Riley Family Christmas

The day after Christmas we headed to North Houston to spend Christmas with my family! We have a very big family and my parents are always so generous, not only to the kids, but to the adults as well! AND every year since Trenton arrived Nana and Paw Paw trump Santa! I guess because we tell them to buy the expensive stuff so Santa doesn’t have to! Gene ended up with a new PS3 game, gift cards and a really cool jalapeño popper for the grill. I got a digital frame, huge frying pan, bath and body works, home decor and gift cards!! Trenton went home with EVERYTHING. I mean all the kids did! T got an Imaginarium Spiral train, art easel, hot wheels, gift cards…….need I say more! We are truly blessed to have such a great family on both sides. We wouldn’t have it any other way!

All dressed and ready to go! Thank you Grandma & Grandpa Flores for my new shirt!DSC05728

We had so much fun and I am happy to report I cleaned ALL day today, organized the new toys, got Trenton to sleep by 7 and am now relaxing! I am grateful for family and Christmas, but so pleased it has passed! I am ready for a new year with new outlook on life and hopefully a smaller waistline!
