Zooming like a rocket

Joe says, "Whoa!" (These are some pics I didn't have a chance to post yet) All of the little cousins had a jolly good time playing with my dad while he blew up specially designed balloons that shoot around like rockets as they deflate. They even make cool sounds as they zoom about the room.

Patrick wanted a front row view of the rocket show.

Kolbe holds his ears while simultaneously hollering for the continuation of the fun game.

Scott and I on our way our to see the Nutcracker. It was a wonderful Christmas gift from my wonderful husband. I've really been appreciating Scott lately. He's had a very busy and stressful schedule at work, and then, of course, we've all been sick. He's been a trooper, and through it all, we can still make diaper jokes and have fun even in the midst of the misery!
