Happy New Year's Eve

We are home tonight. I hurt my back yesterday so I am laid out till I can get to my Chiro (2 days from now.) We have our usual spread of finger foods on the table so we can pick at whatever we want all night. Tersa has gone to the New Year's Dance and will join Mardi and some other kids at the Brewer's afterward for breakfast. Mardi will stay at Brewer's all evening. (Usually the Schotts do breakfast but they have family in town this year.) We just put the baby down and plan on doing movies till the countdown. Let the fun begin!!

2012 Ornaments

 Every year I get ornaments for the girls. Years ago I started looking for ornaments that represented something they had done that year or something else that made the year stand out. This year we went to Colorado for a Lorenc/Larson Family Reunion. Dad has the grandkids call him pops and he gives them tootsie pops when they see him. So, I made these ornaments for this year.

Sand and Water table

The sand in the table is a hit so far. Water will have to wait until it gets warmer. I bought a 50 lb. bag of sand for it, hopefully that will last a while since we are talking about a two year old that doesn't really understand about keeping the sand in the table. Adding water in the Spring will be fun!

Christmas Morning 2012

 Shar got a web slinger, Anarya got a "pad" (hopefully she won't insist on having Joel's so much now) and a stuffed dog, Joel got a dress coat, Tersa got a Justin Beiber doll (that is never coming out of it's package and will be sold at a later date for lots of money) and high heeled boots, Mardi got a Hunger Games throw blanket, Tuesdi got an inversion table and Keddi got a jewelry organizer.

It's a Very Wilson Christmas

We decided to do Christmas with Wilson's on Christmas Eve. We came at around 6:00 with stuff to set out for dinner and everyone just hung out and ate when we felt like it. At some point we called everyone together to do gifts. My girls always appreciate what Mandy picks out for them, but it seemed that the kids were all especially excited about what they got.
