 My car got in a fight with a curb recently which made for a very long afternoon. 

Belton enjoyed his sticker that the police man gave him, though!

New Year's Day

On New Year's Day, we went to my parents' house for the traditional barbecue, football and family time! My Uncle Glenn and his family were in town from DC for a couple of days! It was so nice to spend a little bit of time with them!

Glenn's first name is Belton, so here are two Beltons!

 Cousins! Matt, Bec and Laura

Aunt Janie, Uncle Glenn, Mom and Dad

New Year's Eve

 We ended 2014 quietly.

Belton got a free ice cream cone in the freezing temperatures.

 He loved having a cone all to himself!

Then we went to dinner at On the Border and came home for a quiet night in. Belton went to bed and Matt and I enjoyed our sparkling cider! 

Here's to another great year in 2015!

Christmas 2014

We had a wonderful Christmas. We even had to wake the kids up at 9:00!

Santa brought Belton some presents! 

 

 Dayton and Claire, too!

 The stockings

 This is  what happens when there are 17 people in the family now! :)

 Dad cooked us a delicious lunch, as always!

 

 We are very, very blessed! It was a wonderful day with family!
