Our friends visiting from Austin, the Robinson's, stopped in for a visit-such a great family!









Jordan, Amber and Camryn stopped by on their way back from Idaho. They would be back for Christmas a few weeks later!









At the beginning of December, we went and saw a living Nativity in Alpine with Kathleen and her kids. It was cold, but we had fun, and it was a great way to kick off the Christmas season!!!
