I'm working on catching up on the last year. I was reminded about how much I've used facebook to keep up with friends and family and how much I miss working on this blog. So I'm going to attempt to give a summary of the last year in the next few posts.
December 2010 was exciting for us. We got to spend some time in Georgetown & Killeen with my grandparents and my mom. Granny & Papa Rex surprised the kids with a new truck.
Needless to say it was a big hit! It is still a favorite toy when we visit.
December also brought us family from Japan! Nana and her two girls, Urara & Ruruka, came to visit for a week!!! We had fun hanging out with the family at our place and Sarah's house.

| Alex, Asher, Abigale, Abram, Urara & Ruruka |
 |
| We enjoyed celebrating Christmas with them! All of the kiddos after they finished decorating the tree. |
 |
| Pretty girls!! |
 |
| Decorating a gingerbread house... |
We also visited Brazos Bend National Park while they were here. The weather was very mild so we thought a some time outside. They were very surprised to see alligators in the wild. It was so fun watching their reaction and excitement.
 |
| The first stop brought much excitement...several alligators and a few turtles. |
 |
| We went to the learning center and got to touch a baby alligator! |
 |
| We also stopped at the playground so the kids could have fun. Ruruka made a new friend...a cute little ladybug. |
December was a good month! It was hard to see Nana and the girls leave but easier with technology...skype is so nice because we get to talk to/see them often.
