The kids loved all of the lights. Eve wanted out of the stroller only 5 minutes into it. She was so happy looking around at all the lights.

Enjoying the train park lights



My (Mandy) first attempt at a video. Ellie is in the pink hat on the left, Nate is in the gray hood on the right, and Eve is sitting on Daddy’s lap to the right of me.

Happy New Year!

Decorating our New Year’s crowns.

The kids made it all the way until midnight with no nap. Nate almost gave up with about 10 minutes to go but we kept him up. We had a fun night of playing games, eating root beer floats, and watching a movie. We even had a toast at midnight using sparkling punch in wine glasses. The kids were more than ready to go to bed and went right to sleep.
