2 in 1





We're back from our trip to Houston where we celebrated 2 holidays all at once, Thanksgiving and Xmas. These pictures are from our first day there. It was warm. Nana bought cyclimen flowers that the boys planted. Ivan got something planted on his cheek too. I wonder who that came from? He usually carries a set of lips on his face when he and Nana are together. Ivan was not at all impressed with the worms Daddy found. Dominique carefully smelled all the flowers, even the ones with no scent.

The cold front came in the next day. Apparently it snowed several inches in Abilene, so we missed our first snow (it only rained in Houston). We are now home and found a little patch of snow left beside the car. The neighbor told me we have a 90% chance of snow for tonight, so maybe we will wake up to a white morning outside.

Ivan spent the 6 hours of the drive home explaining all the reasons we should stay in Houston. It seems all those kisses, hugs, special attention, good eating, getting totally spoiled and opening gifts seems to have gone to his head. His only consolation was that we were bringing home his gifts. More on that to come...

I'm glad that you had a good holiday. We got a little bit of snow this week too, but it is long gone (at least for now).
