We celebrated New Year’s Day with a meal of dips!  Taco dip, a cheese ball (roll), Nacho cheese dip, tortilla chips, and shrimp with cocktail sauce.

It was a great day to stay inside…

play with the new Lite Bright…

and read books.

I have a new helper in the ironing department!…

A tea party in the sink…

We have become great friends with a family on our street, and now our kids are playing together about once a week.  James and Anna love these two and we are thrilled to have someone just up the street we can swap kids with now and again.

Our big news…James came home with his first report card!  He’s doing an excellent job in Kindergarten and we are so proud of him!  Kenny and I were thrilled about this milestone and plan to celebrate James’s efforts later in the week with dinner out.  Great job, James!
