New Year and new goals!

This post really isn't about the new year, or any huge New Years resolution. I hate the fact that I've let this blog go, and I'm not keeping up with all our families latest happenings - so I'm going to try a new approach. Really, for us as a family more than anything, to look back on and have documentation of pictures and stories. Things we've done as a family, cute stories or facts about the boys, etc. Anyways, here's my start! These will hopefully be short and sweet since long blogpost with tons of pictures just weren't working with my time "off." 

Christmas 2014. We spent it in Texas with family. We were in the middle of a big move. The boys loved seeing and playing with grandparents! Shane and I were overwhelmed with hotels, new houses, old houses, packing, traveling, and cranky little confused boys. I was 15 weeks pregnant with our third sweet baby, and still nauseas and sick at times. We bought our first vehical together, a very practical Honda Odyssey minivan. When we were at my parents we relaxed, ate, enjoyed the farm, watched tv, and some of the men spent time building a huge treehouse out in the woods. Matthew particularly loved talking about (his version of) the Christmas story, which included baby Jesus, pokey the dokey, sheep that went baaa, and a big star! When we were visiting Shane's family in Odessa there was a severe ice storm, which kept us inside unable to leave the house most of the time. The boys were very sick and pathetic, but when we were able to drive we finally found out they hand bronchitis, and upper respiratory infections. We still enjoyed quality time with family, a lot of great food, and fires.
