Merry Christmas

Our Christmas started last Friday! Marcus' parents came to Houston and we celebrated Christmas with them over the weekend. We had such a great time and enjoyed their company. Then on Christmas Eve we drove to Austin to be with my family on Christmas Day. We had a wonderful time in Austin and it was great to see all the family. Christmas is our most favorite time of the year!! Here are a few pics of Mason's second Christmas.

Visiting Santa at La Centerra...The more we visited Santa the less Mason was scared of him...I was pointing to his hat....Mason LOVES HATS!!
My TWO handsome men before church!

Sunday, December 23rd: Christmas with the Schultz

We went to this shopping center in Katy called La Centerra over the weekend. To get a few last minute gifts :) They had many festive events going on througout the week and on Saturday night they had "SINGING SANTAS" I thought this would be fun for Mason....singing Santas.....but when we went to hear them sing...It was 1 Santa and he and his band weren't even singing Chrismtas Carols when we arrived they were singing "IF YOU LIKE PINA COLADAS.....HO HO HO.....GETTING CAUGHT IN THE RAIN....HO HO HO" Yes the 1 singing santa was only singing the HO HO HO part!

Opening gifts on Sunday afternoon!!
