We spent New Year's Eve this year with our friends the Dieckman's and the Crowther's. We had some really excellent food, but ate WAY too much and played Apples to Apples and Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader? Toby and Gage played Runescape on the computer all night and after board games Blake and Aaron played Guitar Hero. Aaron had such a good time we had to let him borrow our Guitar Hero for a couple of weeks. Us girlie's sat around chatting and snacking - loved it!! I've been so busy with school, it was great to spend time with them and catch up on what they've been up to. Just before midnight, we all gathered around the computer to watch the Time's Square Ball drop!! Unfortunately, we don't have cable - a small detail we forgot about when we invited everyone over. Luckily it was being broadcast live on the internet though, so we didn't have to end up missing it! We had a great time starting off the new year with our newest friends!!
Here is a little page we started to help keep in touch with our out of state friends and family. With everyone's busy schedules it is hard to stay up on what's going on in each other's lives. Please check back often as we will try and update info and pictures frequently. It seems like the kids change evertime you blink! They grow up way too fast!!!
From sweet to sassy in milliseconds. Lately we see way to much of this lovely face. Her sweetness makes up for it though! Good thing.

She was holding up her dress as she walked, just like a princess and instructing her friend Lucy to do the same. People in their cars were pointing and smiling as she passed by. It was pretty darn cute!
Blake and I were so fortunate to be able to go on a 15 day trip to Italy in September 2007. We had such a great time even with as much as we missed the kids. Poor Blake cried the first time we called home, okay okay it was really me! I'll admit it, I cried like a baby. I missed them terribly but they gave us the best homecoming ever!! While in Italy we went to Sicily, Naples, Pompeii, Rome, Cinque Terra, Venice and Milan. We even had a one day layover in Paris!
