Christmas in Jonesboro

We made a surprise visit to Jonesboro at the very last minute! Travis got off work early Christmas Eve, came home, we packed up the car, and headed to Arkansas. We arrived around 6pm...We got the boys out of the car and went to the front door knocking and ringing the doorbell. Rex was yelling, "We're here! Merry Christmas!" It was a great surprise for everyone!

Santa Clause!!!

We had such a great holiday season! Our friends Bella and Lola invited Santa Clause to come to their house. Santa read us stories and had milk and cookies with us afterwards. The boys had a great time. Rex really warmed up to Santa and by the end of the night he and Santa were playing ball! What a great memory for our family!

..uh, are we supposed to be happy about this Rex?


Yes! It's Santa!
