I'm Rediculous, I Know

Why have a blog if you're only going to write on it once a month, you ask? I don't know. It seemed like a good way to keep people updated with pictures if nothing else, but I don't even do that well. Oh well....anyway....
Christmas at the Ross house and with various family members went well on all counts. We all got rid of our stomach bugs (mostly) just in time to be able to enjoy the holidays. Other than that, some of our blessings included lots of books, movies (mostly Veggie Tales), a great new camera lens and digital picture frame for me, the traditional tool for Casey from his dad, and some super cute clothes for Chloe. I have pictures of her in them already.
Hope everyone else's Christmas' went as well if not better. Safe travel to everyone who's now headed home after the holidays.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Happy Thanksgiving

Hello All,

I hope that everyone had a THANKFUL Thanksgiving Day. We spent the day with Casey's Dad out in Waxahachie. Casey, his Dad, his uncle, and sort of brother-in-law Aaron all went and played golf for the morning while the ladies stayed home relaxing and preparing food. The turkey took it's precious time cooking, but it all turned out well and everything was delicious.
Then, Friday we went to my sister's house in Garland. We all spent a good bit of time admiring the beautiful work that her husband (Timm) and our dad did in putting together my new niece's nursery. Then we had more turkey and played games before heading home.
We haven't gotten the big tree out yet, we'll have to wait till next weekend, but I've already got lots of stuff to wrap. That's my project for this week. Then this weekend, the Christmas parties and series of birthdays begins. We have 4 in December, 2 in January, 3 in February, 3 in March, 2 in April, and 1 in May. It's the partying time of year!
Hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season and that no one is getting blown away in this blustery wind. It almost got Chloe the other day! She had to take several steps, moving with the wind to avoid being knocked over, and I had to go get her! So be careful out there.

Love to all,
Crystal
