Well, the end of 2011 was upon us last night, Kendra and Kyra invited us out to bowling, where we were joined by my parents. We played just over an hour, nothing major but the kids seemed to have a blast doing it.

Full set of pictures here.

Christmas this year was a special one again, since we had our youngest Allie, celebrating her first Christmas. Couple with Sydney being old enough to actually understand the whole thing (as in she is getting presents!) and it was a recipe for being a great one.

We were lucky enough to have Santa stop by on the 24th to visit. Turned out really well.

In the end, the presents were great, the kids were thrilled, and everyone involved were spoiled, and fed very well.

The full set of pictures are available here.

A few highlights below.

Not going down without a fight (Sleepy Sydney)

My mother and niece were over for the afternoon, so Sydney played hard. When they left, I asked her if she was tired. She said no. Dont believe everything you hear.

I wasnt feeling well today, and spent the afternoon sleeping on my couch, so imagine that I couldnt sleep very well when the time came. Anyhow, I just finished uploading some proofs for a client and was ready to turn in, but I HAD to put one from this set up. The picture speaks for itself!
