Christmas






So quickly after Thanksgiving, we were on our way to Texas for Christmas vacation. Josh, Austin, and I traveled down to Mexia, Texas. It was Austin's first plane ride, and I was more than a little nervous. Our little guy was a champ and played or slept the entire trip down and back. He also charmed every flight attendant and passenger on the planes. I was very proud of our little guy.

Mama B was very excited to see Austin. He had changed a lot since the last time she saw him at two weeks old! There was a lot of playing and traveling to see relatives and friends. Christmas morning was a lot of fun as Austin got to practice his present opening skills again. He also got to meet some cousins and a great aunt and uncle!

Thanksgiving





It's been a long while since I have posted. Being a teacher, the holidays become quite the spectacle. Between Thanksgiving feasts and holiday programs, by the time the new year comes I am over any holidays. It's a good thing we have a month and a half until Valentine's Day!

Austin had a wonderful holiday season. It started with Thanksgiving where his Gram and Aunt Lesley came to Alaska to visit. We had Christmas with Austin where he got to open presents for the first time. It was lots of fun. He got lots of toys, clothes, and books. Josh and I were very grateful for Grams who watched Austin for a Sunday afternoon while we went to the movies. Thanks Grams! :)
