New Year's Eve and Parent's visit

We spent New Year's Eve at home with my sister and parents. We had sandwiches and other yummy foods with a side of football and card games.


My parents came for Christmas and my sister's wedding. The majority of the time they were at our house, the girls just wanted to be read to and chased. They truly enjoyed having their grandparents here.


Bowling

We took the girls bowling for their first time on New Year's Eve. They seemed to enjoy it for a few minutes. Katya enjoyed it the whole time, but Cali, who enjoys bowling at home, would rather play with 2 quarters and a dime instead of bowling.


Cali insisted or carrying her own 6 pound ball and only dropped it once









Proof that I was there. (I am not about ready to post any pictures of me bowling.)

Cali beat us all

My younger sister, Beka, got married on Dec. 29. Although it was a long day, the wedding was beautiful and we are happy to welcome Nate into the family.

Christmas Day

Christmas was a nice quiet affair this year. We started out with the girls opening their stockings and presents from us in the morning. About noon my family came over and we opened some more presents and then had dinner. The girls really enjoyed it and were a little overwhelmed by all the unwrapping and presents.

7 weeks from Christmas Eve we get to meet out little guy. I can't wait!

Pajamas!


I love our Christmas Eve tradition of getting the girls new pajamas and I love even more that Costco always has really cute Carter's footie pajamas for such a good deal.
