Where has a month gone?

This past month has flown by. From Cooper's birthday to celebrating the birth of our Christ, I have had limited Internet access and even more limited time to actually blog. A new goal (resolution of sorts) will be to blog at least weekly.

So, here's a recap of our month:

The boys and I had professional pictures taken for the first time ever. (Wasn't as bad as I imagined.) The boys did great, despite the wait and the timing, and I was SO pleased with the pictures. I, of course, spent more money that I had hoped, but we were able to share a lot of pictures with friends and family. Here are a few I didn't get prints of:

Cooper turned 3 on December 17th! He and I made birthday treats for daycare the Wednesday before and he shared them with his friends on Thursday.

He spent the day with his dad at Chucky Cheese and getting spoiled. Friday evening, I held a birthday party for him at our house. Those in attendance were: Grandma Evelyn, Grandma Pauline, Grandpa Tom & Grandma Teresa, Uncle Brandon, Josh and Keeley Hinde & Jill Detweiler, Rob Detweiler, Dan, Jolene, Lisa, & Troy Detweiler, Ronnie & Arlene Weber, Jayden Hanson. We had maidrites, pasta salad, a veggie tray, chips, and cake & ice cream. What a blessing to have friends and family together to celebrate! Cooper's favorite gift was his tow truck from Grandma Evelyn. (And yes, I promise not to quit my day job to start a cake decorating business!)

Christmas came and went with several celebrations. We attended church on Christmas Eve EVE and then the boys got to open one present. SURPRISE! Matching jammies! Christmas Day with spent at Grandpa Tom & Grandma Teresa's with Aunt Joni & Uncle Randy and "the cousins" and Uncle Brandon. We also saw both the Watson's & Popken's extended family.

God was faithful in 2010 and we look forward to His blessings in 2011!
