Happy New Year!

After the Harlem Globetrotters we hung around the house. We decided to lay the kids down at their normal time. Yaya had bought us some poppers (really they were for Dad from the kids for Christmas). Trouble like the poppers: Dynomite didn't quite get it, despite her blog name:

Backpack could care less:

I atleast thought it was fun:

Travis was the picture taker, in case you were wondering where he was. After the kids went to sleep we played our new game Killer Bunnies. 5 minutes before midnight we flipped on the TV, watched the ball drop then continued with our game. Does anyone else think Dick Clark looks the same now as he did when we were kids??

Every year we pull out our goals journal. Each page is dedicated to one year. On the front of the page are the family goals, on the back are individual goals. This is the 6th year we've used this method. The first few pages are the long-term family goals, i.e. live on the moon.
