Party in Pampa....

We've been able to spend some time with my parents, sister, and grandmother in Pampa this week!
We hadn't been here an hour when Anna Claire found this desk and decided she needed to do some 'homework'! If you can't find AC, check the desk. She has spent so much time there this week drawing, cutting paper, etc! Too cute.
Sophie also came with us on this trip, and she has yet to thaw! She is not a fan of this cold weather, so we've kept her coat on her at all times.
Mom was kind enough to clean everyone's teeth while we're here. AC wasn't too sure about the whole process, so Mom cleaned AC's doll's teeth first!
My parents' rent house here in Pampa is a trip! One room is red, the master bath is turquoise, the main hallway is black and white horizontal stripes, and the list goes on. It's a fun house! Here's AC in the tub in the master bath!
There was a little snow on the ground when we arrived...left over from Christmas Eve. This was AC's first time with snow, so she was estatic! It wasn't long before it started snowing again!



While here, we had a family Christmas dinner like no other. According to Anna Claire, it was a princess Christmas dinner because she got to wear the dress she has nicknamed her Cinderella dress. We all dressed up and enjoyed some delicious food! My sister and grandmother stepped up to the plate in a big way and made the most unique and wonderful meal. Mom busted out the china and silver and we had ourselves a great evening.




Anna Claire was ready to ring in the new year decked out in some festive glasses.
We made a trip over to Amarillo, and AC wasn't too sure about the "Amarillo aroma" (read: COWS).
On New Year's Eve, we woke up to snow...and it kept snowing!



AC took a little break from the snow to help Gigi make some sugar cookies. Of course, a little flour fight ensued.

At dinner, AC felt the need to help herself to a helping of mashed potatoes. Who needs a plate?
And today - New Year's Day...we were able to go sledding again. Fun, fun memories.
