New Years

We had a pretty quiet week after Christmas.  Clay was off most of the week but we really didn't do a whole lot.  Addie spent three of the days and two nights up at Gaga's house with her cousins Maddie and Mia so it was quiet around here.

While Addie was up at Gaga's, the kids started passing around a stomach bug so we were pretty sure she was going to come down with it as soon as she came home.  So, for New Years Eve, we kept it low key and Grandma and Grandpa came over to our house.

We had a delicious dinner with garlic tri tip, shrimp and balsamic glazed asparagus.  Addie and Grandma made some pretzels in her Easy Bake Oven, and we played some games on the Wii.   The kids finally went to bed about 10 and then we played a few games of Ticket to Ride.  





We celebrated midnight with a little Martinelli's and some pictures and then off to bed!



New Years Day was kind of a quiet day since it was a Sunday.  We just stayed home after church and relaxed most of the day. 

Clay had Monday off so we headed up to Pammy's for her traditional New Year's Day Pastry Wreath.  It's delicious!!! 


We played games with the family and just hung out most of the day. 



A few days after Christmas, Addie's beloved Beta fish from Santa, went belly up.  It was so sad because she had just spent all of her Christmas money buying a "house" for it.   So, when she was finally back from her fun with Gaga, we took her to Walmart and got her a new fish.   We went with some fancy goldfish this time hoping we'd have better luck.  Will got one too.   Meet Sally (the calico with a black eye!) and Nemo (Will's fish).  


Happy New Year everyone!!!  Welcome 2012!!!!
