Catching up with pictures

It has been brought to my attention by my sister and Anonymous (my other sister?) that I did not post in December. I am definitely a failure. Here is my attempt to catch up.

Logan finally got to play some football in September/October 2010. He has been asking for years and I never found one I wanted to spend the money on. It was flag football, which made me feel better. Logan LOVED it and their team had a winning season. He had a great coach who really made it enjoyable. We're hoping to get the same team and coach together next year. Logan is wearing blue shorts, blue shirt, blue flags, and is about to catch the ball.

On Thanksgiving morning, David ran a 5k. I think it was about 10-15 degrees. He is the one in the white and blue jacket. We, his not-so-supportive family, missed his finish because we were in the car warming up. Oops.

Grandpa came to town in early December to visit and shop and spend time with his grandkids. Here he is reading to Lauren while Easton waits patiently for his turn.

Grandma Liz came to town with Grandpa and got to enjoy spending time with the kids. Here she is reading to Easton.

One day the kids built a snowman, then continued to build snow boulders all over the yard. This one got too big and they couldn't roll it any further. When the surrounding snow melted, this boulder was still there, and still is, with some added snow around it.

Here is Lauren thanking Logan for the Zhu Zhu pet.

When Easton made his Christmas list he asked for a snow globe that lights up and changes colors (his grandma has a Halloween one). We figured we wouldn't be able to find one, and had given up looking. Whenever we talked about what Easton wanted for Christmas we downplayed the snow globe, trying to make him forget. He hadn't mentioned it in a few weeks, and I thought he had forgotten about it. Phew. Then David found one! It's even a penguin, and Easton likes penguins. He was very pleased with his gift and he asks me to turn it on every night for a few minutes when he goes to bed.

This is when the kids found out we got a Wii.

Here is Easton celebrating the new year (at 9:30).

The rest of us celebrated a little later and had obviously had too much to drink at this point.

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!
