It's a Party!

Ethan had his 10th birthday party last night, he will turn 10 tomorrow!  The boys has a blast, we went to the pool first, no sliding this year due to a lack of snow!  We came home for a chicken wing supper, wii games, and cake!  They finally crashed around 12:30 but were back at it at 6:00am!!  Fun times, I can't believe he's 10 years old already!

It's Christmas!

The cousins doing their gift exchange.

Boxing Day festivities!

This is the most useful collage, shows which adults got what this year so we can look back next year.  Well, except Chris...for whatever reason you got a penguin pillow pet and a piece of Tiramisu in 2011!!  I know, the wallet is already in your pocket!

Christmas morning at our house.

Bey blades was a big hit with the kids, and Grandpa!!

Waiting to give presents...

Christmas Family

It took a few tries to get a nice family picture (thanks to Movember/wind/snow) but Chris finally succeeded!  Merry Christmas to everyone!

Seattle Escape

Jim and I escaped on a trip to the Seattle area in mid November, here we are at the chilly beach near the condo where we stayed!  We shopped, relaxed, ate out, Jim joined the guys for a football game while I shopped with Carolyne!  It was great!
