We seem to be missing a few...there were five total kids and they get along so well! It's sweet. =) and, of course, not a single picture of the adults...we were all there together and we all looked fantastic to celebrate 2011.We ATTEMPTED a quasi-sleepover with Elise and Jackson... which consisted of two hours of Elise chatting away and poor Jackson trying SO HARD to go to sleep on the top bunk. Eventually, we moved him over to the room and I think Jackson was asleep before his dad closed the door...
Regardless, the adults had yummy Japanese food, enjoyed some homebrew and great conversation. We're sooo thankful for our friendship with the Janney family!!
Elise and Ainsley have started trying to dress like 'twins' and it's precious. We don't have many matching outfits for them, but they've been creative about it. Ainsley actually jumps up and down yelling "We TWINS NOW, WE TWINS NOW..." . =)
Ainsley, who has a deep love for accessories, found a bag of Summer Stuff in the closet. She wore the hat/sunglasses combo for the next three days and was SO proud of herself. It was freezing outside and you can see snow in you look closely. Oh yeah, they were locked out again and dancing to get back inside...hahaha.
Elise turned FIVE (how did that happen?! I swear she was 2 last month...augh!) during the first week of January and she loved being the center of attention for a couple days. I'll put pics up from her party in the next blog, but this was the actual BIRTH-DAY celebration at home with just family.
I think that's a "5" candle in yogurt...whatev, she was happy. =)
The next morning, we woke up to THIS:
Our awesome middle-school neighbor (and babysitter-extraordinaire!) had decorated the street in front of our house... Elise was BESIDE HERSELF excited and they danced all over for about 15 minutes...and then had to come in for hot chocolate- it was COLD out there.I love this shot of her. Gorgeous.
