New Years Eve. Usually, we don't do anything special as a family. I will let Kenna stay up and watch the countdown on TV, but nothing exciting happens. This year, since Nicole was here, I thought I'd let the girls have a little fun ringing in the new year. We all played games, and I bought sparkling white grape juice.
The girls thought it was so cool. At exactly 11:58 and 40 seconds, I opened up the bottle and poured Mark, Nicole, Kenna and myself some "champagne."
Nicole and Kenna LOVED it - in fact they were using the fancy glasses today and drank the rest at dinner. Then they both wanted me to go to the store to get more!

Getting ready to drink...starting the countdown!

All three girls!

While I was making dinner on new years day, Kasey fell asleep on Kenna.


I wanted to play monopoly with the girls tonight, so I let KC play in the plastic container cabinet. This is one of her favorite activities. She empties out the cabinet and tries to crawl inside. She can't quite make it yet, but the day is coming!

Nicole holding Kasey. Nic leaves tomorrow. I am really going to miss her. We have had such a good visit over the holiday. Everyone has loved having her hers e - even Jack...it's really cute that he refers to Nic and Ken as "the girls."
I know Jack is going to miss her, Kasey is REALLY going to miss her. Not only did we have a LOT of fun while she was here, but she was a HUGE help with Kasey. It's nice having an extra pair of hands around here.
I'm already looking forward to the next time she comes out here!
