Merry Christmas

This year, Mat and I spent Christmas day in Kingwood with the Kelsos. We had a lot of fun playing games, including a lot of Wii, eating lots of good food and catching up. Mat and I also enjoyed spending time with our niece, Kadence. She is at a really fun age right now, and we enjoyed our time playing with her. She even took her first steps while we were there! What a great Christmas present that was for the family.

One of the presents Mat and I got was a card of Wii points. I didn't know anything about them, but Marilee showed us how to download old school Nintendo games onto our Wii! We spent a lot of time playing Super Mario Brothers 3 and Super Mario World. It has been tons of fun and has brought back lots of childhood memories for both of us.

Later this week, Mat and I are headed out of town again for New Year's and Christmas with my family. Even though our time off has been busy, we are loving all of the time we get to spend with our families.

Sounds like your Christmas was a lot similar to ours... Houston area, Wii, eating too much, family. I am glad you guys are enjoying your break.

I saw Tracee at church Sunday in Katy and she said she had lunch with you. I still can't get over what a small world it is.

Jeff and I decided to get a Wii too. They are all sold out of coarse so it'll be awhile. I have a feeling there will be less 42 playing between the us and more Wii! Miss you guys!

Cute new background!
