Dear Friends and Family,This has been an eventful year for us! Cory graduated from the University of Michigan and is keeping busy with a new job. We are excited to own our first home and feel settled here in Texas. Lorin loves second grade. Izzy's cancer treatments continue to be very effective and she is growing up happy and strong. Ryan's got us all laughing non-stop.
We hope you are having a great holiday season. We miss and love you!
Love,
The Costleys
Cory, Kerri, Lorin, Isadore, and Ryan

So yeah, the Christmas card didn't make it to everyone's mailboxes, but we do love and miss you all--please accept the blog card as proof :)
Ok, I kind of wish this shot had been taken in time to make it on the card. My brother, Lane, flew in and brought us all cowboy hats--informed us we can't be true Texans without 'em.
So having my Mom here for the first 2 weeks of December was a Christmas wish come true. She brought that Christmas magic that I remember growing up. These are outfits she made for the girls (one of about 49 projects her and I completed).
Ryan, after sitting on Santa's lap (very hesitantly at first) opened up her goody bag and said "There's no Cinderella Dollie in here!" She was pretty sure that the thing she asked him for would magically be in the bag he gave her post-lap time.
The Neiman Marcus parade was amazing!
Izzy's 5th Birthday happened on the 18th. It really hit us that we questioned, last year, whether or not we'd see this day for her--our cancer survivor! (her blog has b-day details and pics)
Here's the rest of the fun shots!
