Christmas with the family....

Since it took me so long to post, I have no idea all the stories I wanted to tell about this Christmas. Kennedy did great visiting Santa Claus. Gracie Knussmann went with us and the two enjoyed sitting on his lap and telling Santa what they wanted. Kennedy wanted a bicycle and candy. There was a train that Kennedy liked riding around in circles. I think on Christmas day she was a little disappointed because she got a tricycle instead of a bicycle. I think the bicycle might be something coming for her 3rd birthday in April. We blew up each evening and when Kennedy wanted it, one of those blow up Christmas characters things in our front yard. Kennedy liked going outside and giving each of the characters kisses. We stuck around Central Texas for Christmas, since the dr. advised me of traveling more than 2hours from the hospital. Looking back, I'm glad we were able too, since it would be the last Christmas we would get to spend with Nanny.

The last month....

Melanie and I joined the Daughter’s of the Republic of Texas on November 14. We attended our first meeting and volunteered on that same day to be tour guides for the JB Wells home. This is a home that was built in 1885 and given to the DRT Gonzales chapter in 1999. My great-grandmother would be so proud of us .

On Dec 6, Mel and I volunteered at the house during the Gonzales Winterfest Tour of Homes. Trey watched Mel’s boys and Kennedy at our house. As you can see in the photos….looks like they all had fun.


























One weekend when we were down in Mathis, Trey built two kids size picnic tables. These are the photos of Kennedy helping paint one of them with Kilz. The next step that still needs to be done is to paint them yellow. Kennedy chose the color.
