Happy New Year!!! As I said in my last post, we were in Livermore for both Christmas and New Years. It was so fun to finally celebrate the holidays with my family. Jake and I loved to have Aunt and Uncle time with Livi, lil' Will, and sweet Sam. My sisters have done well at having adorably cute kids :) And I get to see more and more of how amazing they are as mothers. I had no doubt they would be...but its sure fun to see them and their beautiful kids. I hope I can become a mother like them, and take after my mom someday.
Kristen was an amazing photographer throughout the week, and even set up a family photo session. She did a great job at taking everyone's pictures....so all the credit for the photos goes to my sister, Kris. But I'm sure she won't mind me sharing a few to show everyone a little about our holiday celebrations.
Sadly, our time together came to a close pretty fast :( Chelle, Josh, and Sam left New Years Eve. The rest of us went to see Saving Mr. Banks that night, and then ran home to celebrate with noise makers in the front yard and toast with some Martinelli's. Our noise making was one of the funnest I've ever had, due to Jake and Jordan's unique New Year's noisemakers. Jake's sounded like a dying Elk...it was hilarious! And Jordan was an extreme expert at rapid spinning of his tin noise maker. He even ran around crazy with it on the front lawn. HILARIOUS...wish I had it all on tape. But we had a blast. Enough of a great time, that some guys walked by the house and asked, "Is this the party?" hahaha. we laughed pretty hard. That's when you know people were jealous of our fun times...
It was a New Years I'll never forget. Especially the fact that I got my first new years kiss, and how fun it was to have it be with my eternal sweetheart. Here's to an AMAZING NEW YEAR! Bring it on!
Looking at these pictures just made my heart swell. I just love you so much! And I love your wonderful family too! So glad you were able to spend time together and make such great memories together.
