New Years Eve from 09 to 10!

























Our trip down to be with my whole family over New Years was a blast! Charlie, Sophie and their cousins had so much fun, esp b/c Poppie made them their very own secret clubhouse, which was deemed the "Blue Swan Hotel" by Emi! This clubhouse included their very own hot tub....LOL...this was made possible in 20degree weather only b/c Poppie enclosed the Entire deck area surrounding the hot tub...or "hot pool" as all the kids call it, w/heavy duty plastic....so it actually was a sauna in there b/c he also put two heavy duty heaters inside..LOL....we called it the "redneck" way...but the kids found it to be paradise..LOL!!!!

So...New Years was so special to us to have our Sophie Su home....

We celebrated w/the kiddos until 9pm w/many rounds of charades...sipping bubbly white grape juice, wearing out the party hats and horns..and completed their evening out front w/a lovely firework display put on by their crazy Uncles!!!
Then off to bed for them, and us grown ups had a lovely evening ringing it on in sipping our own bubbly in the "Blue Swan Hotel"..LOL!!!!

Happy New Years to all!!! May your year of 2010 be as wonderful as can be!

Me, G and our sweet girls!
























Another holiday celebration with our dearest friends, Rusty, Georgette and Jaden! It has been five months now since G and I got our girls together....it is amazing how they both have grown and changed in those five short months. It has been so fun getting together as often as we are privledged to do so and see how each time the girls interact more and more and really seem to enjoy one another!
Another great blessing bestowed upon us is this family, and the fact that they live right here with us, so our girls can blossom together!

A Pre-Christmas Celebration w/family up north!










Charlie and Sophie had so much fun in early December when we went up to celebrate the holiday w/Grandpa Scott, Gramma Laura and their Aunts and new baby cousin Nora!
