We got back from Christmas and immediately had a fun night with the Williams. A little sushi and a little play time with our new presents.
{i think its so sweet whenever griffin and ella pair up}
We also had a fun visit with Mike's parents (Grandma Peggy and Grandpa Bob) and then with Mike's sister Shannon and our niece, Mason. Their visits crossed over for a couple of hours, so we all piled onto the couch and got a Brown-Brown-Bailey photo.
It was really fun to have Bob and Peggy here for a few days. Bob and Mike went on their usual rounds to Dick's Sporting Goods, Circuit City, Trader Joe's etc and Peggy and I rearranged all the furniture in the downstairs of my house. We were all in heaven. :)
One of the things I was looking for in the rearrange was a spot to put a big coffee table/game table. I want a space where we can all play Sorry!, Guess Who?, Battleship, Rummy-Qube.....I'm a girl that loves game time. :) We found the perfect table at one of my favorite local shops and the kids started playing games there IMMEDIATELY. Mission accomplished!
{Miles' victory dance and Mason's irritation over it crack me up in this photo}
We spent New Year's at the Williams' House and it was MUCH fun. The kids (9 boys, 2 girls) all ran around together while we adults played a fun game. We also had AWESOME food and some hilarious rounds of some wii dancing game (we don't have it, so I can't recall exactly which one it was)
{ella and mason had an instant connection}
{i read about this game hours before the party. the person next to you writes the name of a famous person on a sticky note. you put the sticky note on your forehead and try to guess who you are. it was HILARIOUS and much fun.}
{a little movie time}
{and a little dancing...this game is now on my 'need to own' list}
A great way to wrap up 2010 and ring in 2011!!
