Happy New Year 2012

A quiet evening at Mema's.for New Year's Eve. The kids loved the fireworks that Daddy bought... as usual!

Beautiful Weather on the Beach

We really lucked out this year for our New Year's on the coast. The weather has been amazing. Will loved his hammock time....

 

And, this afternoon headed to the beach for some lunch and fun.

New Orleans for the Day

We headed over the New Orleans for the day. First, we picked up Christian, and then we went to eat at Mandina's for lunch... yum yum yum! We did some shopping and went to Storyland in City Park. The kids loved it.

Mema took the kids back to Bay St. Louis in the afternoon, and Brian and I went out for the evening. We had a fantastic meal at Muriel's and the went to Frenchmen Street to listen to some music. We had a great night.

Will was so excited to wake up to a table full of birthday presents. As usual, we jumped in the car and headed to Mema's.

 Mema had a cake waiting for the little man. He loved it!

 

The kids loved the new plasma car that Mema got too!

Christmas 2012

This year Ella begged and begged for an XBox. Santa did finally decide to go with it. Santa set it up upstairs and had a present under the tree with some goodies for it. They (and Daddy) love it!

We went over to Janie's for Christmas lunch. Will had begged for a Learning Laptop that he kept seeing on TV. He was not too upset but confused as to why he didn't get it from Santa. But, he was so surprised that Mamaw and Grandpa sent it to Janie's for him!

Christmas Eve

Christmas PJs were unwrapped, and Daddy read The Night Before Christmas...

And everything is ready....
