Recap of the past month of what has been going on with us!
2. Kris and I went to a Dallas Cowboys game December 18th. We arrived Saturday night and left on Tuesday. We thought it would be cheaper to just take a Taxi around, well its not. They always got lost and didn't know where they were going and didn't speak good English. Thank goodness for the GPS we have on our phone so we could tell them how to get to most of the places we wanted to visit. I was in awe of the stadium. I have heard mention it takes at least a thousand people to help run the stadium. And the best part of the 
whole thing was they sold DR. PEPPER. Most stadiums or games you go to they sell coke. So I was a very happy camper. Our seats weren't bad but not the best, however they have a huge TV so I pretty much watched that, and this one guy at the bottom of our section doing some kind of dance every time the Redskins scored. I was more interested in watching the people in the stadium then watching the game. Monday we went to Dallas and looked around, then took my sister in law and her friend to the airport. Then headed to the Stock Yards. It is a place that used to be a stock yard and they have turned it into a shopping place with place to dine. They still have rodeos held there too. Tuesday we couldn't do much because of the time we had to be at the airport so we took our time in the morning and then waited at the airport. Thanks to Aunt Cami and Uncle Cole for taking care of Broc for us. He had a great time with both of you guys.
1. For the past two years my brothers mother in law has invited us over to decorate Ginger Bread houses. She spends tons of time baking these and making the frosting stuff as well. We all bring over as much candy as we can and go to town making our beautiful houses.

Hopefully one of these days all my siblings will be able to be together for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. This 
year we missed two families, Tara and her family and Erik and his family. Tara still in New Mexico so it is hard for her to be here, and Erik, it was the in laws turn to have them. But we had a full house thanks to Kristin and her family. They make up the bulk of the crowd that night. Again as tradition has it we ate Mexican food (thanks to the Kendricks for the yummy salsa, it was perfect for our meal) and opened PJ's. We also played Taboo, that was pretty fun! I am the best at the game, because I am a fast thinker!!
After they all left Broc spread out some magic dust for the reindeer so they could find our house. It sparkled in the night making it easy to find our house from the sky. It is a good thing he put that out because we forgot to leave cookies and milk out for Santa. But since Broc was a good boy this year I wasn't too concerned he would
be upset that we forgot.

4. Happy Birthday Kris, Merry Christmas
Well my hubby hit the big 34. Of course he didn't care but we sure did. I am so proud of him and all he has accomplished and for being the best Dad. Happy Birthday! (ps the Cowboys game was his bday present)

Christmas morning Broc woke up around 8 and came into our room like he always does, we asked him if Santa came and he ran out and looked and came back all disappointed
Broc-"No he didn't come"
Mom-"Are you sure? Go look again and this time look at the tags and look for Santa's name on the tag"
Broc"He did mom come out and look"
He had a great Christmas and having him around makes Christmas so much better!
After we had a yummy breakfast we went to Kris's parents and had some lunch and opened presents with all the rest of the grand kids. Craziness as usual but so much fun. After that we went to my parents house and did the same thing. Our parents sure do spoil our kids, and they love it.

On our way home Kris says what is for dinner? Um if you wanted dinner maybe we should have stayed at one of our parents house because I didn't make anything! Once we got home we called three different pizza places to see if they were open. I am glad they were closed so they could enjoy the holiday with their families, but come on not a single pizza place was open. So we busted out the Pillsbury and made our own crappy pizza. Yeah it wasn't very good. But oh well. Next year we will have to at least stay long enough at one of our parents houses to eat some yummy dinner.
Another wonderful year has passed and I am so grateful that we have all been healthy and blessed. We have had our fair share of struggles but recognize the blessings we have in our life. I hope everyone had a great 2010 and hope 2011 is even better

Great job Tracy. Even though I talk to you often and know most everything that going on with you, it's still fun to read about it on your blog and to see the pictures.
