Christmas 2010 - Seeing Houston from a Different Angle

Happy New Year to all our family and friends!  The McVeigh clan had a wonderful 3 weeks in Houston.  We were lucky enough to spend tons of time with the people we love.  We also got to see Houston from a totally different angle.  I rented a condo on the 19th floor in Tanglewood.  We always have loved thunderstorms (and miss them now) but they are totally awesome from a high-rise.  Thank you to Houston for delivering the range of weather we have come to expect...70 degree day (sandals), cold front (didn't bring a coat) and just enough thunderstorms to make us happy.  Too bad I was sick most of the trip....

I loved this game as a kid - "Perfection"  This was the Christmas of games.  I bought the girls this one, Connect Four, Operation, Monopoly Junior and taught my entire family Mexican Train.  Choo-choo!!

Sad tree but great view!  (Don't pity our tree - the girls loved decorating it.)

The girls with Andy Smith - the boy they will battle for someday.  ;-)
