New Years 2013!!!

We had plans for New Years Eve with a

big group of Walker's friends' parents. 

They have invited us every year and

it seems like something always comes up:(

Unfortunately this year was no different.

I had thought Hudson was over his stomach

virus so we went to Target that day.

Let me just say that he was NOT over it!!!

Target can assure you of that;(

 

But you know what?!?

What better place in the world to be

than at home with our little family???

Our friends still invited Walker

over since Huds was sick,

but he chose to stay with us!

I know a day is coming when he

won't choose his family for NYE...

Troy had fun doing fire works with the kids!

I do not like fireworks AT ALL...

not even sparklers!!!!!!

But my kids are crazy over them;)

We ate pizza, watched a movie,

snuggled and kissed at New York's

New Year's and then again...since

ALL were still up at our midnight!

We were a little silly, too;)

We also played some Memory!!!;)

Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!!

"Happy Happy Happy"

to celebrate with my family of five:)

Sister Pie was determined that she was

going to stay up all night.  She made this that

night before she finally fell out around 1:00 am!

 

 

Welcome 2013!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hadlee was so excited to wear

another "off the shoulder" shirt

that Aunt Lynna got her!  ;)

I love this girl like crazy!!!

The absolute best part of New Year's

Day though is that it's my beautiful

sister's BIRTHday!!!!

First baby born in Waco in 1965!!!!!!

Every year my mother cooks

for us on Michelle's birthday...

and the foods coincide with typical

New Year's Day traditions. 

Michelle is a FUN person to celebrate!!!

Mother couldn't find the other number...

but Michelle liked it that we

all had to be guessing forty~what?!?;)))

Praying her wishes come true!!!

Happy Birthday to my kind-hearted,

beautiful, fun, smart little big middle sister!

I couldn't love her more!!!

So thankful for her AND my sweet mother

who Troy says is the best cook in the world!

I tend to agree:)

Just a little something to

think about in 2013.....

"See, I am doing a new thing!

Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?

I am making a way in the desert

and streams in the wasteland."

Isaiah 43:19
