Celebrating New Years with friends and other fun things

We have really enjoyed getting to hang out with family and friends a lot since we moved back to the states.  So we kept up the trend for New Year's and visited with friends who visiting their family just down the road.  Two years ago we met up with them in Bali and this year in Alabama! 
While the girls had a long break from school we took many day trips and overnight trips instead of one big trip.  We enjoyed getting to explore the area we live in and see all the many great cities around us.  On the yucky days we did lots of crafts indoors and even found an indoor pool to keep us entertained for a few hours. 

Craft fun - making new paintings for the bathroom

Smiley kept up with her love of yellow and smiling

The new décor in the bathroom - very fitting

Ice Skating in Alabama with the Dunn family

We all traveled to Alabama to visit with friends and then met back up at our house for a few last days of fun!
