Happy New Year!

Happy New Year everyone! The holidays were so much fun for our family! Unfortunately I was so busy and having too much fun to take pictures. I have some video but no still shots. I don't know what I was thinking...oh well.

Christmas Eve we spent at Jason's grandmother's house with Jason's parents and grandma. We made the traditional Christmas Eve dinner with ham, potatos, the infamous green bean casserole (my first attempt!), hot rolls and of course pretzel salad! It was a wonderful day and evening. We ate and ate, and then burned off our calories by playing the wii fit plus. That was our family Christmas gift this year, and it was a hit! Even Jason's dad had to try out the golf game on it. By the way Brent, you still hold the record! The kids got to open their Christmas jammies and wear them home that night. Thanks mom and dad for a memorable night!

Christmas morning was wonderful as well. Of course Santa found us and once again spoiled my kids! We actually slept a little bit longer this year and didn't get up until around 8am. We opened gifts and around 11am, my parents came and brought my sisters from Yuma with them. My sisters flew in that morning and we were their first stop on their way to moms. My Aunt Bonnie was also with them and we had a great visit in spite of all the chaos! Leslie and Minda stayed the week at my mom's so we of course had to travel everyday to see them. What a fun week we had! Thanks girls for all the laughs and of course the watch bands!

New Years Eve we stayed home and had Leslie and Minda come as well as Kristin and her family. We played wii fit and farkle, and of course ate! Thanks for all the help and fun you guys!

As the New Year is just getting started, I hope you all make the year 2010 the best one ever for you and your family.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
