Happy 2012!

Happy New Year to one and all.  2012 Wow!  When I was a kid this seemed so far away and here we find ourselves living it! I certainly hope that it will be a year of love and prosperity.
So I didn't quite make it...just got so busy with the holidays and kids.  It was so great to have them here.  The last few days I have spent catching up on the house and getting things put away until December comes around again. 
We had so much fun baking and getting ready. Then Jayda and Raven arrived on the 21st which really got the ball rolling. We had 3 of the grandangels that night, zero the next, 2 the next, 4 the next few and then back to 2 until Friday, plus Bryon and Chris.  It was wonderful to have them, but the quiet is back and that's nice too.
Christmas day flew by---we had presents first thing.  Then we hosted breakfast for 22.  Then more presents and playtime and dinner next door at 3:00.  We finally came home and to bed around 11:00 making for a long and loving day.
Here are some of the pictures during the last few weeks, enjoy!
