Catchup: December 2011

This was an interesting month for us. I got a job offer in Houston, but had to be there December 1st to start working. Darrin wasn't done in San Antonio until the week of Christmas, so we got to have a long distance marriage for 3 weeks. Ugh! 

December's highlights:
  • I started my new new job in downtown Houston
  • We bought our first house (without even seeing it in person first!!!) After a horrific closing day that did not end with us getting house keys, confusion was cleared up and I picked up the keys the next day, without my hubby.
  • Moving weekend which started with Darrin winning a new gas grill at the SA Crawford Christmas party!!! He did get to see the house on moving day, but he didn't get to stay in it yet. :(
  • Chrissy's graduation from A&M {early}!!! Congratulations Kiki, you are incredible!!!! We also got to celebrate Gram's 80th birthday!



  • Darrin officially moved to Houston! YAYYYYYYY!!!
  • Christmas in Dallas with the Bartons. Thank you Allison for hosting a wonderful week for us and making an otherwise hectic holiday a very special celebration for all of us. We all got to be there as Brandon led his first Christmas Eve service and he even let us all sing with him!
Warms my heart!! (Allison has all the great group shots!)
With our little Christmas Princess!
  • Quick stop in Hillsboro on our way to Bryan to meet Camille's littlest angel & see the whole Cole gang!!

  • Christmas in Bryan with the Lampleys. CHRISSY & JUSTIN GOT ENGAGED!!!!
Merry Christmas!!! 
The whole gang! 
The first thing she did was reach for the ring! hehe :) Congrats to the future Paynes!!!
What a year 2011 was!!!
