We were talking to Matheus just minutes before about the ice. And we were filming Charlie who was making snowballs and caught Matheus... He is fine and we all laughed.. He sat and watched it over and over, as well as us.. He now knows to be real careful on the ice..

Merry Christmas~Feliz Natal 2009

Merry Christmas~Feliz Natal to everyone. We still have a beautiful White Christmas, it's beautiful... Charlie and Alison couldn't wait to go to bed so that Santa could come and drop of the presents. Matheus was the same way.. He said that he was going to get up at 5, well that didn't happen at all.. Around 8 Charlie came running into our room, saying SANTA WAS HERE, SANTA WAS HERE... So up we were and into the living room to open presents. Matheus got a big remote control Dodge Ram Truck (he keeps saying that he wants a real one, well that is the closest he is going to get right now, lol) He also got a Ipod Docking Station for his Ipod, Ipod Gift Card, Ipod Holder for working out, and much more. Charlie got a big Lego Space Ranger set, Wii Games (Batman and Majhong) Robe and Slippers and much more. Alison got Twinkle Toes Shoes, Robe and Slippers, Barbie, Clothes, Tiger Alive and also much more. Then we gave Craig some new clothes and he has 1 more thing coming (just not here yet, dangit)...The kids and Craig surprised me with a Ipod Touch and Ipod Card. Matheus got Charlie a Knex Roller Coaster, ALison a Dress, bows and some belts, Craig a watch and myself a beautiful photo frame that says family with a photo of Matheus, Charlie and ALison in it...I LOVE IT!!! It was a very Merry Christmas.

A White Christmas Eve~

It's Christmas Eve and the snowing coming down and has been for over 4hours. There is snow on the ground but it also comes with a ton of wind, 25-40mph. It was so nice to see all the beautiful white snow..

My dad and stepmom came up here for Chrsitmas Eve.. We made Tamales, Rice, Beans, homemade Salsa, Guacamole, and tons of yummies to munch on. We exchanged presents with them. Alison was excited she got a Our Generation Horse for her American Girl Doll, a Horse Painting Set. Charlie got Wii Indidana Jones 2 Games, and a model Airplane and Matheus got something he loves Cash...

We watched "Christmas Story" a american christmas classic, that you have to watch every year.

Then they left for their long drive home in the ice and snow.

A White Christmas In Texas~

Since about 12 noon, it's been snowing. And it's windy as all get out and cold as can be. We are now at 29*F (0* C) but we are enjoying what seems like the First White Christmas since 1975 (at least according to the news)... Which was my first Christmas. Here are some photos of the kids in the snow..

Feliz Natal~

To everyone in Brazil, Feliz Natal... We wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!! I hope that your Christmas is Wonderful... We are excited for our first Christmas with Matheus. Hugs to you all...

Got to love Christmas Vacation~

It's nice to be able to not get up so early and rush to get out the door. Kids are relaxing, watching Christmas shows, helping with the baking, shopping and so forth. We have made Fudge, Cheese Olive Balls, Candy and much more. I got the Tamales for Christmas Eve, my dad and stepmom are coming up and we will head to church for Christmas Eve Services, come home, eat and open some presents. If the kids are all good then that night Santa will come and we will have Christmas Morning. Christmas with the in-laws and then Christmas with my brother and my mom's side of the family. I think the boys are bored, but when you ask them what they want to do, I get told NOTHING, whatever... Silly boys... I am ready for a long weekend with the hubby and then the following week with my best friend and her family. It will be fun shooting fireworks and welcoming in the New Year with them, haven't gotten to do that in many years...

Well I am off to get groceries for the last time for this year. Wish me luck, and I hope I don't forget anything...I made a list and checked it twice, but with my luck I will forget something, always do..
