How is it the end of January....

Dear blog.....I have missed you and left you hanging. I promise to try and update you more on the ups and downs and adventures of our little family in 2010.

It has been 2 months since the last update so I think is safe to say that there is no way I am going to b e able to catch up so I will just give you the highlights.

We started the Christmas celebrations with my side of the family. We headed out to Holidays on the Farm in Lathrop for a little snow sledding and fun. the kids had a blast.

Chris and Dani ready for some sledding

Chris loved that he was able to do it all himself.
Dani had fun riding with Aunt Mami
Mor Mor and her babies in the sled.

Then we packed out bags and headed to Florida for 8 days with Bryan;'s family. This was the first year the kids were able to spend with Auntie Brooke, Papa and Nana so they were thrilled. We got their just in time for Bryan and his dad to celebrate their birthdays in style, Magic Kingdom! The weather was great and the kids were in heaven.

Keeping with our family tradition, we walked to Starbucks on Christmas morning. It was a little farther then at our house, but we did and had a blast.


Bedtime stories with Brooke

We were even able to sneak in a family photo with Bryan's family.......thankfully it was a good one since it gets sent to way too many people in all their support letters. The kids were good sports though.

We got home just in time for Bryan to spend New Year's Eve at work and I took the kids down the street to our friends house to ring in the New Year. All the kids did great and lasted until about 2:00am........the best part was that Chris slept till 12:30 the next day.

Well there we have we are in January. We are already three weeks into the year and I don't know where it has gone. The kids have jumped right back into their activities, schools and adventures. I will do my best to keep updated with all that goes on here in our little home.

Until then....
