New Year's Eve 2011

We went over to our good friend's house on New Year's Eve. Fireworks and the kids playing, they had a blast. No pun intended.




Caleb Turns 8!

My sweet, rambunctious Caleb turned 8 on New Year's Eve. This little boy makes me smile everyday!






He had a little party with some of his best friends at Chuck E. Cheese.

Here he is in the ticket blaster. I love his little face in this shot.

Christmas 2011

Christmas morning we got up and opened presents and had our breakfast tradition of eggs benedict and hot chocolate. It was a perfect start to our day. Later we went to Erin's parents and had a nice afternoon.



Still wearing those goofy hats they got the night before at the zoo.

Lukey was a little excited to get his Happy Napper.

The boys couldn't believe we got them the XBox.

Noah finally meeting his new cousin Ethyn.

Our brood with Erin's brother's kids.

Christmas Eve 2011

I should probably just restart my blog with current pics instead of trying to play catch up, but I have quite a few pictures I really want to post. So bear with me.

On Christmas Eve we decided to do Zoolights with my sister and her family. We've struggled with this night ever since my dad passed away because it was always his night. I have to say that it was my favorite Christmas Eve in a long time!

Cousins in their funny hats.


I'm glad my boys are so skinny, because they still like to be carried.

They loved the polar slide.



My sister's beautiful family.

My gang.

After the zoo we went home to Angel's for dinner and smores!

Noah's First Wrestling Match

Noah had his first ever wrestling match on December 1st. It was so exciting to watch! He seems really good and excited about it. I can't wait to see how he progresses.


Dominating!

Pin!

Another Cousin!

Ethyn William Spivey

6 lb 5 oz

Proud uncle and auntie.

The only cousin old enough to visit him in the hospital. I figured out watching her hold him that she was the same age as I was when I got pregnant with her. Yikes!

Turkey Trot 2011

Erin was able to take a couple hours off so we could go to the boys' annual Turkey Trot. I ran with Luke and Erin ran with Caleb. Then we had lunch with both of them. They love when we get to join them for school activities.



Mommy and Luke's run.



Daddy and Caleb's run.

Spirit Awards

I got an email from each of the boys' teachers that they were getting surprise awards at the Spirit Assembly. They were both so happy to see us when they walked in and even more shocked when they were called up for the "Kindness Award."


Halloween 2011

Luke as Snake Eyes.

Caleb as Storm Shadow Ninja.

Noah as Pinhead.

Darian and her friend Shannon as Mario and Luigi.

My little ninjas.

More Catch Up

Darian played in her last high school state tournament on October 28th and 29th. We had so many people come out and support her, it was awesome! We are so proud of our girl!




She tied for 6th out of over 80 golfers!
