New Year's Eve

The kids were BUSY on New Year's Eve. They took newspaper, scissors and tape and locked themselves into my parent's downstairs bathroom. The result was this. . . .

It was hard to get this picture of them because they thought there was "still work to do." I think that's when the adults told them they had done enough :)

Some "in progress" pictures.

In addition to making the chain, the kids had fun playing games. Breckyn & Brynna each got a new Nintendo DS and Garrett already had one. (Brady has since decided he would like one too - good thing he has a bday coming. . . .)

And the Rowley's brought their Wii. Brett thoroughly enjoys the Wii. Every other word was "Can I play the Wii??

And they all played Operation. Another game on Brady's bday list!

While the kids were doing this, we were playing "Pitch" and Scatterglories. I wasn't sold on learning a new card game (it usually takes me far too long to catch on), but it was FUN!
