We're back!

My boys are so handsome!

We had a wonderful Christmas and we hope you did too. We really enjoyed our time with family in Nebraska and we are now at home relaxing. We will post more photos from our trip and other festivities from this past month sometime soon so check back soon!

One more thing...

Okay so I know I just posted, but I figured I better put these photos up before I get lost in a world of Christmas parties and traveling, where blogging does not exist.

Last Sunday, the three of us met up with David's dad, step mom, and little brother at Cracker Barrel [yum]. They were in Colorado to referee a couple of basketball games and luckily had some time to visit with us before they headed back to Arizona.

Rick, James, and Diego. Don't you just love the Santa hat's on James and Diego?

Diego, Kim, and James. I don't know why my kid was looking off into space.

So once again, Merry Christmas. We appreciate and love all of you guys dearly and hope you have a great holiday.

O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree

It's hard to believe that December is almost gone. It seems like I blinked on Thanksgiving and it was suddenly December 19th. Reality should have set in once we experienced a couple of snowy days with temperatures in the negatives and attended a couple of Christmas parties but I still manage to be in denial and our Christmas cards haven't been sent off.

A week from now the three of us will be in Nebraska to spend a few days with some of David's family. We can't wait [well except for the eight hour drive which I would gladly miss] to spend some time with the family.

So time to get to the real reason you visit our blog - photos of James. Being the wonderful mother I am, I shoved James in his huge, fluffy, warm snowsuit and put him in front of the tree for an impromptu photo shoot before we left the house. I hope I didn't overheat our poor child.

In case I don't get on here to post again before Christmas...
Merry Christmas from the Ruybalid's!

Because when you are this good-lookin', you have to be a model.

My favorite.

But I love this one too.

Wait - Maybe this one is my favorite...

I can't make up my mind. I love them all.

Thanksgiving Photos

It's December 10th already? Where did this month go?

Here are some photos from the wonderful Thanksgiving week and weekend. Enjoy!

Four reasons to be thankful. Miriam, Kaelyn, James, and Kyla. James doesn't mind being the only boy [so far] and has promised to protect all of the precious girls in the family. Yes, he told me this.

My husband is a stud.
