New Year's Eve!

We celebrated New Year's Eve at the lake house this year. We were talking about what we were going to do and daddy suggested spending the night at Oak Run, and Bryce got so excited! When the boys woke up on Thursday, Bryce was ready to go! We had some errands to run and we were at the lake house by lunchtime. The boys took their nap there and we just hang out and played all day and night. Mamaw and papa even joined us for some pizza! At one point Bryce said, "This nice hotel. Lake house hotel." He was also very concerned about where the pontoon boat was as he was ready to go for a boat ride!

 Showing daddy pictures from the day before at Discovery Depot

 Of course he had to bring his suitcase full of his farm stuff!

 They had so much fun with this marble set!

 Playing Uno for the first time with Bryce! It was quite a challenge with Godzilla around!

 He was using this marble set to load up his semi and truck. It kept them entertained!

 

He loved this duck and he kept trying to ride it, it was pretty funny!  

A few videos of Blaine playing with the marble set. I was just amazed at how intense he was and how it kept him so entertained! The last video is daddy and Bryce doing some farming. 

Jayla's 5th Birthday!

Jayla turned 5 on Tuesday, December 29th. I took the day off work so the boys and I could party all day with her. Daddy was in a basketball tournament in Erie so he didn't get to tag along. We spent the day going to Discovery Depot Children's Museum, eating lunch at Wendy's, going home to take naps, then heading to Jayla's house for supper and birthday cake. We had such a fun day!

                               We were just waiting on our train

                     We ran into all the Link kids so we tried to take a big cousin picture!

 Just two boys doing some farming

 They just love each other so much!

Blaine ate every last bite of his ice cream cake!

New Front Door

Ever since we bought this house, we knew we needed to replace the front door and it finally happened. Bill and Shane actually started working on it in September so I'm only a few months late on this blog. Well, I guess more than a few, oh well. Of course, they had two little helpers!

Before and After, I love that it lets in more natural light!

New Organized Closet

Man, these blog post titles keep getting more exciting with every week right? I have been wanting to clean out my closet and get it a little more organized. I would really love a big walk in closet, but that's not an option right now, gotta have dreams right? I looked up some ideas on pinterest and Shane helped me make it a reality. It wasn't really a big change, but I really love it and so much easier to get to all  my clothes. All we have left to do is add the shelf back on top and I will have even more room for storage.
