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!
