Happy New Year!

I did it!

Another full year with a picture everyday!

2014 was an amazing year, I know we have been a very blessed family with great opportunities and experiences and for this I am grateful!  

This year for New Year's Eve we had a family party.  We played games, ate lots of yummy appetizers and food, and made lots of noise at 11:30 (Which is when we told the littles it was midnight because they were all so tired)!  For me it was the perfect night...Family, Food & Fun!

Christmas Eve dinner!

The teen table

 The messy kitchen, prime rib carver, photographer, and girls who didn't make it on any table.

 The two enjoying their meal and oblivious that no one else is eating.

 Someone is T.O.'d that she didn't make the teen table.

 Dessert the girls made earlier in the day.

 Our Christmas and Nativity Program

(Baby Jesus took his job seriously)

 So did the Donkey (Joseph might have had a pink heart robe - same as Mary's, it could have happened).

 And angel

 Uhhhh

 Christmas jammies

A Clean-the-House day for our Holiday guests!

 She tackled cleaning the refrigerator.

(After all the hours we spend preparing, we were grateful to have "the cleaners" come and finish!)

More Christmas shopping and our annual Boise Friend Christmas Party

I have been friends with these girls for as long as I can remember and I love our annual Christmas party and white elephant exchange.
