Ok so I'm only six months behind... let's see what I can remember!
We celebrated Christmas with both sides of our families in January thanks to the flu!

| Giggles with these two |
| Playing cards |
Later in January we went to my parents to celebrate Christmas. My mom planned a road rally for us all... sadly my team lost, but we had fun! Here's a few of the photos:
| My team with our snowman mascot (I forget his name, but it was awesome) |
| Reading Dr. Suess books |
| Photo with a bride and groom (thanks Sue and John!) |
| Cousins |
| My mom gave each kid a maze that has to be solved in order to get the cash inside - kept them busy! |
| Stairball lives on |
| Mom's dessert game was on point |
Ben and Evie both played I9 basketball this winter, which was a simple 6-week thing. Ben absolutely loved it, Evie not so much. She had one girlfriend with her on the team, and otherwise it was all boys that were one to two years younger... so not a great fit, but the two girls dominated!

Ben turned 7 in February! We had a family get together and also a class party at a local bounce house.
| My baby is growing up! |
| Family! |
| Ben basically lived in his army gear for several days thanks to Aunt Allison and Uncle Bobby |
| Ben's big gift was a guitar - he's taking lessons and doing great! |
| Seeing Avatar - he was obsessed with these movies for a while |
| Bouncing boys |
| Jamie led the kids in a kaleidoscope craft |
| We did a musical chairs style book exchange instead of presents (because we don't have space for 20 gifts at home!). |
| Maggie continues to love archery, check out these bullseyes! |
