Christmas was wonderful. Family, friends, and massive quanities of food always make the holiday season exceptional. This year the Hartnett / Hampton Crews headed to Houston, Texas to visit Caleb and Kathleen and Baby Corben (due Feb. 7th). We kept ourselves very busy.
We visited the Johnson Space Center. Very exciting!
We went to Kemah Boardwalk and then to Galvastan Island. We visited The Galleria and had an extraordinary New Years at John and Susan's house (Katleen's parents).
Dad, Caleb and I armed with our "Shiner Bock" beers went to the Texas Bowl at Reliant Stadium (where the Texans play). We watched a good game in incredible seats. Eight rows up from the action.
We ate Barbeque several times. We ate seafood, smoked turkey, crackers with cream cheese and raspberry chipotle sauce, and plate after plate of goodies. Oh yes it was ideal. The designated game room housed a pool table, t.v. (so of course non-stop football going on), a puzzle we worked on nightly and a special area for the girls to do art work and colorings. 
Oh and I can't forget the Pro Bass Shop. WOW!
It was a fabulous time with family and friends. Thanks to Caleb and Kathleen and Kathleen's parents, John and Susan for making our Houston expeirence wonderful.
