Christmas, whew!

Christmas went by in a FLASH! WOW!  We spent it with family and really just waiting for baby Philip to make his grand entrance! We weren't disappointed.  Philip Anthony Mejia arrived in grand style on New Year's Eve.  Great way to end 2012 and begin 2013!

Check out all the fun we had:

Sit on lap, No cry

That was Harper's mantra for about a week before we went to see Cowboy Santa at Lakeline Mall.  We had already seen Santa at Faubion Elementary the week before.  Harper did not want to sit on his lap, but we did watch as happy children sat on his lap and received a candy.  We watched for ten minutes. For the next week Harper talked about visiting Santa.  Her exact words have been "Sit on lap, No cry, Smile!"  And that's exactly what she did! So proud of my little girl!

I LOVE this picture.  It's like she is giving Matt and I the "see Mom, I CAN DO THIS!" smile. 

She even let Santa put a reindeer hat on her!

Cowboy Santa and Harper 3 years running!

When Santa asked her what she wanted for Christmas, Harper said "Cookies and Chocolate".  I think we can make that happen.  Oops! I think Santa can make that happen!

Christmas time at Sea World

We LOVE going to Sea World during the holidays. They decorate so nicely and Harper loves "Mamu" (Shamu).  We had a great time!

Shamu Santa!

This Thanksgiving week we went to Port Aransas.  It was such a nice getaway!  Take a look.

Harper loves playing the guitar with our friend Dan!

Chasing birds.  Nothing better. 

Bonfire night! Harper helped her dad dig a hole for the wood.

Toasty tootsies!

The Friday after Thanksgiving we were able to go to a hockey game.  We had a blast!
