Kate's favorite thing...her baby named Lucy.
It's time to start opening presents from Kekie and Pops!
Zachary, Graham, and Kate having fun watching the Christmas Parade in Blanco.
Foster enoyed it too and what is special is that he is named after my grandfather, Foster Carroll who was born in this house over 100 years ago and lived there his whole life. I always said I would love to name my son Foster! My dad's middle name is Foster as well.
This pic was taken in the barn where my parents had a Smith cousin Christmas. In the background behind my dad were pictures hanging from when my dad and his cousins were children enjoying Christmas around the very same fireplace that we enjoy today. In addition, there are several framed and enlarged letters to Santa written there by some of the cousins who attended....one of which is now in her late 70's.
Kate loves playing with cousin Zachary!
This is the wonderful litte home where my parents now reside, where my grandfather was born and raised with ten siblings, and where my father was raised with four siblings. My parents are making this into a bed and breakfast. It is very cozy and cute with lots of history. They have done a lot of work so if you ever visit the Texas Hill Country, look them up. They would love to have you! You will have a great time only if you are ready for a beautiful country setting in the hills where the simple things in life are enjoyed! Kate loves to go visit and as you can see, she and Kekie are making cookies together. Her favorite part of course is licking the beaters! We had a great time with my brother and his family.
