Santa's Favorite?

Christmas Morning

Christmas morning was a joy with Grandpa Gene-o and Aunt B. We opened gifts and feasted on the traditional blueberry french toast (that Mary always made). Some favorite gifts: I received the "little e" custom painting by one of my favorite local artists, Slim...very cool! Gene-O loved his Glenlivit 21 year and Aunt B went nuts for her Steelers clock.

Wake Up Sleepy Head

I had the pleasure of waking Aunt B Christmas morning!

Christmas Eve

The Denell Christmas Eve offered fantastic food (although I had the same serving of Neocate as usual), lots of kisses (notice the lipstick), great gifts and wonderful family moments.

Christmas Wishes

Our house wishes you and your family a very merry Christmas!

Christmas With Uncle Kevin

Crazy times with the family!

...and what a treat to have Kevin and Leisa from Florida.

Another Angel

My Grandpa Herbert Erazim Reese went to heaven today, Daddy's birthday. Rosary will be on Tuesday, December 21st at 7:00 at St. Joseph; Mass will be held at 10:00AM December 22nd with luncheon to follow at the Lincoln Country Club.

Grandpa died with his wife, children and many of his grandchildren around him. He commented the day before that he was experiencing "an aura of love".

He will be deeply missed.

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Love you daddy!

It's All In The Name...A Call to Prayer

I have been so blessed to follow in the footsteps of two giant hearts, both my precious great grandfathers.

My "Prince" became an angel almost 3 years ago (12/28). On his birthday (12/8) mommy shared stories of a courageous firefighter, father and man.

It is with great honor and sadness that my family's prayers are now offered for my Grandpa "Erazim". A great man of faith, dignity and strength currently battles with a rare form of Leukemia.

As all of you, my dear friends and family, prayed for me in my time of vulnerability, I ask you to join our family in sending your giant prayers for him each day at 5:00PM.

Sitting

Eric and I had some serious floor time today!

Pappy's Big Buck

Pappy celebrated his February retirement from the Dallas Fire Department with a December hunting trip to South Texas. He shot a "HUGE" buck, the biggest to ever leave the property!

Congrats to my Pappy!

Invader Zim

Invader Zim cartoon fans/my cousins Garrett and Will came to visit.
I certainly didn't mind sharing the spotlight with my Metta-dog!
