Christmas in Houston

So back when Rob and I found out we were pregnant, we decided we wanted to stay home for Christmas. We invited anyone who wanted to join us at our house, and my mom, sister Claire, and sister Catherine were able to make it to Houston a few days before Christmas to spend some time with us. I absolutely loved having them here with us, and I think the babies really enjoyed their visit as well. We (well, mainly my mom) cooked a yummy Christmas lunch. My Aunt Colette, Uncle Bill, Grand Aunt Jo, and Dad were able to join us for the meal as well so our house was full of people! After eating, we all gathered in the living room and opened presents. It was a lot of fun having everyone at our house for a change. Mom, Claire, and Catherine left the next morning to drive back to Lubbock. We were sad to see them go, but can't wait to have them come visit again! Here are a few pictures from their visit and celebrating Christmas!
