As always these two crazies keep me pretty busy. So far this year we've had surprise packages, a second karate belt graduation, visited the science museum, enjoyed the 70 and 30 degree weather, and are just enjoying life. There's really no better way to do it. We've had some rough moments, but we always get through it. My life is full with these two and I love our insanity.
Each year that passes is a chance to reflect on the year that has passed and to look forward to the next.
2014 was a great year. The kids are a year older, we spent lots of time with family, both kids have become their own little characters, and we have all grown in many ways. I'm thankful for each year that passes. There are so many lessons learned, new things discovered and life that is lived.
I'm looking forward to 2015 and all of the new opportunities it will bring. Life is completely what you make of it. So much is to come, and the rest is right in front of your face. I plan on snuggling my babies a little more, letting them play and fall in love with life.
This year Christmas was a little different. Our family was all separate, this was the first year that B and I were truly separated, it was just different. I thankfully had the kids and we made the most out of the day. Christmas Eve we attended church. I let K come to big church, so he could see it all. My favorite part is singing silent night by candle light. I let K have his own candle and he was in heaven! Then we went home to make cookies and head to bed.

Santa had made his stop at our house that night and the kids were excited to open presents. My living room was covered in wrapping paper! Then we made green waffles for breakfast, charged up batteries, called the family, played outside, enjoyed a nap, and had a really good day.

this bad boy had to be charged......K was excited
here is K running over my legs
once he realized it was ok, he let me run over his legs!
Kicker has continued in his adventures and the kids love it! K wakes up every morning and goes in search of him. When E gets up K makes sure she knows what he did. Its precious! The last part of kicker is that he goes back home to the north pole on Christmas Eve. So he has officially gone home for the year. I'm sure he will make his appearance next year. Until then...
