HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Didn’t think we’d see the New Year at the stroke of midnight, but some neighbors fireworks woke up Carlos just before 12pm and he was up for the next 3 hours. So, we tried to sleep through it but that just wasn’t in the cards. Carlos is officially moving back into the room with Dominic and Dee and I are eagerly awaiting a full night’s sleep!

Here’s the link you’ve all been waiting for…it’s the Field Family whole family picture at the Picture People. It was fun getting us all together to do this, and a picture I just love. My nephew, Luca, didn’t quite cooperate but that’s ok, we all have our moments and now his has been captured on film. It’s funny, too because he’s really a mellow guy and I was sure one of our boys would be screaming and crying in the photo. Enjoy! Hope the link works, the Picture People website is strange sometimes and acts up. http://www.picturepeople.com/viewsharedalbum.aspx?SharedPictureGroupID=362144&ShareKey=6f49f9f66b224b1eab4666ac2252d992

Had a great surprise visit from my friend Stephanie, her husband Dave and their son, Jacob last night. They were in town at her folk’s place and stopped in to say hi. It was great, Jacob is age-wise right between Dominic and Carlos so they all can play together. Carlos was being a twit, though, and didn’t want to share toys. Jacob was jazzed to be somewhere with lots of all new toys and Steph, Dave, Dee and I got to just hang out and chat while the boys played. It was really great!

Can’t believe the Seahawks lost to the Packers (yikes!), that was the first of many games we’ll be watching today inbetween doing some household organization. It feels good to have things done the first of the year, clean sheets and towels, clean bathroom and kitchen, toys organized, etc. That’s a goal for the new year…be organized! We’ll see if we can stick to that one, fingers are crossed.
