New Years

Happy New Year. We spent New Years camping with the OJT group. As usual we had a great time. We had 7 campers this time. We enjoyed ringing in the New year and a fabulous New years dinner together. It was cold, but we still enjoyed it!

Bonus, Collin got to bring his friend Kaleb from school. Thank goodness another BOY!

Christmas with Ann & Michael

We spent the day after Christmas with Grandma A and Grandpa Mikee. We met up for Mexcian food for lunch and then to our house for the presents and desert. As you can see the kids all had a great time opening the presents and we enjoyed the family time

We spent Christmas evening with Tim's mother and his sister's family and Jeff and Arlene's family. Jeff and Arelene have a new baby girl Ashlynn. Another new family member!

We really enjoyed the dinner and the get together. I forgot my camera at home, so I hope to have pictures soon from someone else!

Christmas with Mollie and Tim

We spent Christmas afternoon with Tim's Dad and Mollie. We normally go down to their house, but they are in the middle of some remodeling. It was nice for us to not have to get up and rush out after opening the presents, but we didn't get to see Shelby and Chris's families. Looking forward to getting back into the routine next year.

Christmas Morning

We woke up Christmas morning to a wonderful surpise. Santa had come. He left Kayla a TV for her room, a digital frame and an game chair for the play room. He left Collin a new bike, a Castle and as game chair.

This is Tim with his blanket that Kayla made for him. He said it was his favorite present.

Christmas Eve at Aunt Judy's

Christmas Eve at my Aunt Judy's. We had a great get together. I think we had about 40 people show up this year. It was really nice to see everyone. My dad came this year (which is a big surprise) and my Aunt Patty and Uncle Frankie. I enjoyed visiting with them.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas everyone. Today is Christmas Eve and it has been a great day. I started the morning by heading to Alvin to pick up Cake Balls for our family get together tonight, then back home and took the kids to see Santa. Then I shocked them by saying yes that we could go to build a bear. Now I am cooking a Lasagna and then we will be heading to my Aunts at 4:30. Tomorrow we have two get togethers with Tim's family and then another on the 26th. We have been blessed this year and we are very thankful. This is Kayla and Collin with Santa.
