Grande Christmas party

For the first time in 10 years Cory and I went to my company Christmas party. We had a great time hanging out with everyone. I laughed when I started trying to decide what to wear. I couldn't find anything and ended up borrowing something.

It's great to have a chance to get all dressed up and go out on the town for a night. But actually having a wardrobe for "night life" is a whole other story. Maybe I'll be more prepared for next year. :o)

Sam Dunk

Cory got tickets to an Aggie basketball game, and Jaxson was the only taker. The two loaded up a few Friday's ago and headed to College Station.

They arrived an hour early and had a chance to be on the court during warm ups. Jaxson spent most of that time with his chin rested between two chairs. Cory said he noticed a camera man filming Jaxson at one point.

They enjoyed the whole game together with Jax taking a small cat nap during 1/2 time. Jaxson's favorite part of the whole night was the slam dunk contest. He has talked about it day after day, and even tries to act out his own "sam dunk" contests.

What a dude!!

The Great Cookie Swap

I was invited to a cookie swap this year. Since the one and only rule was that you had to make your cookies FROM SCRATCH this was a challenge for me. I mean, come on, if I actually make them in MY OVEN isn't that from scratch enough????

So I borrowed a cookie recipe from a friend at work for " No Bake" Oreo balls. Jacie and I had a great time making them. I explained how the party worked, that I would bring lot's of our Oreo balls and swap them with all the other ladies for theirs. She was so excited the next morning to see all the other cookies we had gotten.

It was one of the best times I have ever had, and can't wait till next year.

Oh Christmas Tree..

We are a week behind in getting our tree up but finally made it. Merry Christmas.
