New Years

It finally snowed here so the kids were anxious to head out to play.  We were very disappointed to discover that everyone had outgrown their snowgear so we had to piece together different things to get it all on them!  Luckily snowpants are somewhat adjustable!  The girls wanted to make a snowman but the snow wasn't quite wet enough.  Lincoln stayed inside and enjoyed the peace and quiet.

That evening, we decided to go on a family camping trip.  This of course involved air mattresses and pretend tents that we set up in the family room.  We watch How to Train Your Dragon, played Pretty Pretty Princess, and ate snacks and English Muffin pizzas.   Then it was finally bed time - a few hours before midnight!  Lincoln was lucky enough to still get the luxury of his crib, but the rest of us roughed it!

This morning we ate breakfast and talked about the New Year and our resolutions.  Here is what everyone had to say:

Lincoln - He told us he wants to try out solids and learn to walk this year!
Idgie - She said, "Santa!"  Which I'm pretty sure translates to: "I plan to be a super good girl this year so Santa will come again next Christmas."
Lil - She said, "I want to color a LOT!"  Which translates to, "I am going to practice becoming a better artist this year."
Emmaline - She said she wanted to learn more about swimming this year.
AJ and Bethany -  We resolve to survive another year!  But mostly our only big plan for the year is to do something fun for our anniversary.

Happy New Year everyone!
