Tourists in our own town

Richard and I had a couple gift cards for different things around downtown Waco, so we decided to just make it a small getaway weekend. We started off with massages and then went to get checked in at the hotel. After a dip in the hot tub and trying the Hotel Indigo’s famous spicy margarita, we got changed and headed to Portofino’s for dinner. Then lastly we tried out the bar Z’s on the Curry. Everywhere we went was fantastic! We decided we would definitely have to become tourists hub or own town again soon!

 

NYE 2023

We said good-bye to 2023 like usual, at the fireworks store. This year was filled with a ton of sports memories and milestones…from Axtell winning District Champs for the first time in 36 years to the Rangers winning the World Series.  It’s been exciting!

 

Christmas with the kids

All the kids came over for Christmas afternoon and we were able to hang out and open gifts and share a meal. It’s very rare that we are together, just us, so it was such a treat! Christmas looks different with older kids, but it is just as fun watching them open gifts and appreciate what they get and then give thoughtful gifts in return. What a special day! 

Christmas in Mansfield

Sonia hosted Christmas Eve in Mansfield. We watched the Cowboys, ate way too much and opened gifts. We all drew a name and bought for that person so it was neat to see what each person got from their person. Winona also joined us from Abilene this year, so that was fun! 

Hollingsworth Christmas

We visited Roy and Lynette’s tonight and had a blast. Justin, Heather and the girls were all there and Roy had some new games for us, as well! The ‘roll the can’ game proved to be a bit tricky! We had a great night together eating, visiting and opening gifts! 

McCaig Christmas

This year Mamaw had a few new games for us to play…left right center and a reindeer/marshmallow game that was hilarious to watch. There was also a new family member getting to enjoy his first Christmas with us! Nathanael was fun to watch as he explored all the things. It’s always a fun time with the McCaigs! 

Rangers Christmas Party

Mom let Richard and I join her and Dad at the Texas Rangers employee Christmas party this year! We were able to take pictures with the World Series trophy and get in the field and eat some great food! We had a blast making more Rangers memories!!
