New Years Eve 2007

New Years Eve was spent at our house. A few of our friends came over with their kids so that the kids could get crazy, and we dont have to worry about getting a table for 20. We had Lucilles BBQ. MMMMM... The guys sat outside with a fire pit, and the ladies had fun inside. We had cocktails, a chocolate fondue fountain (of course!), played the WII, which is awesome, and just had fun. The girls all played dress up, and tortured poor Logan, who was the only boy besides Jonathan. We had so much fun, and all the kids were still awake at midnight, except of course Jonathan.
Poor tim's wife was sick, so mike filled in

Kelsey's dress up fashion statement!

time for a huuuuge post!

The holidays were craaaaazy! They absolutely flew by. Here is a brief synopsis of what went on.

We went to disneyland with the Smarts! We had and awesome time. It was so nice to for Kelsey to spend time with other girls who are daredevils, just like her! She especially had fun with Gracie, who is just a bit older than her. Small world and the princess' castle were absolutely amazing! It was so much better in person, the pics do not do it justice!







This year we went to see the lights on Thoroughbred, but instead of walking, we took chris' parents golf cart, all decked out in xmas lights. The kids loved it!!


I had to work christmas eve, which is traditionally spent opening presents at Chris' parents house. So when i arrived, the kids were barely awake, and chomping at the bit to open their presents!








It has become a tradition at our house that we buy a family ornament each year, so here is our 2007 Ornament.


So under out tree this year was a big tricked out wagon, it even has a lift on the back for a cooler! This was a gift to the kids from the Hale family. Dave Hale actually won it at a golf tournament, and gave it to the kids. Isn't that sooo generous! Thanks to the Hales!




Christmas morning, and Christmas dinner were at our house this year. That was alot of work. Chris cooked breakfast for the entire family, and kelsey patiently waited until 10:00AM to open her presents. She is such a good girl. Then we cleaned up and got ready for dinner. I absolutely love my crystal glasses at christmas time. They were a gift from my mom a few years back, and i get so happy when i get to take them out and use them.




Jonathan trying to box like his aunt and uncle, everyone loves the WII!!!!!
So thats it for this post, next post, New Years eve!!!

Feelin funky....

Kelsey has been so sweet helping me play with some new equipment i got for christmas. She is so well trained and very patient for me. I am very happy with my new toys. No, she is not wearing makeup, it kinda looks like it, but that comes from the cross processing i do to the images. Thanks Princess Kelsey!

I love my wedding dress Mommy!!!!!!

For christmas, Kelsey got bride in a box. Basically, everything you need to dress up as a bride. Even a garter belt. hmm, i took that away, she didn't notice. She absolutely loves dressing up on a daily basis. Anyway, today she was wearing it all, and wanted her picture taken in it. What kind of photographer, um, i mean mother would i be if i didn't oblige her wishes??? So, painfully, i took her picture. Mommy got a new toy for christmas, a new flash. Lovin it!!!!


Stay tuned for all the christmas pics, i'm still going through them all. Yikes!!!!!
