What a great time had by all at Jen's Mardi Gras Party! She is truly a Louisiana girl. She had green and purple everywhere and even had a king cake shipped in for the party. Lauren got the baby, which means you are the one who is having the next party! We went out after and had a great time! Thanks Jen for the awesome party! 
If only we had more time. We had a great time out at Honeymoon Island. We saw some cool fish that squirted ink out. They were having a ball playing in the water and walking up and down the wall. Man is it work to get all four looking and smiling at the same time!
Greg is such a fun person. We love going to Busch Gardens and riding rides with him! We all have our favorite rides. The girls love Cheetah Chase and we love the roller coasters, especially, Sheekra. Greg loves to play with the kids and he takes the oldest girls to school every morning. He is an excellent provider but he leaves work stress at work. He is such a hard worker and does what ever it takes to get the job done. He has unbelievable patients. If only I could bottle it up! He is a great cook and grills a steak better then any I have ever had at a restaurant. He is the smartest person I know, not just anyone can be an actuary and still have common business sense!I think this is how he landed his recent promotion to a VP! He is even a yummy snack for blue eyed monsters!
We have had lots of company over the holidays. Greg's sister and family and parents came before Christmas for 5 days. We went to MOSI and Busch Gardens with them. My niece and my parents came in just after Christmas. We also had a visit from Greg's cousin and his wife and 3 kiddos. All the kids had a great time seeing each other and played non-stop!
What more could a girl ask for? They have been having so much fun lately and keeping me hopping! G and E had a winter recital this week-end. They just light up and preform so well up on that stage. They say they don't get nervous at all. That they just get excited. Ella also just finished another round of gymnastics with her BFF. Friday night Waterchase had the Holiday party. The girls got to see Santa, decorate cookies, make a craft and watch a movie. It was great to see a lot of our neighbors. D had her holiday party today. Monica brought all sorts of fun crafts for them to do. They had lots of fun playing in all the glitter! They cut out sandwiches with cookie cutters.
