We had our ward Christmas breakfast and one of the activities was to dress up as people of Bethlehem and take a picture in a stable. It was just I and the kids but it was fun :) Good food, great friends, a great morning :) Merry Christmas
The month flew by faster then you can say "Football"! The month started with nice fall weather and ended in a cold front that brought snow December 1st. We ended up staying home for Thanksgiving and due to a spectacular win from the high school football team we were joined by the Angelis at the last moment. We didn't take pictures that day but Lisa and I put together a fantastic meal. We had turkey and ham, sweet potatoes, jello and veggies to just name a few favorite's. And of course it wouldn't be Thanksgiving without yummy desserts. I made a creamy pumpkin spice pie, bought a very yummy dense fudge chocolate pie and made soda cracker pie that is my favorite from childhood. Lisa made a very tart lemon pie and a blueberry pie. We had lots of fun and enjoyed each other's company and Mark of course got to watch some football.
We're the Mendoza's; Tomas, Kari, Olivia and Malaki. We are recent California transplants to the GREAT state of Texas! We miss California but we are growing to love Texas too. We hope that with this blog, we will be able to share our life in Texas with our loved ones back in California and beyond........
