JP and I spent morning and afternoon of the eve cleaning. We did a fabuous tag team effort and completely cleaned our house. There is still some organization needed, and some cleaning out of toys left, but I will tackle that when JP goes back to work.
We had both of our families over and provided a "taco bar" for dinner. The boys were excited to play with their cousins, and Emma was happy to prance around in her pretty dress and show off all her new baby dolls and accessories.
At six years old John David is fully able to understand the concept of a new year for the first time. He and Sammy were allowed to stay up. Emma and Carlos were in bed by 10 and both fell fast asleep despite the noise of other kiddos playing. We invited three other young families to join us...so there were four more kiddos over. All the kiddos were up and playing with John David and Sammy. However we put on a movie shortly after midnight so we could enjoy some more adult time with our friends, and they both fell asleep while watching it.
This is a time that I am thankful for all the blessings in my life. A fabulous hubby who loves me unconditionally and supports me in all I do. Four wonderful kids that make me laugh one second, and then test my patience the next. Last but not least...Good health for all!
One of my resolutions for this year is to update this more regularly, so check back for updates!
