First of Many Updates

I know, the point of a blog is to actually update it. Unfortunately that hasn't happened since September. My how time flies. So I'll start with Christmas, and go from there. I have a lot of pictures to share, and hopefully will get those up within the week. We are planning for Sarah's 5th birthday party this weekend, which will be a "Cake Challenge" party. She is really excited and I am excited to see what kind of creations the kids make.

Christmas this year was nice and quite for us. My parents came to visit the week after, but as for the day of, it was just us. The kids got 2 toys each as well as some books. Andrew is really into Legos and got a couple of sets of those. Sarah wanted a My Little Pony that has a diaper (which I found for an awesome deal on Amazon right before Christmas), and Elizabeth got a little people alphabet toy which I found on Ebay. Patrick and I didn't really do gifts because we got some big new appliances before Christmas and figured that was good enough. Enjoy the pictures!

Christmas Eve

Right after we decorated the tree

Aunt Michelle (Patrick Sister) sent them each a Buckeye Mascot that sings the fight song. It was a huge hit, and they were played the whole game on New Years.
