2011 Year in Review

AT has continued his piano playing this year - and is getting better all the time!

B (aka GW) has enjoyed playing basketball in the front yard and in the rec league.

CP participated in his first art show and is planning on doing more next year.

DF has enjoyed learning to be a mom to six kids.

Everyone is looking forward to spending lots of time at Disney in 2012!

Friends are being found by the handful at our new address.

Grandpa is fully recovered (?) from his stint in the hospital and from kissing the concrete.

HJ finally started losing teeth this year.

I can't believe this year is almost over!  It has gone so fast.

JA took his first overseas trip, saw snow for the first time and is taller than Mom!

Krispy Kreme donuts have appeared a little too often around our house.

Learning has been a primary focus for all of us this year.

Moving in December is something I don't want to have to do again.

Now we hear Chinese spoken regularly in our home by all 6 kids!

Often describes laundry and grocery runs!

Prayers were answered that allowed us to adopt B (GW) before his 14^th birthday.

Quiet is hard to find at our house.

Roller skating has been a fun event for everyone.

SG is growing tall and thin. (see above picture!)

TJ is loving anything sports related.

Unless God shocks the socks off of me, we're done at six.

Vacant sits our old house- but hopefully not for long.

Water, water!  We still spend lots of time at the ocean.

X-rays were not needed again this year. A CT scan for Grandpa, but no X-rays.

Yes, Hambone is still with us – he is 18 yrs old!

Zzzzzzzz! Is happening a lot more now that we have two teenagers in the house.
