Last weekend we were fortunate enough to join Mike's Mom and Step-dad, down in West Palm Beach, FL, for some R and R. Unfortunately, they were having record low temperatures for part of our stay. We did get a couple of days of sun, and not so much wind, which made it feel warmer. It didn't matter, however how cold it was, the pools were heated, so the kids were still able to swim and that was all they cared about.

Nativity

This year for our Christmas Eve program, we had the kids reinact the nativity. It's the first year that they've done it, so Braxton and Hailey were a little confused, at first as to why they were wearing a costume. But once I explained, they were excited. Hailey was the Angel, Kira was Mary, Braxton was Joseph and Noah was a sheperd/wiseman. Brady was a little too wiggly to be baby Jesus, so we settled for a doll.

Happy New Year's
Another "low key" New Years, this year. We spent it at home with the Sampsons and the Crosbys. We ate, played games, ate, and ate some more.
This year instead of watching the "ball drop" as we do every year....Mike wanted to check out another show that was on ESPN. I guess every year in Vegas they have some kind of stunt show on the strip. So we watched a guy flip his truck 360' and another guy jump on his bike and land of top of an attraction I think it was 100 feet high or something like that, then he jumped back off. Very exciting.....
The princess turns 4!
Unfortunately for Hailey, her birthday is 3 days after Christmas day. By the time Christmas is over Mike and I are both done with the celebrating.....this year I was in bed the day before her birthday, passing a kidney stone, so we got a little sidetracked. Thank goodness we were able to quickly decorate the kitchen the morning of her birthday before she went down to see. We also promised her a party at Chuck e cheese, which was supposed to happen today, but seeing as I'm in bed once again with more stones, that has been postponed.
We did have a birthday cake for her and she opened her presents. A few weeks before Christmas she saw a disney princess vanity that she absolutely fell in love with. And she would tell everyone that was what she wanted for her birthday.
