Happy New Year!
The girls and I spent our New Years Eve day making party hats
with colorful ribbons and glitter.
We made eleven hats, and each hat had a different style and color.

Another family that we met in church, Matt and Mary,
came over to celebrate ringing in 2006 with us!

We devoured homemade ice cream sandwiches and
apple sparkling cider.
We really rocked the night,
I mean look at the EMPTY gallon of milk
WOW!
