Happy New Year and The Start of Our 2014

We aren't big on New Years celebrations, but I was excited about Garrett's time off and time we could spend as a family. We got a few hats and some LOUD noise maker toys, but that was the extent of our New Years festivities. Maybe when they are teenagers we will go out. lol. 
We are excited to see what 2014 will bring to our family of 4. I'm sure lots of new adventures will come our way and I'm ready to do them as a family. So far it's been pretty great. The weather has kept us home bound and cooped up for awhile, but we have been taking advantage of all the fun things we (the kids) got for Christmas and have been entertaining ourselves. School has started back and I'm sure the weather will warm up soon so we can get back out to our fun little activities. Bring it, 2014, Let's see what you got!

Took a little zoo trip during Garrett's time off. The zoo never gets old for us and we have been a lot this year.

New Year's eve we took the kids to the park.

Oakley loved the fresh air and being warm in daddy's jacket.

I promise they thought their New Year's "getup" was fun. Ha

This is my hope for 2014. Lot's of sweet sibling memories like this one. Playing so sweetly together. One discovering things for the first time and one stepping into the proud role of big sister showing him the ropes.
