New Year's Day 2009

We traveled to Waco on December 31 to spend New Year's Eve with my Dad, Cory, Andrea, and Emma. We had a good time. Not quite the wild party that most people were participating in, but what can you do when you have little ones. We ate way too much food and played games. The next day almost everyone slept in and we watched movies. By the time everyone was dressed and ready to go(around 3:30 pm) we decided we needed to get out of the house. We headed to the park(the one I grew up going to), where we met Memema and her little one. It was really nice to play at a new park. Cory took over charge of holding Cash's collar(and dropped it several times). Cash wrapped the cord around me several times(secretly he was trying to trip me). We had a good time playing. Cailyn of course made some friends and played on the merry-go-round. She had a good enough time that she didn't want to leave.

Memema's Cash-he was so excited to be in a new place and explore. This was the only one I could get of him he was so fast.


Jessica riding her pony, she loved it.

Cailyn taking a few seconds to pose for me.


Jessica swinging, her favorite activity at the park.

We then headed over to Casa Ole for some yummy mexican food(anyone who has ever been there knows that we go for the green sauce more than anything else). After we had our tummies filled to capacity and then some, we loaded up all of our stuff and headed back to Mineral Wells. We were so tired, it made the trip difficult, but our beds were calling our names and we obliged quickly.

There is no better sound in this world than that of children's giggles.

Happy New Year!

How wonderful it would be for us to be able to go to the park now! Landon keeps saying "can we go to the park when the snow melts?" I say yes and am thinking in about 3 or 4 months. Cute video too! Miss you guys.

I remember that park. Memories! I love merry-go-rounds. It's too bad you can't find them at parks anymore.
