Happy New Year!!

Hi guys! Ok, I have yet to figure out how to do video and comments on the same blog post. So if you look at the next two posts you will see everything I wanted to include in this one lol!!

Our New Years Eve "party" is going great! We played hullabulloo (sp??) and apples to apples. If you have never played "apples to apples" it is sooooo much fun! It is a simple card game where you pick one (green) card (adjective) and place it on the table. Every player has a handfull of (red) cards (nouns) that they try to compare to the green card. For example...my favorite of the evening...the green card was "cuddly". Bryan and Jessa's team put down a "sharp knives" card. Brandon about fell out of his chair laughing!!!

After dinner and baths the kids had a classic new years eve toga party lol! Here are some pics...

And then the video clips are below... Jessa is sleeping now, Jaden will be soon but Brandon gets to stay up. Good thing we are on Central Time so we only have to stay up until 11:00!!

Anyway, happy new year to you all!!!

Jessa Body Slam Happy New Year

Brandon and Jay say Happy New Year!!

Ice storm

Here are the pics from the recent ice storm that knocked out our power for 4 days!!!


This is the tree in the front yard

Our tree again

The neighbor's tree


I'd say 40% of the neighbors limbs came down


This is by the hotel we stayed at in Salina


Another by our hotel


And another...


This is a light outside of our fav eatery


This is a random house



We were fortunate to be able to stay with Bryan in Wichita for the week in a warm, cozy hotel. When we returned we had 7in. of snow fall! (I did have pics and I don't know where they are) but all is well now! We are happy to be back home!
