January

Bryan grew a beard.  It was a rather magnificent beard that the girls all hated.  They thought for sure he was going to look just like the guys from Duck Dynasty.  "No dad No!  Shave it!"  He eventually did.  I will admit though, I didn't hate it.  I was glad when he shaved it but it was a nice change for a little while.

 This cutie pie started Sunbeams.  She is such a little sunbeam because her birthday is in November but to sunbeams she went.  It has been a little bit of an adjustment.  Lily is so sensitive if ever reprimanded and during primary she decided to show her belly button to which her teacher told her to keep her shirt down.  This was terribly upsetting to little Lily.  To add insult to injury her teacher didn't even bring snacks!  Thankfully Lily is doing great in Sunbeams now and loves going.  She really has the sweetest teachers and little friends in her class.

 Audrey started a creative dance class with her BFF Scarlett.  She has always loved dance but this class is suited so well for her.  She is dancing all day long.  Her teacher is so great and I love the freedom that creative dance gives her.  It makes her very happy and we look forward to her dance recital in the spring to see all that she has learned.

 The weather was nice enough for the girls to often be outside.  This yard has been the best thing for our family.  My girls are constantly outside playing.  Few things make me more happy than watching my girls outside using their imaginations with the little calico cat at their heels.  It is good for my mommy heart.

 We had cousins come up for a fun day.  We went and ate delicious hamburgers, played glow in the dark miniature golf and arcade games.  It was such a fun night.

 This motion game was by far the biggest hit.

 Even Papa played!
