Happy New Year!

Happy 2011! We brought in the New Year in New Hampshire at Scott's parents' home. We all joined together to celebrate Christmas. We had a wonderful three days there with Nicholas and Sarah Kate's Grammy, Grandpa, Aunt Kris (Scott's sister), Uncle Jim, and cousins Drew and Mia. We really missed having Uncle Andy (Scott's brother), Aunt Tammi, Ella, and Jared and really hope they can make it from Chicago next year! Here are the highlights form the weekend...
Aunt Kris loving her baby girl and our baby boy!

Drew trying to open our gift. First he had to get a ball through a maze to get the clue...
The clue brought him to the freezer to get his cold hard cash, literally! We froze it in ice!!!

Sarah Kate getting a new toy...
Grandpa shooting his son with a toy gun...yes, Grandpa!!!
Aunt Kris playing with Nicholas...
Drew also got a trick money box as his gift from his grandparents. Well, you know you have to come up with creative ways to give a 13 year old cash for a big trip he has coming up!
Aunt Kris and Uncle Jim...
Cutie pie...
This was a hit with Nicholas....of course!
Drew and Mia, such cuties!!
Grandpa and Mia having a blast!

We started a new tradition...New Year's Day Bowling!

Nicholas loved resetting the pins. Notice Nicholas' face as he had his first sledding accident. He and Mia came down sideways after hitting a jump and his cheek slide across the icy snow.
Sarah Kate loved the pink one...
