Thursday, Christmas Eve was a quick turn around trip before it got dark to Fort Worth. We left after Billy got off work early driving in the snow and ice for all the grandparents and one 6'6" cousin to love on Matthew:
Christmas Friday morning was a quiet time with our little family of three before my sister and her girls came over:
Then Christmas night, the Turnbow's all arrived in town from Idaho and New Mexico.
Saturday the cousins opened gifts:
Sunday we all went to church together:
After church we had lunch with the second cousins: Then Matthew and I rested while the other 12 went to the movies.
Monday was lunch at Babe's Chicken House
In the evening we went to the Gaylord Texan to see the ICE exhibit:
Shawna, Eric, Erin & Tony
Papa, Nana & Aunt Jacque
Teresa, Kyle, Mike & Sydney

Tuesday was bowling and a Dallas Stars game for the majority of the group. Matthew and I had a quiet day at home enjoying the snow. He rested and mommy played cards with Nana and Aunt Jacque.
Wednesday was a big family lunch of lasagnas that I made. Then Nana and I went shopping. I found great stuff for Matthew. In evening we all played card games.
Everyone left this morning on New Year's Eve, Thursday. Tired mommy and daddy are planning to get a nap in this afternoon so we can make it to midnight and celebrate with some of our favorite neighbors.
The whole week had lots of spoiling Matthew, lots of arms to hold, feed, play and rock him.
