Happy New Year!

Happy 2009! We had a fun party to ring in the new year. We played the lucky penny game. We find hidden pennies around the house and then talk about the cool things from the year past and the year to come. Lily found most of them!


Bummer this picture didn't turn out, but it shows the fun we had stomping on bubble wrap. That activity is so much stinking fun! It makes a great noise and the kids can't get enough of it.



Yummy rootbeer floats topped off the party.

Aaaah, I love your family! Lily is so cute jumping on those bubbles. You had a much more fun party than we did. We didn't do anything with the boys and Jaren fell asleep at about 11:00. :( To answer your questions, I do crafts late at night, and then regret it the next morning! My blog background is from cutest blog on the block too, I just took out the little square cuz I didn't like it. You should find some time for your cuttlebug Jill! It's so fun!!! And I would love to see what you do!

Jill, your gorgeous! I loved seeing what you've been up to during the holidays. It looks like you had a great Christmas and New Years. you're the cutest mom ever! Just like I knew you'd be when we were mission companions. Lily and Carter, not to mention Aaron are all very lucky! Love you and miss you. xoxo
