One of my new years resolutions is to start blogging again and to start using my camera more. It's been 3 years since I blogged and I've missed it. I'm also a bit bummed I haven't kept up with it and I've missed putting down memories that I don't have as clear in my head anymore. Plus, I've realized how little I take pictures anymore and my boys are changing right before my eyes. Life has been busy as a newly wed and now that we are about to introduce a new member into our family I want to make sure I document what's happening. So here is to the new year, my new resolution and my new blog!
For New Years Eve we had a nice (not so quiet) small family party with good food, games, and lots of family together-ness. The boys and I made Snowball cookies together. I realized it had been years since I baked cookies with my children. We had a good time. I let them do most of it. I let Skunk read the recipe (good reading practice) while Bug and I gathered ingredients and measuring utensils. Then I let Skunk mix the ingredients together as Bug measured and poured the ingredients into the bowl.
Don't let those angelic faces fool you...
Twinkie worked on a gun he is restoring while we baked. He may not look like it but he is having fun.
Can't wait for those cookies to come out!!
I do love having a good clean up crew available to me. ;)
After eating lil' smokies in grape chili sauce from the Crock pot, Won Ton Sausage Stars, Shrimp salad, crackers and onion cheese ball, pickles, and green olives....
We played the game of life... I laugh every time I see this picture. Twinkie has the BEST smile, don't you think?
OHHHHH!! There it is!!
Bug loves his play money.
After the game we watched a movie and wished each other Happy New Year... early.
