 Reagan was content to watch Cooper handle the fireworks

New Year's Eve 2011

We had a relatively low-key New Year's Eve Day ~ Greg went into work and the kids and I played all morning.  Cooper took his first nap of the week and Reagan "rested" in her room for about an hour.  Reagan and Cooper each got belated Christmas gifts in the mail from Mamaw & Papaw.  For our evening festivities, we had a small gathering with our core life group members.



What could it be?

 a chore chart!

 He repeated over and over, "I need one of these!"

 What did Reagan get?

 Cooper loves Pillow Pets

 but, Reagan wanted to keep it all to herself!

 We had a delicious pot luck meal of ham, green beans, mashed potatoes, corn casserole, squash casserole, and plenty of desserts

 the boys watched Star Wars

 we lit a few sparklers

 Cooper and Eden played really well together

 he was her chauffer

 Reagan played on her Leap Pad

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
