When the sledding in the back of your neighborhood is an old ski slope and requires helmets...

365 ~ 2016: Day 359

The annual Christmas Eve pajama picture!  They're never very excited to open up pajamas as their first gift, but this year they were psyched out of their minds about their Santa onesies!

Vacation started today so we headed to the movies in between Christmas deliveries and haircuts!  So now the mad dash to get the rest of the wrapping and baking done before tomorrow!  #christmaseveeve

The boys couldn't wait to highlight their parts in their Willy Wonka, Jr. scripts when they got home today!  David was cast as Mike Teavee and Shaun will be playing Oompa Loompa #5 (which means he gets a small solo!).

365 ~ 2016: Day 345

When your friends from NJ have plans to come into the city for dinner while you happen to be in town, you crash their party and drink lots and lots of pomegranate margaritas!

When you get up and get ready for school without dilly-dallying, you give yourself 10 minutes to spare for a little morning sledding.

365 ~ 2016: Day 326

I've waited a long time for this to happen.  David is FINALLY tall enough to drive the lawnmower!  The mower shuts down when you lift off the seat, so this is the first time he could push the gas and stay in the seat.  He still can't quite push the break all the way down and lock it, but I'm thinking by summer he'll be good to go and my days of mowing are OVER!

Shaun and his Grammy on the dance floor.  This kid closed out the night on the dance floor while his brothers were practically passed out.  Not sure where he got all that energy from!

365 ~ 2016: Day 318

The boys and I at my brother's wedding last night!  So fun celebrating with the bride and groom!
