Some late holiday photos!

I wanted to share some memories with you of our first official Christmas as the Norvells. Enjoy!!

Dave and I opened our presents together on the 23rd so we could have Christmas together just the two of us. Here he is with his new Dr. Seuss books. He wantes to build a childrens literature library.
Here I am with my new sweater. I helped him pick it out!!
This is Christmas morning at Jon and Lydia's in Fort Worth. I think I am opening a card from Dave's grandmother.

The whole Norvell family on Christmas Day!

Dave and his new Shel Silversteen books. Now he has all three poetry books for his library!


We went to the annual ICE exhibit at the Gaylord Texan hotel. Every year the put on a display of frozen ice creations and keep the gallery at 9 degrees! It was so cold, but so fun too. Here I am with a Texas Santa!
And here is Dave with a Toy solider. They also had life size natavity scene, a beautiful angel, and a play area made out of ice complete with fully functioning slides that Dave was daring enough to slide down.

And finally here is Dave and I in front of our Christmas tree. Mom lent us hers and she bought a few mini ones. A few cheap boxes of colored ball ornaments and we filled it up pretty good.
Hope yall enjoyed seeing our pics!

We had a lot of fun over Christmas. :) And I love that outfit with the black top and red skirt. Very flattering! Your house looked cute for Christmas, too!

I agree with Lydia, you are a hottie in those red heels!! :)

I enjoyed seeing your Christmas piccies and being with you guys for the celebrations.

It's so funny that you were blue on the same day as me and that you responded by cleaning house... I did the very same thing! I cleaned like a banshee one day last week and boy did it feel good!
