Gullo House

 We decided to adventure to the Gullo House in Magnolia, TX this year.  Every year, the owners decorate their property with lights and beautiful Christmas decor.  Since we had never been able to make it in year's past, we grabbed our cocoa and off we went.  Thank you to the Gullo family for giving us such a great evening!

Oh Jingle...

She has been a busy little elf dressing up like gingerbread men & bringing gingerbread houses, making herself into a Hershey kiss, bringing stationary for letters to Santa, swings made of toilet paper rolls, routing for Baylor on their last FB game of the season, hiding in the tree with notes of good deeds, and making a slide from the Amazon boxes and toilet paper rolls. 

Letters to Santa

Jingle brought us stationary to write letters to Santa that shrink and turn into ornaments.  We had a blast writing down all our wishes for Santa.

Taco Truck Night in Woodtrace

It was such a great night with neighbors and friends celebrating the annual Taco truck night.  It was also a perfect time to celebrate our Jess' actual birthday with a cookie cake and laughter.  We even snuck a group picture in without all the masks for a brief moment.  Having other families to do life with is such a blessing.  Cade & Caelin, we pray you find your tribe in life and love them hard!

Santa and Cookies!

One of our favorite traditions with the Hall family is seeing Santa & decorating cookies each year!  Santa was jolly as usual and Cade asked for a PS4 game (Spiderman Miles Morales) and A Nerf Pharaoh Blaster gun.  Caelin was shy as usual, but overcame her shyness to ask for a Mini fridge and LED lights for her room.  I guess we have a remodel coming, ha!  After Santa, we went back to Gamee and Grampee's for lunch and cookie decorating.  Gamee makes the BEST cookies and then the kids get to use all kids of coloring in her icing to make their creations.  The kids crack me up with their creativity and Christmas "monsters", while Charles made a poop emoji cookie, Grampee tried his best like me (yikes) with a few Christmas trees, and then Gamee made the best looking reindeer ever.  Ha!  Jacob and Andrew also joined in with their colorful creations.  The laughter and colored icing all over the table were the indicators of success. 

Shout out to Caelin for fixing her Elf when it's eye came off...
