December ~ A Month of Memories




This has been a very busy month for our family. We, like most families have had all the business of a typical December with Christmas parties, gift buying, not to mention normal everyday crazy life.

Though, last weekend was a very special weekend for the Robertsons. Landon had his last Christmas program at KU, which is emotional enough to think about. Then we headed to Lubbock for my brother-in-laws wedding. Friday was busy, busy and busy as we decorated the church for the wedding and rehearsal dinner. The picuture above is our only "family" picture this holiday season so far, which means that no one will get Christmas cards this year from us. We spent Friday evening "practicing" the wedding and enjoying the company of some very sweet people who drove to Lubbock to help us get ready and make sure that everything was perfect--right down to our hair and eyebrows (thanks so much Tana)! Saturday morning, we woke up to an ice storm much like today! The highway from Amarillo to Lubbock was almost solid ice, which gave the groom pretty low spirits. Within hours, the church was filling up with dear, sweet people that braved the storm to be there for Brian and Meagan.

The ceremony was wonderful--Mike did a great job. I cried through most of it, as I get teary-eyed now just thinking about it. Landon and his Uncle Brian have a very special relationship. Landon adores him. He played his quitar as Mike, Brian and Brandon all came in the chapel.

What a wonderful way to spend some precious time with family and friends, despite the weather. Meagan, welcome to this family--congrats and we love you both!
