Random Life Pics

 
First up- Game night with the Dixon clan and Noah's 5th birthday party!
- Just a last minute mini bash




A Great Friend makes the best nemesis.


More Video cuteness later in the week. . .
 Here are the twins tearing up the living room and having a private dance party.

 
All of the boys weirdly happy at once- oh wait, I think that's ice cream they are eating.

 Lucy wearing the twin's diaper- a bit too big but it worked :)

Oh where to start. . . How about BUBBLE WRAP!

So one of my favorite presents this year was the small section of bubble wrap I found in my stocking. A note was attached in Santa's handwriting (which has an uncanny resemblance to my Dad's). It said "this will be self explanatory later". Later that morning the boys and I were surprised with a new Dog! His name is Cyrus and he suffered (as did we) from his severe case of Happy Tail. It took me a long time to get to know my dog. For most of the day I just knew him as a black blur with a with a flash of white at the tip of his tail. I assumed he had a white spot. Not so. It was actually a band-aid. The first of dozens which he would eventually ingest.







Blogs to Share! More bloggy fun with the Despains!

Mark has decided to take his journaling blog style. This is the "sticking to it" part of an effort to follow his/our New Year resolutions to simplify and try to choose the best things in life. It talks about our days and his thoughts. I've already learned something about my husband that I didn't really know before- he makes for a good read!
