevo Mill.
Next weekend we head to Houston again to celebrate Christmas.....which reminds me, I need to find a couple good white elephant gifts. :)
After that we are going to Florida to celebrate Christmas with the Gaithers, but we aren't sure on all the dates yet. Once we get back, we're headed to Columbia for Christmas with my family then back to STL for a New Year's party at the Sherinski's! Should be lots of fun and who knows when I'll have time to post more pictures on here. I'll try to keep up to date as best I can. Love you all and can't wait to see ya (except you Fancy, I'm sad we won't be spending new year's together. we will have to get together after your cruise!)
