Family night at Taste of Texas

We had our annual family dinner at Taste of Texas with my family on December 22nd. This is another one of my favorite traditions that we do. Here are a few pictures from the night.

Cade and Zach playing before dinner. I made sure to pack a bag of snacks, toys and books. I knew there was no way Cade would sit patiently without something to occupy him.

Apparently, it is really funny to give each other high fives!

Tosha and Madison

In years past we have loaded up after dinner and headed to Memorial City mall. All the kids and grand kids would get a picture with Santa. Since our family has expanded and some family members were a bit embarrassed to still be sitting on Santa's lap, we have stopped the Santa picture. We do, however, still head over to Memorial City mall to take pictures by the fire place.

Mom and Dad with all their grand kids. Zach was done for the night....Cade was checking him out.....Madison just keeps smiling and it looks like Reid is trying to meditate or something!
