Happy Birthday, Faye!  To celebrate, I took Faye out to dinner at Der Dutchman, and we took Kaitlyn to see the new Mary Poppins movie after Christmas break.  It was a wonderful movie!



We stopped to visit Uncle Tom and join the Carter's Christmas party on our way to spend Christmas with Devon's family in Stoughton.  Pictured above with our kids are my cousin Vickie's kids and the baby belongs to my cousin Tim and his wife, Ann.

Happy New Year!  Thanks to some Ann of Green Gables and Star Wars, these three made it to midnight!


The girls spent the next evening enjoying the Columbus Zoo Lights.
