Christmas in Texas

This year we spent Christmas with my parents in Texas.

My mom and I did a little last minute shopping on Saturday and we went out for Mexican food that night - PA doesn't have quite as many Mexican restaurants as Texas.

Sunday night, Tom and I went out with Christina (my cousin) and Aaron (her husband). We did dinner and went to the movies. We got to see Jack Reacher - it was okay. We had hoped to see Argo, but that wasn't showing at the theater. Oh well!

Monday, we kept up the family tradition of opening our gifts. :) Kimmie, Adam and Kylee came over early afternoon for the festivities. My parents got us way to much. We seriously had to have them ship a lot of it to us - haha.

Grace's pile was bigger than she was

Tommy and his presents

Kylee loved the horse we got her

 Grace got cowboys boots from mommy and daddy so she can be like Tommy

I wonder why Adam is smirking (he probably snooped earlier -ha)

Tommy entertaining everyone with his new guitar

I love his surprised look

Kimmie showing off some of her presents

My dad was excited about his Moose Mugs

"Momma" got some new clothes - haha

That night, we had a family get together at the house and then went to 8:30 midnight mass. :)

Tuesday, we went over to my Aunt Patty's house for lunch/dinner and then did a Chinese Christmas. It was our first time to do it with the family and I think it was a big hit. Luckily, Tom and I both ended up with gift cards and were able to take them back with us.

It ended up snowing A LOT on Christmas day and by the time we got back to my parents house, there was quite a bit of snow on the ground AND the electricity was out. It came on for about 30 minutes, but went back out the rest of the night (and was still out when we left the next morning. The good thing was that my  computer had enough juice for us to watch Christmas Vacation.
