Well we got to Texas for Thanksgiving in Texarkana with Patrick's family. His younger brother Dale is in law school in Houston so he drove us back to Sugar Land to be with my family. We all spent one last weekend together before Patrick had to head back to California and then deploy. We went to a Christmas tree farm and cut down a mini tree for Lillie to put in my parents' house. Patrick and I got to go out to Churascos that night. We hadn't been on a date in a long time!
We ended up staying in Houston until Jan 5! The help was nice, but i really missed my house and friends and neighbors! Lillie was excited to get home too. She kept saying " this is house is so beautiful!" and then when we would walk in her or Hallie's room she would say "It's sooo pretty". Glad she likes it here:)
We had a great time in Houston with the cousins. I got to see quite a few of my good friends from High school! I was so happy to see them and catch up. Lillie had soo much fun, she really misses Nana. We did so much stuff with her. They went to build a bear, we saw her first movie (Monsters Inc), we got an Elf on the shelf this year, she went shopping with nana a lot, she fell in the pond in the back yard (haha!), played with uncle Nick a lot, dances with Grandpa, snuggled with Nana, tried fresh cow milk, had an ornanment exchange, went to a party with other Sugar Mill Elementary teacher's kids, and most importantly made and mailed Daddy some pictures.

Busy month for you! Hope Patrick is doing fine, and the 3 of you too - I know it's hard being apart! Those girls are just adorable...!
