Thanksgiving and MORE

Mama and Daddy were luck to have the whole week of Thanksgiving off from work. We took advantage of the warm weather and headed to the zoo early in the week.

Later in the week we headed north for Thanksgiving in Ruston - Wesley's fifth, Jack's second, but we came to see baby George's first!

When we returned to Houston, it was time to get ready for Christmas. On December 1, we filled up our Santa countdown with mints!

Little did we know, there was a surprise in store for us - snow in Houston! We got about an inch but that was enough for Mama and Daddy to come home early from work and join in the fun. The snow fell from about 8:00 until 3:30 in the afternoon. What a day!

This is what the house looked like at the peak - not much, but great for Houston!
