New Year's Eve weekend

We were so excited that some of our favorite people were joining us for NYE this year. The Jazayeri's and the Taylor's! We started the fun evening with cake making. Jenny brought down a recipe for a cake that's dairy and egg free for Cameron and the girls pitched in and got right to work...

Isaac got up there and helped too, when the girls would let him of course. :)

Lots of fun and learning in making a cake. I can't say it turned out to be the best cake we'd ever made, a bit chewy but very tasty.

Then it was out front for some fun! Ty still won't ride in his jeep, but the girls sure enjoy it!

A little dress up time!

Such great friends!

And some more wonderful friends. Wow, can you believe we've known each other for over 30 years?! Crazy! Nothing breaks the bond and it just gets stronger. :)

The next generation of strong bonds! These kids are so goofy. They love throwing the pillows from the couch into the middle of the floor and jumping on them.

Even cutie Cam got in on the fun!

After a wild night of board games, some food and drink and watching the ball drop at midnight, the next day we hung at the house and let the kids play. After us girls popped over to my mom's house down the street for a glass of wine, we game home to some demolition. Garrett ripped down the back fence in our yard and this was the last piece remaining. We all got a shot at smashing it. How stress relieving!



I missed catching Leanne, she took her turn first. But we all felt stress free after this!

I love this picture. All three of them were having such a fun time in the bath together, and such three different personalities!

By the end of the second night, we were all pretty spent, so the kids enjoyed some Yo Gabba Gabba in my bed.

Look at Isaac's sweet smile, so cute.

Awww, the peace and quiet that TV brings. :)

It didn't take a few minutes to turn the peace and quiet into wrestling! What a fun weekend with our wonderful friends. ;)
