Let's Ring in 2012!

Happy New Year from our family to yours! Justin and I rang in the New Year with our good friends Luis & Megan and Bill & Nicole



We began our evening with dinner at Flemmings. Bill and Justin proceeded to believe there were movie stars all around us. And then asked the poor bus boy what he thought. I'm pretty sure he thought they were insane! Needless to say we had an amazing dinner and really fun time!


We then headed back to Bill & Nicoles to eat, drink and be even more merry!








The Three Amigos





The 3 Bonitas



An early tee time in the morning for Luis and poor Justin has to begin the New Year at work :(. Hence the down time on the couch.







Nicole, Bill, Megan and I don't have to work! Whoohoo bring on Taboo and you guessed it!.....



OPERATION! After you've been drinking for a while this game is SO not easy! Megan kicked all our butts since she was the sober one! But when it came to Taboo, Megan I were no match for Bill and Nicole! We killed them! It's okay guys, you have all of 2012 to practice for 2013!





This Dad is So Proud!




Tea officially likes WINGS! So naturally we had to go to Buffalo Wild Wings and eat them all! "Crazy Uncle" Bill and "Beautiful Aunt" Nicole joined us for the event. After, Uncle Bill shared his Super Hero collection with Tea and gave her lots of collectibles to take home! She was in Heaven!

Christmas Day

Christmas Morning at Mom's! Like Mother like Daughter setting up a beautiful table for Christmas Breakfast!
My Family.




Oh Crockett. We love all 90lbs of you!


Grandma opening one of our White Elephant Gifts. She got $50 cash, chili pepper Ho-Ho lights and a lumber jack robe! She does look fabulous in Red!


Justin having some fun with poor Crockett. This Monkey gave Crockett a run for his money!


Tea entertaining Lyla & Sedona. She's so good with the kids!


Great picture ladies! My Mom and her sisters. Best Aunt's Ever!


Sofia enjoying a piggy back ride on Tea's shoulders.


John I wasn't kidding when I said "this is SO going on the blog!" A great gift from my Mom to me but let's be honest. John can pull it off!

Dare I say "The Kids Table?" Haha, you know I love you Mike & McKenna!

McConkey Family Christmas

Merry Christmas from the McConkey Family! Oh how I love sitting at the dining room table! Always so much fun for me to set the table. I'm sure this will get old as time goes on. And I'm sure I'll be switching from my china to paper plates eventually but for now I'll enjoy it!


First dinner then PRESENTS!!! Always a crazy mess but such a good time!



Boys and their toys!


Poor Roxi hiding in her little corner trying to stay out of the way.


Great photo!!


The girls opening their gifts.



This just about sums up Justin's life right here....



Jody showing off her new magnetic board. Gotta love those boutiques! Such cute stuff!



Grandma Jan enjoying Christmas.



Mamaw's Christmas is now complete....She's received the final Harry Potter Movie!


Crockett making an entrance. He hasn't quite grasped the concept of laying down and watching the excitement from one place. So instead he pops up on the back of the couch to see what's going on.




Daddy and his boy!




We love having the Brixey's as part of our family! So much fun and so glad they could come!


Jody will keep warm this year with her new blanket!





It's becoming a tradition to get out the cameras after the festivities as the girls always have their latest and greatest interview to share! As you can see they spent lots of time wrapping empty boxes, putting up Ho-Ho lights and moving furniture to make the event work. If you think this is impressive, you should see & hear their script! Very Impressive!
