Eli in the Bluebonnets

No Fear!

Eli and I took a golf cart ride down to our neighborhood lake to throw rocks (one of his favorite activites).  We splashed in a mud puddle and when I walked us into the water to wash our crocs off, Eli decided that was so much fun!  I swear, he has no fear!  A few of our neighborhood kids have a New Year's tradition of jumping off the dock, and I think Eli will want to be a member of the Polar Bear Club as soon as he's old enough!

Not a fan of Santa this year!



But enjoyed the Christmas lights in our neighborhood!  We're so thankful for people that go to all the effort for other people's enjoyment!

We had a wonderful time thanks to all our wonderful Snyder-kin!  They always go out of their way to make our trip fun and special!  Lots of memories are always made!  For instance:  the inversion table was like a jungle gym for the Hood boys, "I'm the closest one to black in this family!", playing 31, getting to see Gramma's new carport...that towers over the old neighborhood, Mammaw sliding Eli down by himself...good thing there was sand, Kliff Kingsbury's "orientation", Eli pushing Gramma's walker and as always, Uncle Hippo's crazy stories!  (I had to include them since my memory is nonexistent these days!)
