Getting in the Christmas Spirit!

Well it is 1 1/2 days until Christmas break, but Jason and I have been working on getting in the Christmas spirit for awhile now. The weekend before last we enjoyed heading to Lubbock for the 50th Anniversary of Carol of Lights. This is a really special tradition at Tech where they have caroling and light up the campus. We hadn't been in 2 years, so we were really excited about going back to it!

The extra special part was our family went with us! My parents, Mandy, my aunt & uncle, and cousins all went! My mom had not been to Carol of Lights since she was in college, and it was my dad's first time! They also brought our "niece" Kaytlyn...It was her first trip to Lubbock! We are working real hard to make her into a Red Raider. They have a stuffed Raider Red that plays the fight song, and we always all do Guns Up when it plays. Kayty and Jackson have both learned Guns Up, and when she saw Raider Red at Carol of Lights she tried to put her GUns Up in her little mittens, and started to sing! LOL! She will be a Red Raider yet! While we were there we went out to the Vintage Township addition Christmas Display. It was beautiful and so much fun!

Last weekend we had fun going to Jason's Christmas party for work. It was at Austin Ranch in Grapevine. His company put everyone up for the night in the DFW Lakes Hilton, always nice!
