Happy New Year!

Happy New Year from our family to yours! May 2014 be a blessed year for everyone!

New Year's Eve

Somehow we have started a tradition of Kelly and Mack coming over on New Year's Eve.  We usually get some sort of takeout, the kids stay up until midnight and the adults have some beverages.  This year was no different.  The girls got to run around like hooligans, toast with sparkling grape juice and wrestle each other all night long.

Rylee was more of an observer than a participant in the wrestling festivities.  Frankly, that fact surprises me.

Ready to cheers the New Year!

Ready for 2013 and whatever it may bring!

12/31/11: Happy New Year!

It's finally here, my last post of 2011.  I have officially accomplished my 2011 New Years resolution and took a picture every day and blogged about it.  This is one of the best things I ever decided to do. I plan to turn our blog of 2011 into a book and maybe even make copies for the kids to have when they are older. One of my 2012 resolutions is to continue the blog but just not every day.  If anyone is even thinking about doing this in 2012, DO IT! You won't regret it.  So nice to look back at our year as family.

2011 was a truly incredible year for our family.  Here is a short list of those things.

Paul: Promoted at work, ran a 5K, and still remained the only testosterone around these parts.

Kristy: Started a fantastic new job, got pregnant, and turned the big 3-0! .

Together we celebrated 5 years of marriage and 9 years together.

Morgan: Started preschool, ran a 5K, got her ears pierced, and turned the big 3!

Rylee: Started walking, started talking, turned 1, and became a big sister.

Tenley: She arrived and joined our chaotic family! :)

We have truly been blessed in 2011 and are anticipating a fun filled, healthy, and happy New Year.  2012 will bring us a wedding and a new brother-in-law and uncle, 3 beautiful girls, and I'm sure so much more.

Happy New Year from our family to yours!
