Christmas 2011

Valentines day fun...

 We made about 60 sugar cookies and the kids decorated them...Then Phoebe leans over and grabs her tummy and moans... we ask what is wrong... "My Tummy HURTS!" haha little too much sugar!

New Years Eve 6th Annual party! And cousins come over

We threw our annual New Years bash and this year our numbers increased! Of course I have been too busy parting to be taking pictures so sorry for the lousy pictures... This year we had the Richards, Callans, Davis', Beuttenmullers, and Lamjavs! 12 adults, 18 kids! WOW! It was a BLAST! We had Tons of yummy food, we played some really fun games, kids played well, and we did lots of Poppers, and at Midnight there was a very loud horn honking episode. Fun was had by all!
Adam making the Brazilian Lime aids... YUMMY! Though the second batch was better! Sorry about that!

A little Wii playing going on!

As you heard our Lamjav's came up from VA, The kids are so excited to play with Milan and Sofia, and meet Vienna! We are so glad Amy and Munich decided to come up and play!

And they brought Isabella their pet rat, which the kids have been torturing!
But I think she likes it!

Christmas time is here!

We had a lovely Christmas, we had a fun day Grandma and Grandpa where able to be with us and lots of spoiling happened....

They loved their pillow pets! This is what I got spoiled with a Kitchen Aid and a new diamond for my wedding band that I lost in Maine this summer! YEAH!Happy kids! Sleepy Dad!

Christmas Eve

Merry Christmas Eve! The kids had a great night opening their new PJ's...
Hamming it up for the camera, and loving each other!
WE love you all~ May your Christmas be Merry and Bright!

Gingerbread demolition...

Gingerbread house

Well Since Adam is gone off to Utah to find our new Home Sweet Home, I had to get the kids to make a mess for a good cause rather than just general destruction....
So we ran to Wegmans and I dropped the big kids off in the playplace and went shopping for Gingerbread candy, and the house and frosting supplies! (I love you forever Wegmans)

Well we got home got the frosting made, and put up the walls...Then I MADE the kids eat dinner while it set up. mean Mom...

Then we got the roof on and set out to make it pretty, or well decorated at least! We had a lot of fun, there where some close calls where Phoebe just wanted to eat the whole thing... but over all it went well..
