Our trip back to Texas was too brief to squeeze in a journey down to Teague, so we met up with Sean's parents in Dallas the day before they were headed out to Europe. We went to the Perot Museum and had lunch before exchanging gifts. The day worked out really well, and we're looking forward to finishing our Christmas time with them in Teague this spring. (You see, Santa's dog delivers presents which fill these awesome, specially knit stockings at a particular house in Teague, and this experience cannot be duplicated anywhere else. Santa's dog, thankfully, is very flexible and not bound to that whole reindeer-sleigh-Christmas-Eve schedule. Santa's dog: children's best friend.)

A couple days later we met up with Gam down in Mansfield, had lunch, and went to a park. It was great to see her-- we're so glad she was able to make the drive up!
Unbeknownst to us, Santa was making a visit to the same restaurant we had chosen as a meeting place! One of those surprises that's equal parts exciting and shocking...

Clement hadn't started solids yet. Life's so dull when you can't eat.
