Marshall, Texas

One of our family's favorite holiday traditions is going to a near-by city, Marshall TX to see the lights they put up in downtown Marshall each year. There are fun activities such as ice skating, rides and all the little shops lined up are open with lots of vintage/old-fashioned things for sale. It is lots of fun and this year we went along with out friends the Free family.  Here are some pictures of the trip! ~ Bethany for the Wards

SNOW!!!

On the 9th of January we were pleasantly surprised with 4 inches of snow here in Flint, Texas! We all had a blast and it was a very special treat since you will NEVER find snow here in Texas! Enjoy our pictures!
