We also went to Matt's birthday party. Matt was one of the students I spent half my day with last year, while doing inclusion in Debbie's class. Matt means the world to me, and Jordan too! We had a good time and I can't wait to go see him over the break! 
This weekend we drove to Houston to watch the WYLIE PIRATES play in the State Championship! Yep, we packed up at 7:45 and headed for a long drive to Houston. I was in the front with Jeff, Larry and Carla (inlaws) were in the middle seat and Jo was in the very back. Jeff almost ruined my big suprise for him the night before! I was waiting for him to fall asleep so that I could shoe polish the car to death! I planned to completely deck out the car with Pirates and what not. Well the guy wouldn't just go to sleep! He was too pumped up to sleep! Finally I told him I had to go get my contact solution out of the car. Poor Cameron was kicked to the couch so we could have his bed, so he was still awake and came outside to help me. I forgot all my ribbons I was going to use on the door handles upstairs with Jeff so that didn't happen! But I didn't get all the windows done and Cam put the flag on the car. When we went out to get in the car the next morning, Jeff's reaction was "Holly cow! The shoe polish fairy visited! Cool!" He walked all around the car and thought it was cool. Except the dang cheap stuff ran with the morning dew. We grabbed a towel and when we stopped for gas, the windows were dry so we could clean up the mess and redo the writing. When we got back in the car, Jeff says "I feel so much better now that our words are fixed!" He wanted all the other Wylie people on the road to see us! haha! It was a pretty cool drive when every couple of miles you saw another car that was all decked out for the Pirates! We would either honk or wave or both! It was fun! Too bad the Pirates lost...the offense just really sucked it up. Deffense did great! But they needed help from the offense to win the game! Jordan and I had fun, he would ask me all kinds of questions throughout the game and I would teach him about football....yes, me! Can you believe it?! I hope I didn't screw him up! haha! We stopped at this amazing tex-mex place called Cafe Adobe in the Woodlands on our way home. That was our Christmas present from Larry and Carla. Works for us! Give us food and we are happy! Larry and I decided we need to make another trip out there just for the food! Jeff not so much, poor guy drove there and back and was so tired. We didn't help much when we all feel asleep on the way home!! All in all it was a good day--minus the Pirates and the Cowboys losing! 
Last night we had Christmas with Jay and Reese. They came out to Royse City and we exchanged gifts and Jo and Jay played all night! Jeff slept on the couch! ha! We have a tradition that every year we buy each other a game. We used to play games all the time, but since they moved to Fort Worth, it has been difficult. But they will be back soon! They got Jo a racetrack and a dart nerf gun. I think Jay had more fun then Jordan! haha! It was a good night!
Well that is the "ketchup" version of what has been going on! We hope everyone has a MERRY CHRISTMAS!! If I had gotten my act together, you would have gotten Christmas cards from us, but I didn't so here it is!
MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM HEATHER, JEFF AND JORDAN!
