It's the most wonderful time of the year

I hope everyone is enjoying this festive time of year. I just love the holidays...family, friends, foooooooood and gift-giving. How blessed we are to live in a country that gives us the freedom to rejoice in the birth of our Lord Jesus!

More FCC Fun

Mary and I hosted a table at our church's 2nd Annual Ladies Christmas Luncheon. We participated last year and enjoyed it so much that we decided to give it a whirl this year. We decorated a table with a festive theme of the birth of Jesus...birthday party hats and all ;)

So, it's almost been a month since I've blogged...hola! Things have been great here at the Burkhalter household. Isabella is 3 months and growing, growing, growing. Her smiles, laughter and chattiness keeps increasing as well as the amount of hours she sleeps at night! WOO-HOO! She is sleeping through the night and sleeping in her new crib in the repaired nursery! We had a wonderful Thanksgiving spent with both sides of the family, and I celebrated turning 29. Let the countdown to 30 begin...

Here are some pics of the last few weeks...in no particular order (it's too late and I'm too tired).

FCC Fun

Our church held a huge celebration Sunday for our efforts in helping others. Our small group will be taking part in what is called a Compassion Day on Saturday as we're going to the End Hunger facility in Houston. It should be a great experience...

It was a great day to fellowship and enjoy the beautiful weather. There was tons of yummy food, rides and games. Jason and I are so happy to be part of such a great church. Friendswood Community Church is all about outreach and it is so wonderful to be a part of that. We are so blessed to have found this church soon after we moved into our house four years ago!

peri and i are gearing up for the water balloon toss...
