Happy New Year!

Our family was given RockBand for Christmas! It has been so much fun for all of us.

On New Year's Eve, the weather was gorgeous. Alex is walking everywhere now!

Our house was full---- 23 people in all!




At 12 o'clock we rang in the New Year with poppers!

Shortly after, I went to bed. I hear that the kids went to bed at 2 am. As John went up to bed, he told the older kids they could stay up a little bit longer if they cleaned the living room and did the dishes. I woke up to a half way decent house. :)

Some of the kids conked out! Must have been all that Sparkling Apple Cider!

This morning, John and his brother Jeremy took 14 kids to the snow. Seems to be a tradition around here. I am at home with Rachel, Alex, and Dennis.
Happy New Year Everyone!

I always have to smile when I read of your kids "going to the snow". How about I send some to you?

We had a quiet New Year celebration with only five of us. It was nice.

What an inspiring family you are!
As an adoptive Mom to a child with FAS, I find your sense of fun and celebration heart-warming.
I use movement therapy techniques with my child to calm her or bring on the fun, depending on the circumstances.
