Holly’s 10^th Birthday Party. This year, Holly and 12 of her closest friends met at our house for pizza and a movie in the home theater. Then we took a convoy to Mosaic Madness in Waxahachie. We’ve got photos of the girls at our house and later actually creating their mosaic masterpieces. Click here for the full gallery.

Christmas Lights Photos. Our first holiday season in our new house is also the first time we’ve ever put up Christmas lights. I had visions of a Griswold-style spectacle, but I was able to restrain myself and keep the display fairly tasteful.
