Happy New Year....

and here's to a FABULOUS....

TWENTY-THIRTEEN!!!!

The Weite family had a very relaxing and cuddling type of New Year's celebration going on last night. Aside from the large amount of food we got stuck with after our friends cancelled due to a little sickness (which seems to be hitting everyone pretty hard this year), we had fun ringing it in with each other. Nothing beats a family night of laughter, games, and LOVE! It was both a wonderful way to end an amazing year and a beautiful way to start another.....

New Year's Eve kisses (at 8 p.m.)

 

My Munchkins....

 

Banging pots and pans to ring in the New Year (even if it was the NY New Year's...they weren't going to make it to midnight central time, but they did get to see a ball drop!!!) And, Trey was REALLY getting into the "ringing" in part!!!

 

Hope 2013 is good to you and all those you love. We are looking forward to a year of living life to fullest and enjoying each and every moment. We'll be thinking about our goals for the New Year and hopefully be well on our way to being out of diapers for good!!! Woot-Woot!!!

 

HAPPY NEW YEAR from The Weites!!!!

Ringing in 2012....

Weite style.....was just as relaxing as the entire 2011 Christmas season.

Jason grilled up some steaks and we all played games, laughed together, and had a fun time reflecting on all the great things that happened for our family in 2011. The kiddos even stayed up to watch the ball drop (even if it was the New York New Year extravaganza at 11 pm central time.) They definitely didn't know the difference, enjoyed the heck out of the countdown, and were extremely eager to hit the hay as soon as the on-screen confetti settled.

Tylee and Grandma Marcia all wrapped up in a fun game of Candy Land...thanks for hanging with us for a little bit, Grandma. We always love spending time with you!!!

Trey taking a little game break...

Sequence for Kids is definitely one of our favorites!!!

Trey contemplating his next move....too funny!!! (He's definitely got his Mommy & Daddy's competitive spirit!!)

Ty making sure she keeps three cards in her hands at all times!!! (And, it was soooo cute as Ty pulled her cards and wanted to tell everyone what she got. When we told her to keep it a secret and not tell others what animals she had, she proceeded to *whisper* and eventually *mouth* the animal she drew each time. She's definitely our share-er and gets just as excited for the person who wins as they do for themselves. What a sweetie!!!)

Miss Tay enjoying her first New Year's ever....waving to her Daddy across the table...

As I tucked the three of them in that evening and settled down myself, I couldn't help but smile and realize just how blessed we were in 2011. We've undergone major life changes over the past year and couldn't be happier. Things were challenging at times, but, oh so worth it. We truly are excited to see what the New Year holds for us and plan on living each and every day to the fullest! We are a team and know that we are on this beautiful life journey together...embracing each and every day!!!

Happy New Year from The Weite House!!!

And Let Twenty-Eleven BEGIN!!!

Happy New Year, All! Hope the first 10 hours of 2011 have been great for all of you....here's to 364 1/2 more days of fun, laughter, and hapiness! We enjoyed a fun family night here at home last night...playing Wii, snacking, and being silly with each other. The kiddos didn't quite make it to midnight, but still had a blast celebrating New Year's Eve (even though Tylee Jean had absolutely no clue what exactly we were celebrating)...she doesn't need a reason to have a great time!!

Trey is absolutely hooked on the Wii and actually bowled a 124, wiping out my 1st score!! He even kicked our behinds in Mouse Trap and the Game of Life! (I think those were more about luck, but Jason and I both felt a little lacking in skills after the contests....)

We're working on our New Year's resolutions lists, but overall are super excited to see what adventures 2011 brings and can't wait to welcome baby #3 into this world in 10 weeks. We are definitely looking forward to enjoying each and every day and living in the moment. Sometimes we tend to worry about tomorrow before we stop and enjoy today......

Here are a few shots from last night......

Us all being GOOF-BALLS! Having a blast....

Daddy & His Munchkins....

Me & My two favorites....

HAPPY 2011 from The Weites

Now....BRING ON 2011!!
