HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

We must be getting old when the thought of babysitting grand kids on New Year's Eve sounded like the PERFECT thing to do!!

Jill's decided to come down over the New Year and wanted to see friends so I offered to babysit!!  They came in on Thursday and after a look at the new house, they headed to friends' and we ate pizza with the kids!

Papa is always playing a game with them while they eat!!  He tells them to eat different parts of his body and then pretends like he can't eat - Here both Parker and Aleah told him they were eating his hands so he decided to eat with his feet - pretty funny!!!

 We had a great evening together and were in bed by 10:15 - nope, didn't watch the ball drop OR stay up to see if we could see the fireworks over Pikes Peak - I KNEW we wouldn't see them as it was snowing lightly when we went to bed!!

It was 20 below on New Year's Day morning!!  The kids thought it was pretty cold in the house till we got it warmed up!!

 We did a variety of things on Friday and the kids loved doing the stickers to make ornaments!


Jill and Robby arrived back at our house around noon and that afternoon, Jill and I went into Woodland Park to see the movie, "Joy".  We both enjoyed it!!

It was a nice relaxing day and we watched a movie that evening after we got the kids to bed.  Jill's headed into town to see Robby's mom late Saturday morning and it was back to work for Glenn and I - got to keep plugging along on this new house!!
