Matt's 33rd Birthday

We had a picnic in the back yard after church
Matt worked on a new bow for the girls who broke the first one he made
Then we wen to the park and flew kites and played frisbee


He opened a present at the park so we could play with the pocket disc




And of course the required German Chocolate cake

We hope you had a great day.  
We love you Matt!!!

New Year's

Our little trip to Austin




We swam at our hotel, twirled under a giant tree made of lights, ate cookies, played at the park, and rode a train with friends.  Happy 2014!

Odds and Ends

Here are a few more pictures we took in December


How do you eat a cucumber? 

One afternoon we made some sparkly snow dough out of cornstarch and oil




We also met up with Santa at the Zoo.  We ate cookies and rode on a train with him.
Instead of playing in snow in our front yard, we hung out in just our jammies and blew bubbles.

Christmas 2013

What fun!

Tired Matt?
 

 My new shoes, love them.

 Carlee has colored everyday since Christmas morning with new gel pens in her cool coloring book.
All the fun didn't just wear Matt out.
 

We Skyped all morning with my family, ate yummy food, napped and ended the day with a drive around to see Christmas lights. 
We didn't have time for a campfire in the back yard Christmas night, so we did that the evening after. Things got really messy with Dani and the toasted marshmallows. 
We went on a little trip to Austin for New Year's, pictures coming soon as well as pictures of our trip to Enchanted Rock for Martin Luther King day so stay tuned!
