Goodbye Christmas..see ya next year!

What an odd Texas Christmas this was. I even had family trapped out on the highways over night. I feel bad for all of the trouble the snow caused, but I sure did enjoy it. This is what it looked like by Christmas Eve evening.




And I'm thrilled to say that I had the best icicles on the whole street. I was the ONLY one with icicles. I have no idea why. One was at least 4 feeet long, but we broke it off because we wanted to play with it.






We had a lot of fun and we recieved some really awesome gifts and we are really excited and thankful for ALL of them!


One cute little funny one....My mother-in-law found me a cookie jar shaped like a purse. Cracks me up!



The ONLY Xmas function I remembered to bring my camera was at my in-laws. And you see one of those BIG polka dot gifts? It was a patio cooler for Chase and I. You know I liked that!




My brother-in-law Chance and his girl Kayla. You can never get tired of these two.





And how did the hubby do this year? Well, he almost got the stink eye when I unwrapped a ton of socks. Yes, I need socks, but not necessarily from him!






But he recovered when he came up with this big Bloomingdales box containing my precious "Bow" coat mentioned a few posts back and sunglasses and gloves. Very nice considering I won't leave my house if I don't have sunglasses!





And Fedder Claus will be retiring his outfit until next year.




And of course I couldn't wait to hit After Christmas online sales. And these snow boots I have been pining for finally went on sale.....and just in time for our ski trip which I'm hoping to plan sometime this week. I'm thinking Jan 7-wheneverish!
SNOW BOOTS! I found them on sale at Neimans, but I just saw them cheaper at Bergdorfs (I hate when that happens!)...Happy Shopping!
