Merry Christmas!!

We headed down to Houston for Christmas and spent it with family.

The cousins love hanging with each other.

My 3 beautiful kiddos. I am so blessed to be their mom!

Ever since we went to Disneyland Kansas wants everything Mickey!! :)

Trinity couldn't wait to straighten her hair!!

Yes, another ball but this one he can dribble outside on the cement!

My nephew, Cody got boxing gloves and he decided to try them out on Logan's face. :) Despite this lickin Logan kept on boxing!

Me and my gorgeous girls

Nana and Papa and their grandkids.

Mom and her girls...

Me and my big sister being goofy...

My wonderful parents...I love them so much!!

Toasting to me receiving my Masters!

Kansas and Kendall. I thought this was a sweet picture. Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and I pray that 2012 brings you even more blessings than 2011!

Trying to Catch Up...

Trying to catch up fits this long post for sure. December has been a whirlwind for me to say the least. But I will say it has been full of blessings.

We wrapped up our FANTASTIC season with a team party at the Roberts house. I loved having my girls back together again. I miss them!! As usual we shared lots of laughs.

On December 11th I completed my Masters degree and I got to celebrate by spending almost a week in San Antonio at the AVCA convention.

I was able to attend a bunch of clinics as well as watch the semis and final match of the NCAA Women's Volleyball Championships!! It was such a cool experience and I also learned a lot from the clinics.

My hotel was right on the river walk and it was decorated so pretty for Christmas.

The semis.....Illiniois upset USC.

UCLA beat Illinois to win the title!! I am thankful for the trip that gave me some time away!!

When I returned my hubby took me on a date.......to a basketball game. :) Some things will never change! :) He was also hosting a camp so we let the kids have some friends spend the night so they could attend the basketball clinic with them.

Logan and his buddy, Trey being goofy. We ordered pizza for all the kiddos after day 1 of the camp and then took them thru Prairie Lights.

Trinity and Brooklyn...

Prairie Lights is such a beautiful display of Christmas lights.

These pictures don't do it justice! I should have done a post just with my light pictures!

Kansas, Taylor and Jacobi enjoying their pizza. I remember when these cute girls were in kindergarten!

I walked in to the kitchen the next morning and found Kansas drawing up a play on Gene's board. Can you tell she is a daughter of 2 coaches? :)

Some of the campers....

Later that day (as if we hadn't spent enough time in a gym) we went to SMU to watch Lil" Cotton (London) play basketball. Gene started training him when he was Logan's age!!

He is Kansas' Godbrother also. :) It was so great to see him play! We are proud of you London!!

Cannot believe it has been a month since my last post. Hopefully now that I am done with my Masters I will have more time. Stay tuned for my Christmas post.....

Turkey Day Fun

So this Thankgiving we headed to Katy/Houston to see the family. I couldn't wait to give this little girl some smooches!! Of course when we hang out at the Street house we do lots of hanging in the garage/man cave/bar/theater room...etc.

Some of the men enjoying Stephen talking I'm sure! :) Love my brother in law!!

Our real life baby doll. :)

On our way to my mom's house (yes my parents still live in Alief) we passed my old high school, Elsik. Lots of memories there....of course most involve playing sports. But back to Thanksgiving.....

Tiffany, Derek and Jasmine came from Killeen to spend the holiday with us. The more family the better I say!! :)

The cousins played a little football while us moms.....

sat around and watched.....love my sisters! :)

Derek and Tiffany......last year Derek was spending his Thanksgiving training the Iraqi Army. Glad he could be with us this year.

Nana and Papa....

Yea so I give up trying to take pictures with him...

I'd rather take pictures with these beautiful women anyways....so there! :)

Yep..this is the best we could get. Anytime us moms mentioned pictures it was nothing but complaining!!

Nana bought the kiddos this big art project that they enjoyed.

Before we headed out we enjoyed a nice seafood dinner at a place called Orleans. It was so yummy!! Can't believe I didn't get any pictures of the wonderful food we had on Thanksgiving. As usual my mom worked very hard in the kitchen and it was delicious.

The grown up table....with Kendall. :) I always love getting together with my family. Unfortunately I had to get a little school work done while I was there but I am almost done and so excited!!

While I was working on my power point my family decided it was a good time for a study break....so we decided to get a little goofy with the photo booth on my mac. :)

Me, my sisters and crazy nephew.

My brother, Benny....can't forget him. :)

He really does love his mom.

He really doesn't want me to flex.....I would make him feel bad.

Well as usual I hope you enjoyed my random post. Maybe after I finish my Masters I will feel like writing better stories on my blog. Nah...who am I kidding. :) Hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving!!
