Christmas

We headed to San Antonio the weekend before Christmas to celebrate with my family.  

Audrey spent a lot of time looking at herself in the mirror.

My name was drawn for the "mystery gift".  I wasn't sure what was in the box, so Coy opened it.

 It wasn't bad at all.  The Santa cookie jar was kinda cute....and the cookies inside were good too :)

We spent Christmas day with Coy's family.  We were hoping for a white Christmas, but only got a few flurries.

Thanksgiving

We spent Thanksgiving with Coy's family since I had to work a few hours that morning.  I never thought that I would have a job where I had to work on holidays, but I'm thankful to have a part-time job while I'm going to school.  

We made a trip down to Beaumont for the weekend for Audrey's baptism.  She's grown so much since the last time I saw her and Uncle Coy finally got to meet her.

Audrey Anne

I spent the beginning of the week in Houston meeting my new niece, Audrey.  She was born on September 17.  She is perfect!

Where's the Beef?

Before.......

After.......

We sent a calf to the butcher a few weeks ago.  I picked up 4 boxes of meat today.  This is just half of the calf since we split the meat with somebody else.  Lots of ground beef, steaks, and roasts.

 I don't think I'll be cooking this.....

Wedding and Baptism

We made a trip down to Beaumont for my cousin Candice's wedding.

Since all of the family was in town, Sarah and Nelson also baptized their newest addition, Witten, on Sunday.  Here's everyone who has worn the same baptismal gown.  Pretty cool to continue the tradition!

Future Farmers

Last weekend, these little cuties came to visit.  They loved helping Uncle Bubba work on the pecan sprayer and ride on the tractor.

Farm Auction

On Saturday, I rode with Coy to the farm auction in Comanche.  I didn't know what half of the stuff was.  The auctioneer rode in the back of the truck, so he could move to each piece of equipment.

This is what Coy had his eye on.....a pecan sprayer.  Even though we could only go 50 mph on the way home, we still made it home before dark.
