Christmas 2012

I can’t believe another month has passed since my last update.   In that time, we celebrated Christmas with both sides of the family, nursed the girls back to health following bouts of pneumonia, daily bandaged two of Logan’s burned fingers (ouch!) after a treadmill accident on New Year’s Eve, and resolved to be better at exercising, managing time, and getting enough sleep.

Today we’re all healthy and well.  I know it’s a little late to be sharing Christmas pictures, but please bear with me.  I also have a new idea for this blog in February, so check back here again when you flip the calendar at the end of the week.  :)

Our family picture for the Christmas card:

And the five of us on Christmas Eve.

While my side of the family was home for the holidays, my parents hosted a “Princess and Knight Party” for the grandkids.  The party included plenty of dressing up, decorations, a fancy meal (mac-n-cheese and pbj sandwiches cut into crowns), and ballroom dancing (Disney dvd).  We all had a memorable evening.

And the Darling side:

When we celebrated with the Darlings, the kids got to go sledding a couple times at Grandpa and Grandma’s house and had so much fun doing it!  We haven’t had enough snow here at home to sled again since then.
