Happy New Year!!

Happy New Year! I can't believe that this is the year that Mr. Colter will arrive! We rang in the New Year with the Grants at their house. Earlier in the evening we met up with the Rikalos and went to the bowling alley that was rented out by our church. We got there a little late so all the lanes were full, so we all went over to the Grants together. I surprised myself by staying awake until midnight!
The next day, Jess, Mark & the kiddos came over to use Ben's new fire pit he got for Christmas. It was a perfect night for a fire: clear, freezing and snow still on the ground from our random snowfall earlier in the week. We also busted out some fish tacos and Jessie made some salsa from a new cookbook. Delicious!




Here is a pic of our snowy lawn about 3 days post snow fall. Up until yesterday, the hill leading out of our neighborhood was super icy!

Yeah, I can't believe it either. The start of my 8th month. Wowza!
