NYE 2015

Is it NYE 2014 or 2015? I went with 2015...

Anyhow, we had a blast welcoming the new year in with friends! So excited that Jennifer and Marc (and baby Kate) came to celebrate with us in Dallas!

Just a little throwback to seven years ago...one of our many NYE's together (pre-kids)!

Moving along..This year we decided to switch things up and go out for NYE. We headed to Lakewood Country Club for their NYE celebration and it did not disappoint!

So happy to spend NYE with my sister-in-law!

The guys...minus Bryan

Oh hey look...there he is

Bryan's head kept popping up in the back of our pics

Kevin's sassy girly drink

Everybody gets a sip! Hope no one is sick...

Love this man

Such a fun night out! So happy to ring in the new year with all these peeps!

12 Days of Christmas

After celebrating Christmas with Kevin's family we headed to the arboretum for the 12 Days of Christmas. It was a bit later than we had planned and a bit colder than average BUT we loved it! It was so much fun walking around all bundled up. The kids had a blast with their cousins...and the exhibits were beautiful! We had such a great time!
