New Year, Finally Home, and Out of the Kitchen!            01/12/2012 03:45 PM
It's a New Year, I'm finally home longer than 5 days and thank goodness, I'm finally out of the kitchen long enough to get other stuff done!

Considering that we technically only spent Christmas Eve at home this year, it's been kind of crazy and it's just now that we have a breather. How are you doing? Have you recovered from the holidays yet?

Funny things I heard this week            02/11/2011 12:16 PM
Being around family all the time, you can't help but find the funnier side of life. Life can be difficult and often times it's the family that can make it difficult.

Christi Family is a blog and local family resource for Corpus Christi and surrounding areas of the coastal bend.Created by a family of five, we blog about everything that matters to us. We invite you to read about our journey as we catalogue our thoughts about Family Matters, Fun Matters, Home Matters, Faith Matters, School Matters, and other things that Just Matter (at least to us). We’re exploring Corpus Christi and are providing you with what we find. Whether you’re looking for local resources, wanting to find local events geared just for families, or are wanting a  quick reference guide on everything local, this might just be the place for you and yours.  We’re filling our pages with resources for mom’s, kids, visitors, newbies, and families in general. As we continue our adventures in life, we’ll also continue our exploration of what we can do with this site and hopefully you'll benefit! Our focus is family, it’s that simple. You won’t find business meetings listed on our calendars, instead you’ll see calendars for families, toddlers, or just parents. It’s your choice!   Join the fun! Let us know what you’d like to see or what you think we should explore! We’ll share our thoughts!
