December kicked off with a trip on the Polar Express. We hit up the Mt. Hood Railroad in Hood River. It was a good time with family - sure could have used some booze in my hot chocolate though. Here is Kevin and I on the train. Kaci wanted nothing to do with us. Didn't even sit with us in fact.
The following week Kevin came home with a tree that needed to be cut off the fence line. Yes I will take a free Christmas Tree! A bit scrappy but it still deserved a topless tree decorating session.
Oh at this angle you can even see Kevin's Women in Waders calendar in the background.
Christmas day was perfect. Kaci woke up excited for presents. We then relaxed and cooked a prime rib dinner.
One of her favorite gifts she received from an uncle. Her favorite cargo to haul happens to be her panties and socks. P.S. - these are not the pants I wanted her to wear with that sweater...She vetoed my decision however and wanted these as they were "the pretty ones".
Fast forward to New Years Eve. I think these two pictures tell our story perfectly:
High hopes for an exciting evening filled with food, family and fun!
Then reality sets in. I felt like staying home. After this little nap in the grocery cart, Kaci was able to make it until 9:22 p.m. that night. At that point I noticed she was being very quiet in her room and suspected she had found her new makeup set she got for Christmas. Nope - she had crawled into bed! Kevin then headed out to a party and I watched TV on the couch. Worked for us!
A resolution for 2014? Well I did notice that in 2012 and 2013 I did 21 blog posts each. I think I can beat this. I am going for 25 this year. 2 down - 23 to go!!!
