Christmas Eve and Day

After Steven, Heidi, and the kids left we had some time to rest before another big meal, church, and putting out the presents.  We were all tired but I don't know if I've ever seen Mack more exhausted than he was after playing with the kids!  Hope you enjoy these last few Christmas pictures!

Nap time

Photo shoot with a very sleepy puppy

He didn't even want to lift his head but we bribed him

Mom and Dad after church

3 generations

We told dad that he could only take pictures from the waist up but he thought our bottom halves were too funny.

Santa came!

Mack opening his new raccoon...so excited!!

Oma gave me a Christmas pancake pan

On Christmas Eve Steven, Heidi, and the kids came over for lunch and presents.  We took tons of pictures so here you go...

Tyree Christmas

After helping the Girod's move we headed to the Tyree household and had Christmas with that extended family. It was so great to spend the evening there and catch up.

Chris, my long lost brother

Larry may be the patriarch of this family but Marsha and I are really the ones in charge

Supposed to be funny faces but they both just look weird

Vince has an obsession with straight pictures 

Girod's New Place

On Thursday we helped the Girod family move into their new place in Richmond, outside of Houston.  We are so sad that they won't be in Austin with us anymore but thankful we could be there to help them and have some time to say goodbyes.  Sadly I somehow missed taking any pictures of sweet Max while he was there in his Christmas pjs.  Hope you enjoy the pictures of their adorable new place!

The Girod's new kitchen/living room

Bethany, her dad, and Cody trying to figure out where to set up Max's crib

Super cute bathroom

The guys hard at work

The only picture I got of the main house...gorgeous plantation built in the 1800's

There were kittens (I was in heaven)!  Max even got to pet this one later in the evening.  He loved grabbing her ears and patting her on the back.

I will miss this lady like crazy!

Just before the tears set in...good thing they'll be in Austin often and thank goodness for cell phones

First Hensley Christmas

Our first Christmas with the Hensley side of the family was small scale.  Tuesday night we had dinner with my parents, Reid, and Dawn.  After that we opened presents with Dawn before she had to head home.  Here's a few pictures...

Just beginning the fun of opening presents/shredding paper
