A Hill Country Christmas

A Few Shots of Trip in his winter hat in front of the Christmas tree.

Trip all bundled up before we headed out to the parade.

Some shots of the Main Square in "downtown" Boerne. Our little Main Street was all lit up for the holidays as well, but I couldn't get a good shot. Each weekend in December, Boerne has "Dickens On Main" (http://www.dickensonmain.com/) .... There are lots of fun activities including a Christmas parade the first weekend in December, carriage rides, Christmas music at the Main Square, and gingerbread house decorating. At the parade there is also great food ... turkey legs, sausage on a stick, funnel cake, hot apple cider and cocoa, and of course it wouldn't be Texas without some good ole Tex Mex during the holidays! Last year I was about 7 months pregnant and we went to the parade with our good friends Whitney and Max Jodry. We missed having them this year, but were able to spend time with some of J's good childhood friends, Park and Will (pictured below).

The boys spent the weekend grilling steak, fish and shrimp, making chili and brewing some beer. The outcome of the home brew is still to be determined. Currently it is fermenting in Trip's closet :)
