Happy New Year!

We celebrated New Year's Eve with friends and had a nice low-key evening at home.  The girls played all things make belive and the adults had fun playing games. The perfect way to end 2015!

We certainly had ups and downs this past year, but I'm ready to go forward into 2016 with hope, joy and contentment for a wonderful year ahead of us.  I hope the same for all our family and friends!

Let's celebrate!








Right before resolutions start... we needed to go out with a food bang!




Neon balloons were so fun!













Jammies and toasting with cranberry juice!











Love imagination play!




From our family to yours, happy new year!

Winter Break continued...

I've said it so many times, it truly does take a village. And we are so thankful for ours!

Many thanks to all our parents for watching Rea this week while school is on winter break.  Half of the week peanut had fun up north, the other half she'll have fun here down south.

Helping Grandpa in the shop!



Whether you are working or staying home with the littles, I hope everyone finds some joy this winter break!

Winter Break fun!

We started winter break out with a bang!

Sleepover fun-


Santa and Rudolph:





Having fun at the mall!



Neither of them wanted to ride Santa's train this year... they are growing up too fast!



Getting rid of some holiday spunk at Skyzone!  My first time and it was really cool. Next time I may even jump myself!












Date night!  We celebrated our friend Justin's birthday- Happy birthday J!












The presents are wrapped, cookies for Santa are made and now we just wait for the big guy's arrival! Reagan is beyond excited for Christmas day but a little sad that Elfie will be going back to the North Pole.  I, however, am ecstatic.  Merry Christmas!
