We have had FREEZING temperatures here this year!! I don't think it's gotten above 20 degrees all week! Despite the frigid temps, because Mike had most of the week off, we thought we had to have some family fun, so we went snow-tubing at a close by park. Archie made it down one time, linked to Lucy, but the older kids did 4 before calling it a day.
Another field trip was a viewing of the new Star Wars movie!!! Lucy has already seen it, so she got babysitting duty while Mike, Elliott and I made history.
We celebrated New Year's Eve Hynes family style, as usual. After a birthday dinner for Emery (not pictured...Bummer!!) We played and snacked at Jason and Kristine's house until MIDNIGHT!!! YES!! this year, all 5 of us made it to midnight! It really wasn't that much of a stretch, since the kids have basically been staying up until 11pm every night this week anyway. The
real stretch will be getting back to school hours sleep schedule!! There was football watching, dance video-gaming, and poppers popping!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
This year is going to be great; I can feel it! Starting it off, January promises to be quite an adventure! I was making the calendar for the month, and it is so exciting. We've got:
1. My 37th Birthday, of course
2. Uncle Morgan and Sommer's wedding
3. DISNEYLAND
4. Piano teaching starting
5. Lucy's new volleyball club starting
6. Elliott signing up for baseball
7. Archie's little gym show
Just so we can track the anticipation, here is how the Disneyland countdown chain has changed over the last week!!!! It's getting closer!!
Here we go!!!

It looks sooooooo cold where you are! You guys do make the best of it.
We do not have a Disneyland chain but we are anticipating the trip.
It was fun to have you here for the wedding. We continue to hear from different people how helpful the Johnson's and spouses were. It was great!
Love,
Mom and Dad
