Granny's in Lubbock




Bailey, Teagen and I went Sunday after Sunday School.

Harts




The Harts came to Happy. We had a great day!! Chinese Christmas and wishes for a new baby.

Christmas Day--Jesus's Birthday Celebration











The kids woke up at 7 oclock. They opened presents after looking at what Santa brought. We had breakfast sort of and then played computer games, Leapster, DS games, carpet skated, and then looked to see what Jerry Sims brought. They played and played with the truck and pickup and trailer all morning. Bailey worked on magic tricks--came up with about 12. Bailey did a magic show and the boys favorite was pulling Rambo (the rabbit) out of the hat. She had them going that he really disappeared. She prepared a show and did it for Mom, Dad, Grandaddy and Louese. We had traditional cinnamon rolls, sausage balls, egg casserole, etc. Clint didn't get to go with us. We missed him. Each person at Mom's opened one gift since we already did at Thanksgiving.

Christmas Eve







We had a great day of preparation and then went to the Christmas Eve service at church. At Jody and Lisa's we had great soup and the fixings. We had a mass opening of gifts and then the big boys played with my kids as much as they could stand. We tried to get home so Santa could come. Clint went right to bed not feeling well at all.

School Program







Teagen sang three songs VERY WELL. And then Bailey played the part of Dancer in "Broadway Santa". Bailey also played a solo in the Christmas concert.

Church program











Kyton got to ring an orange bell--his favorite color. Teagen rang a bell and played Jesus in their part of the program. He read "J" and "K" for the alphabet of Christmas. Kyton could tell you the "K" part, "K is for kindness shown without reason." He even said it Christmas morning. Bailey was Mary in their part of the program. It was a sweet program for a packed church... and then Santa came.

Gingerbread house




The kids had a great time putting it together one night.
