Happy New Year

We spent the end of 2011 in Jacksonville. It was wonderful to wrap-up the year with our family and good friends. Every last minute of our visit was filled with fun, smiles, hugs and sharing memories.

Cohen and Henry are lucky to have three sets of grandparents who love them to pieces! We spent two nights at Nana and Pop's house and the other two nights with Granddad and Nona. The boys also played a lot with GG and Papa, who had visited us in Charlotte before Christmas. I think the grandparents were exhausted by the time we had to leave.

New Year's Eve was spent with our friends and family at Jon and Anna's beach bonfire party. It was one of the best parties of all time and definitely an amazing way to ring in the new year...surrounded by people we love! (Fuzzy phone picture below)

The Hummer. Enough said. These boys could have driven around Nana and Pop's neighborhood until dark.

Hendog will be 16 months in two days.

And this Stinka gets sweeter and smarter by the day.

It's funny - Growing up at the beach, David and I never really spent time during the winter months there. With Cohen and Henry, we had to hit the sand daily. And it was beautiful!

The water was still, the sand was chilled, and we had the place to ourselves. Peaceful.

My boys.

We had a hard time keeping the boys out of the cold water.

Happy 2012! I have a feeling this year will be one for the record books.
