New Year's Eve and Ben's Birthday

On New Years Eve we went to a fun 'kids' party with our friends; we did a countdown and party at 7:00! Elizabeth did not really understand why people were so excited but it was still fun.  Then we had a get together with some of our friends.  It was a fun evening. 

The next day was BEN'S BIRTHDAY!! We had so much fun with a donuts and chocolate milk breakfast, sledding and of course, BEN!!   We got a lot of snow since Christmas and it was fun to re-introduce Elizabeth to the fun of the snow.  We went sledding on the hill across the street from us (it's really small) and after some tough runs, getting the snow packed down, we got going pretty fast.  Ben even tried his hand at snowboarding, on the sled, down the hill- which worked until the stop at the end.  

 

 

 We had steak for Ben's birthday dinner, of course, and had fun spending the evening with his parents. We are so lucky to have such a wonderful guy in our lives! Happy 32nd Birthday Ben!
