New Years Fun

We spent New Year's Eve and a few days afterwards at my parent's new home. It is really nice because we have a little more room than their old house. The kids love it there and we do too. We had a nice dinner on Christmas Eve. My brother and his family were here from CA and my sister who lives in my parent's old house was there most of the time too. My younger brother, Mathew was there with his girlfriend Lindsay that night too, so we just missed Emily and her family from TX. We had a lot of fun playing card games, eating, playing the wii, playing the PS3, and watching movies.

Darren trying to play rock band. He did not want to be left out.

Barrett and the kids playing in the snow.

Last time I brought all the snow clothes they didn't use them, so I didn't this time. They had cowboy boots and Carlyn was fine until they got so weighed down with snow that she lost them and stepped into the snow in bare feet! Thank goodness uncle Barrett came to the rescue.

The little girls playing the wii. We had 3 at the house plus Rick's PS3 so there was never a lack of video games.

My parent's house is lovely with lots of light. Unfortunately sunlight is one of Rick's biggest triggers for migraines. So he wore his sunglasses almost the whole time, but still got one the first day. This is Rick getting accupuncture from my brother in law. What a fun way to bring in the new year. He had something like 28 in his body and 6 in his head. It was really great of Dallin to do that but my girls take after me and got a little freaked out. Rick spent most of his time in the closet playing PS3. It was kind of funny. My brother kept asking when Rick was going to come out of the closet :)

The girls got Rick's new shorts and this is what came of it. Too funny!
