We had our annual New Years Eve get together, obviously on December 31st. Every year there are different people (at least a few to come and go), but we always have a good time. Before I go any further, I want to say that I have amazing friends. Friends that are there to celebrate with us during our good times, and to help us keep smiles on our faces when we are at our worst. Friends that we may not get to see as much as we'd like because they don't live next door, but would drop everything and run if we needed them. These friends love our children as much as we do, and we consider them family.

Charity, Shannon, and Caitlyn with the kids. We are all being silly eating tons of food!
Emilee bringing in the last of her pizza puffs. By the end of the night, we didn't have many (if any) leftovers at all.
Someone is enjoying playing her DS while she's on break. She knows she will be on a schedule very very soon!
Ok, so remember how I said I have amazing friends right? Well, a few years ago, Emilee and Mama Hillman made a red cape for Daphne for Christmas. Daphne loves that thing. She has gotten to grow into it so it doesn't drag the floor any more. Jocelyn has been playing with her cape, or using her blanket as a cape when they are playing Super Heroes.
Jocelyn opens her first present from Emilee and J...
What could it be?
Is that a purple cape???
Why yes it is! A cape for me?!?
We had to hold it out so we could check out the new Super Girl cape.
In our house, if you wear a cape, you must be really fast. So...off we go!
Running down the hall like lightning
We had to stop long enough to open our second present. It's always a book. No complaints here. The girls love books, even sleeps with them literally every night in the bed.
Even Super Heroes have to stop and read every once in awhile.
Where there is one Super Hero, there is bound to be two...
Do you see the purple streak?
Off running around saving the day
Even j has a cape!
We have this tradition where we play board games, at least one during New Years Eve. This year's chosen game was Monopoly. By about 2:00, Emilee had fallen asleep. Clinton, J, Allen and I played until about 3:30. It was a good game in the end.
