Until Next Year
We had a wonderful Christmas, but it was crazy busy. Our Christmas started last Wednesday and ended last night. That is over a week of various Christmas gatherings......whew! Today I packed up the decorations and feel like I can breath again. Our house was over taken with decorations and kids toys. Tonight we are enjoying a quiet New Years. Mike made a wonderful dinner, the kids went to bed early and now we are sipping wine, watching movies, and probably will find my way to bed before the clock strikes midnight. I am trying to get all my Zzzz's in before the dreaded Monday. Bye Bye Maternity leave - back to reality.......Boohoo!!!
Lilah, Gracie and Will.....all within 6 months of each other.
Mom and Lilah. Lilah wasn't sure about Santa (yet again).
Lilah wearing my Christmas dress from when I was her age. My mom was in heaven!

Trying to get a group shot, but still missing 3 of the kiddos. Gotta love 8 kids under the age of 5 - Our family doesn't mess around!
At least one of my girls liked Santa ;-)
The kids in their capes. Grandma got them capes with their names on the back. Very cute!
Loving my baby girl.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Years Everyone!

Stanwood Dinner
The girls and I had our monthly dinner in Stanwood on Wednesday night. We normally hit up the local Mexican restaurant where we use a 2 for 1 coupon and split fajitas, but for the Holidays we decided to mix it up. We enjoyed a tasty dinner and wine at the Stanwood Grill. Karli planned a interesting gift exchange where we found ourselves passing lip gloss, bunny crackers, gum, and another item every time the word "the" was said in the story Twas the Night Before Christmas. Imaginative...... yes...........a bit long.....perhaps..........totally Karli - absolutely! Lets just say I walked away with a 6 pack of Busch Light and 2 Sparks. I Can't wait to crack those open and relive my college days ;)
Looking at this picture makes me smile. I remember meeting each one of these girls freshman year of college and continue to cherish there friendship everyday.Lis
We washed our face every night at Regence and never spoke one word the entire first semester. Then end up sleeping with our beds pushed together on the porch of AGD's the next 2 years. Even though you called me fat, turned me into a stalker, and made fun of my Merle Norman products I will always love you. You are one of the most loyal friends I have ever had - never judging me for any of my many mistakes or flaws and I will always be grateful.
Karli Sue
I was a little unsure about you when we became "twins" in the house. I still remember thinking "I don't know about this Karli girl, she just doesn't talk." Thank god for that walk around campus and you singing "I did it all for the nooky" at the top of your lungs! You are my Go-To friend for questions about anything - even though your answers are only 75% true (wink wink) and perhaps one of the nicest people I have ever met.
Beck
Not that I don't have college memories with you, but nothing tops our memories of living in Vegas. The memories we created will always be near and dear to my heart. We did things young people should and we will NEVER share with our children. You are a breath of fresh air and always make my heart smile.

Apple Cup & Karli's Birthday in Seattle
Too much drinking and karaoke lead to a terrible hangover. However it was so fun and totally worth it!

The Lights of Christmas
We finally made it to The Lights of Christmas in Warm Beach. It was beautiful! I can not explain how wonderful it was to watch Lilah and Teran in absolute bliss - they were wide eyed and all smiles.
