Rock Star!

Morgan wanted me to keep taking pictures of her until she said stop! Here is her Rock Star Photo Shoot!

Happy New Year!!

Hope everyone had a great New Year's!! Our family had a wonderful night last night. The Gardiner family came over around 4 pm and the kids just love each other!! They play so well together and Morgan and Claire let RJ and Zandi play with them almost all night!! There was only one time that I had to have a door unlocked to allow the younger ones to play! We had a yummy veggie lasagna made by Daddy, fixings provided by the Gardiners and cheesecake I made for dessert. Yum! The kiddos ate a little bit and played literally until they got packed up to head home! What a fun night, we were sad they couldn't spend the night, but we understood sleep was more important!!

Today we enjoyed some time at MeMom and PopPop's house watching the Mummers and spending time with Felicity, Uncle Bobby, and Auntie Nikki. Morgan likes playing with her cousin and we were told that Felicity is always chanting Morgan and RJ's names... they had a great time together.

The Mummers were good, and MeMom's spread of fattening appetizers that we eat for supper were delicious!!

We were also lucky to have Aunt Melanie spend some of New Year's Eve night and New Year's Day with us! We were glad she could join us so she didn't have to be alone... that would have been NO fun!

Art Work!

Christmas Village

We had a wonderful day today! We all hung out as a family (again) and played with all our new toys. Morgan loves her doll house and RJ loves playing with all his toys!! Morgan and RJ enjoy playing with RJ's pegboard together. They make towers and Morgan tries to make patterns, but RJ destroys them... it is great fun to watch!

Tonight we headed to Koziar's Christmas Village. Uncle Cameron, Deklan, and AJ decided to join us! We got there and got all bundled up!! Jackets and hats and scarfs and mittens/gloves and even a blanket for RJ's wagon!! It was around 25 degrees or so while we were there... burr! This is the second time we have been there and I enjoyed it as much as the first time! I am hoping to make this a family tradition for a while at least! The sight when you come over the hill is just amazement! So many gorgeous lights! Beautiful!! We walked around for almost 2 hours! It started with an outside train display. The kiddos liked watching the trains go around, I think there were 5 or 6 trains going at the same time. It was a neat display!! We walked through the Pooh Bear characters, the Grinch story, the story of Baby Jesus, the Charlie Brown characters, Noah's Arc, the Frosty story and much more!! There were also lots of lit up shed like houses that had windows that all the kids could look into. They had many different scenes, to name a few there was a firehouse, Santa's post office, an undersea Christmas, and an ice cream shop! Although it was FREEZING the kiddos did well and got through 3/4 of the display before anyone started commenting that they were tired, or cold, or didn't want to walk anymore!

I was so happy that I got to the Christmas Village this year. It is a sight for anyone who loves Christmas light displays to go to!! Extending Christmas just a few days longer!!

Rounay-Moyer Get Together

Today we visited at MeMom and PopPop's house with the Moyer Family. Morgan enjoys playing with Angela and Hannah. RJ and Felicity tagged along! We had a nice time.

It began snowing while we were still visiting. When we got home Morgan insisted she wanted to go out and play in the snow. I bundled her up and out she went. RJ was disappointed, but he stayed inside. Morgan was outside for almost an hour by herself, and for a little bit with the dogs, but even the dogs wanted to come back inside!

Merry Christmas!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

Santa's big gift he brought Morgan was a doll house for her barbies... what she REALLY wanted!!

RJ's big gift from Santa was a bead on wires toy!

Hope everyone gets just what they wished for! Santa brought me Sunday-season tickets to the Phillies!! Yea!!

The kiddos loved all their new things! Lucky kiddos... they were spoiled by Santa, us, MeMom & PopPop, Grandmom & Granddad, Aunt Megan & Uncle Andy, and Auntie Nikki & Uncle Bobby! Wow... thank you!!!

Merry Christmas to ALL
&
to ALL a Good Night!
