Happy New Year!

New Year's Eve, we had a family Mario Kart tournament and made our traditional Pigs In Blankets and breaded shrimp dinner. We celebrated with the kids for East Coast New Year (9 pm our time) by watching the New York City ball drop on tv.

On New Years Day we went to the Washougal Waterfront trail to ride bikes, hike, and throw rocks in the Columbia River. We also got chicken wings and watched the Rose Bowl.

Merry Christmas!

We had a wonderful Christmas this year. Thanks to all our friends and family for the gifts, calls, texts, and love. We missed you!

Visiting Santa
The kids had a visit with Santa at the Camas Hometown Holidays this year. We went out to dinner after seeing the big man.

On Christmas Eve we drove around town to look at Christmas lights. Then the kids set out cookies & milk for Santa and a carrot for the reindeer.

Christmas Morning
The kids woke up to presents and stockings from Santa! They were so excited. I made my traditional homemade cinnamon rolls. We built Lego sets, played video games, and ate a yummy dinner that Matt cooked on the grill. It was a magical Christmas filled with fun!
