Floras house

Today we celebrated Christmas with Flora, Jorge's boss. She is from Armenia & they celebrate Christmas in Jan according to the Julian calendar. Her house is decorated so beautifully, we took a few pics around the house w/ the little stell bell.

Carrots, who knew?

Stella is a discriminating eater & so far we hadn't found anything that she really loved until today. TGFC- thank goodness for carrots

Birthday dinner w/ mom

This is a picture from my Ipod and I can't figure out how to change the pic to be horizontal, sorry.

More Dallas Christmas Fun

Christmas morning, I might be a little too excited to open  "stella's" present.

Joshua and Matias with Stella, I think they won the prize for the cutest pj's. Jorge's family started a new tradition this year to stay in your pj's on Christmas all day, it was fun change.

Our little cast of characters for the nativity, all the paper on the wall behind them was the backdrop for the set. 

 

 

It melted my heart :)

My main man! Christmas Eve night, probably around 1 or 2am.

That little face and those big bright eyes, I still can't believe she's mine.

Stella and Matias, her cousins were so sweet to her and she loved every minute of it. I think she is a little bored now without all that action ;).

Christmas Eve

Stella on her first plane ride, she did so well.

Meeting her great aunt and cousins for the first time. She loved it!

So last night I started out overly ambitious and I wanted to post all the pics from our trip but as you probably noticed I only got two posted. One of my new years resolutions is to be in bed by 10pm and so after posting only two I had to go to bed ;). So tonight I am in the same predicament... I'm going to post what I can and you will get our vacation in installments :)

CHristmas/ New Years

It's been way to long since I have posted. I had intended to throughout my trip to Texas but with visiting family and a missing power cord it didn't happen. Here are a couple of pics from the day before Christmas eve, we celebrated with my family in Idaho.
