New Year's Eve

We spent New Year's Eve at Ben's parents house. The family always gets together for food, fun, and ringing in the New Year. Owen tried green beans for the first time. He did pretty well with them. He ate about half the container! Mom and Bob came over and took Hannah and Owen home so Ben and I could play. The evening was filled with playing Guitar Hero and Trivial Pursuit. Then we watched the ball drop and toasted in 2009! We hope your 2009 is filled with Health, Happiness, and Prosperity!

Christmas Day

Surprisingly enough, Nana and Papa made it to our house before Hannah got up. Santa had been there! He ate the cookies!

Santa brought Hannah a big dollhouse, dinosaurs, a Pinkie Pie pony, a doll, and Littlest Pet Shop animals.
Santa brought Owen a huge Pound Puppy, a basketball goal, and a farm truck.
Owen was up early (well, his usual time) so we looked at his things.
Soft puppy!



Yay! Bibs so I can eat!
