Let it Snow!

I grew up in Iowa so I have seen my share of snow, but my kids have not. Snow in Texas is rare. For the last two years I have been incredibly lucky and so have my kids!

Here today and gone tomorrow, the best kind of snow!

Chicken Fried Steak

If you are ever near Norman, OK and are a fan of chicken fried steak. Go to Kendalls in Noble, OK. Probably the best I ever had. A close second would be Ginger Brown’s Old Tyme in the Fort Worth Area.

And Yes, I ate the whole thing!

Newest Family Member

Our newest family member was delivered by Santa Claus on Christmas Eve. His name is Dorothy, a blue Beta Fish. That’s right Dorothy. Blake named him after the pet fish of a certain red fuzzy creature on Sesame Street. I wanted to name him Chum!

Santa Claus Was Here

We are not sure who likes Santa Claus more, the kids or us. What we do know is that with kids our faith in the Christmas spirit is back.
