Happy New Years Everyone!!

Awww....New Years. It's 2009! I, for one, am very happy to see a new year come. I am looking forward to the promises this new year will bring.

This past year was full of many happy memories. Some that will stay with me forever. I think as I look back I am most amazed by how much my children have grown. Not just physically, but in many other aspects as well. I am so proud of both my children. I couldn't have more love for them then I already have.

I am already looking forward to all that 2009 has to offer. This is a BIG year of many changes for my family. So here we go......HAPPY NEW YEARS EVERYONE!

We celebrated New Years with Joe, Gina, and Christian yesterday. It was super fun and the kids are always so cute together:-)

Mikayla wearing Joe's Steelers Christmas hat....ROFL

Mikayla and Christian racing up the hall. They did it over and over and OVER.

Trying to get a picture of the two of them....man is it tough!

Christian with "rocket"

This is out of order. This was right before we left. She was "played out."

Christian intently watching TV

Brother and sister hanging out...for a moment at least!

Weeeeeee!!!

All smiles for Gina

Don't they look like an old married couple hanging out on the couch for the night...watching the evening news or something?

Kisses for Christian

Alec...he was all sweaty and hot from running around. He had FUN let me tell you!

Alec finally taking a moment to SIT DOWN

Hey...I can open presents too...is it for me? HAH! Christian looked at her like she was CRAZY for touching his gift:-)

I can help! Really I can!

Gift time!

Christian loved Mikayla's Elmo Live. I took it over there and now I think Christian will be getting one shortly:-)

ROFL. Alec is now wearing the Steelers Christmas hat. HAH. If you don't live in Ohio then you don't understand the rivalry between the Browns and Steelers. We are Browns fans, but THEY are Steelers fans....YUCK!
