Jared's Dad has been doing the sound for Texas
Tech's Carol of Lights for like 30 years...
ok, maybe only 25. So, it has a very special place in our hearts as far as Texas Tech Traditions go. I love listening to the trombone choir, Oh Holy Night, and watching the campus light up at just the right moment. It is a beautiful night full of family and fun. We try to never miss a year even though we have moved away from Lubbock. This year was the 50
th anniversary and it was cold and wonderful. We look forward to many more wonderful Carol of Lights!
The Family
Kyra's 1st Carol of Lights...she was just fed and very happy. It is difficult to nurse a baby when you have on 6 layers, but it can be done...just in case you were wondering.
Amy was like a little marshmallow in her coat.
Ian was intense. Is anyone surprised?
Eric enjoyed the hat that kept him oh so warm.
Tara was a social butterfly chatting with the whole family.
I loved having all the kids with me, sharing something I love.
Can't wait until next year...

Looks like fun! the nursing does sound challenging. Makes me wonder about Eskimos. hmmmm...
What a fun family picture! Love the one of you and the older kids at the end too...
Looks like it was fun. No vomit, either!
By the way...
I don't know about nursing but Eskimo babies sit in their own poo for days at a time. It keeps them warm. I read this useful bit of trivia in Lauren's "Truth about Poop" book.
I always wanted to go when we lived in Lubbock, but never got too!! We need to go next year and check it out..
Nursing in six layers. Yuck. I have a hear enough time working around one layer!
The rest looks like fun. I like the pic of you and Kyra.
Sick Stephanie sick.
This is me being horribly jealous. We used to go every year too. Stupid California. They don't have ANYTHING here!
That looks like a lot of fun. You always do so much great things with the kids.
Can I just say you look smokin' hot in that last pic. Foxy Mommy. Still have it after five. Wahoo!
