Christmas at the Brooks' House
Many have asked for pictures of my hard work.....our decorations for Christmas. I actually had alot of fun shooting these today playing with light and angles (can't wait for MY camera! I'm learning so much on moms that I'll just have to relearn :( Stephanie and I are enjoying a fun day of Polar Express music, lots of playing, taking steps (we are up to 7 at a time) and just hanging out. Only two more weeks till Christmas 
break!!!! Can't wait!
Josh's favorite ornament: his StarWars One
My favorite ornament: the one I made in Kindergarten
Stephanie's Favorite Toy...Her Veggie Tales Nativity.
One of my favorite things....My Nativity Angel

Wii Fun....The Movie
Here is the promised video of Michael and Josh playing......we laughed so hard!!! I have never played a Wii but LOVED the idea of being able to get my beloved OLD SCHOOL Nintendo games on it (which we will do today). But watching these guys actually swing light sabers and stuff with this little controller was so funny (and super cool!) Wii's are so much fun! Next on my list....Endless Ocean! You scuba dive through the ocean and learn about all sorts of stuff....the images are awesome and it has cool facts and things.....it's so my thing ;) It's like Discovery Channel (since we don't have cable ;)
Josh's Bday
Josh's official bday isn't till Thursday...but this weekend was the perfect time for a bday celebration because of his drill weekend and work schedule. We had a Fiesta...with tortilla soup, chili rice, homemade salsa and guacamole along with his favorite Pie's from Bonnie and Texas Sheet Cake from my Mom. Our house was full with about 14 adults and 2 kiddos....it was so much fun!
**We missed you Memaw! Hope you feel better soon!!** Josh ate all his favorite foods then opened his gifts. Mom, Bonnie and I had been planning and were organized....Josh got a Wii and a StarWars game (he was pumped!) He and Michael worked on getting it all set up and then just about everyone took turns playing. Here is the slide show of pictures. I'm still working on editing the HILARIOUS video!!! Watching GROWN MEN play in a StarWars game...actCing like they are fighting with lightsabers is HILLAIROUS! We all laughed SO HARD!!!
Thanks again to all who came and those who sent well wishes. I think it's one of the best birthdays he's had in awhile :)
Stephie Jo fun
Here are a few pics from last week (MANY more to come!!) We had so much fun last weekend and this! I love lazy days with my Princess. Her little personality is really showing! She "talks" all the time, knows what she does and DOES NOT want....I love her little chatter and even her fits when things don't go her way. She is such a little person and a joy to be with! Being a Mommy is such a blessing....I can't believe how awesome everyday is! Enjoy my little one.....
