New Year's Fun!

Our New Year's Eve posting, and only a month-and-a-half late--not too bad:).

I know I should probably have something profound to say about the beginning of a new year and all of my well-thought-out resolutions. But the fact is, the older I get, the more each year just sort of melts into the next. And as far as my resolutions go; well, like I said it's been a month-and-a-half. I've already forgotten what they were.

I do remember, though, what a great time we had together celebrating the arrival of 2011. We headed to Chuck E. Cheese's in the evening to enjoy some so-so pizza and old fashioned skee ball. The place was relatively empty which was quite nice, and made the outing that much more enjoyable. As a side note, my favorite game was a simulated jump rope activity, which I was totally awesome at;).

On the way home, we picked up a dozen (or so) Krispy Kreme donuts ... but who's counting?? And then stayed up late into the night watching New Year's programs on TV and playing Settlers with Porter and James.

The boys were obviously still very energized, but I gotta' say, Dad was starting to look a little sleepy.

What could be better than being a mom to such amazing kids!

Sometime after midnight, Brooks finally gave up and went to sleep.
And Mae was quick to follow.
New Year's Resolutions?? I may as well take a stab at it. How about this ...
  • Love life, and
  • Love my family
  • even more than I do right now!

Oh, and staying caught up on this blog couldn't hurt either.

I've been meaning to update our blog layout with the new family pictures we had taken in November. But since I'm not going to get around to it anytime too soon, I thought I'd include a couple with this post. Aren't ' they cute! The crazy part, though, is that as much as I LOVE these pictures (thanks to McKenzie Goff), they will already be outdated as of September. Here's why ... Dueck baby #5 Arriving September 24 th 2010
