Happy New Year~

Happy New Year everyone! Our family has been really busy over the last week. I hosted a New Year's party and we all had a really great time. We had a taco dinner. It worked out quite nicely and it was really good too~
The kids enjoyed playing and dancing together. Of course, I had to get in there and dance too. I love to dance - with kids or grown ups! We all had a really fun time together. It is really good to have such great friends!

Christmas Day

We had a wonderful Christmas this year. My little Tanner was sick with a fever which started Christmas Eve and all day Christmas day. Poor guy, he slept 4 hours on Christmas day. He is feeling much better now . Any how, we missed Rebecca and Steven (in-laws) as they are living in Florida now and were not able to make the trip home for Christmas. We still had a house full - full of family and full of love. My parents, my sister Many, my sister Stevie and her fiance Brock, Ms. Nancy(Steven's mother), and Steven's Uncle Joe and Aunt Jean were all here to celebrate Christmas. We had a nice brunch which consisted of way too much food, and opened gifts. The boys were so excited to see that Santa had brought them what they asked for. They got a Nintendo DS and a Wii. That is all that they asked for - good thing because the elves couldn't build them any more gifts! LOL. We all enjoyed the day - I just wished it could have lasted a little bit longer...



We sprinkled Reindeer food out- it consists of oatmeal and glitter. The glitter makes the oatmeal "sparkle" so the Reindeer can see it from the sky.










Here are the boys in their new jamimies. I normally get them Christmas jammies, but I couldn't find any this year. I think they liked these better!





Tanner - not feeling up to taking pictures.



Cookies for Santa.

The aftermath.... Sad - I know. But it was Christmas!
