Welcome to 2017!

Let me start by apologizing for my lack of blogging (ahem, Sherri!) but my travel business has kept me hopping!  Without further ado...

If you're wondering what the best $8.88 I've ever spent was...it's on Pie Face. The kids love this game!


We played New Years Eve with Hudson and Sloane!


They also brought over Watch Your Mouth, which Maddie was a huge fan of.


The weather has been COLD and the mild and then COLD so, when it's mild, we like to sneak outside for some fun!

Our matching Saturday sissies continues.



Maddie had her first Snow Day! She went to the neighbors for a bit while I worked and they sledded on the the tiny amount of snow we got. HA!

Maddie made her first Vision Board at school. Her task was to pull in clip art that she wanted in her future. Evidently she needs a mini-van to drive around her litter of golden retriever puppies! She told me she wasn't sure if she was going to be a princess or a teacher so she put picture of both!

We took the new bridge over to Pizza King. Good grief, it makes it SO easy to get to my favorite pizza. This could potentially impede my summer bikini body.


Loving the train!

Then, we surprised my grandma who was so excited to see us. She immediately got out all of the cookie ingredients to make her special cookies.
We weren't mad about it!

Grandma reminded me that I'd been making cookies since I was three years old and was so little I had to stand on a chair next to her.

 Some things never change.




Cheers to 2017! May this be your best year yet!

Wrapping up 2016!

Happy New Year!

We had a great December, jam-packed with LOTS of festivities!

We had many many days of matching sisters!


Chris enjoyed nearly two weeks off work and kicked it all off with some chicken and waffles!

Spent some extra time with this girl who had two plus weeks off school!


We met up with Hudson (a few times!) and had some treats!

I tried to get Sloane and Sydney to take a pic...

My GNO had our annual holiday party with great food, great wine and lots of fun to be had dipping pretzels!


Love these girls! Lifelong friends thanks to Humana!

Then, we had Christmas Eve with grandma and grandpa!

Or, as I like to call it, the "Everything Dory" Christmas for this little lady.


On Christmas morning, we celebrated as a family of four.





Then, we played a little Pie Face!

Got cleaned up and went over to celebrate with nana and grandpa!



And played more pie face!




The girls have been LOVING having sleepovers every night. We had to rearrange them before we go to bed though because they wind up in some pretty funny positions.


Maddie turned six and, while her party will be later, we took her to Chuck E Cheese.



We got to have some fun with the Brindles and the Harbridges!




Hockey wives

What a great break!
