We went to the waterpark with Alli and her folks on Sunday. The girls were *so* excited to see each other after the long break because of Christmas & New Years.
The waterpark is pretty cool – they had a great kiddie pool with a slide (see video below) and then a lazy river with a little side pool with a bench all the way around that the girls put a lot of miles on. And they serve beer! Not that I had any but I think Rick was wishing he didn’t have a hockey game later that night.

All by myself
Today was a day of (almost) all by myself. Rick & Mallory ran errands [he has been FABULOUS with giving me some alone time – thank you, hubby!!] so I could scrapbook and grocery shop in peace. I didn’t get much scrapping done because my stupid back started to hurt leaning over the table but I made a little progress. And tonight we were supposed to go to a holiday party at a friend’s house but I am partied out from the past three days and have been going to bed way too late (and sleeping in way too late …
Walking in a Winter Wonderland
We took Cooper on a long overdue walk in the woods again today, that poor dog is so neglected (at least by his pre-little-sister standards), I can’t stand it. And because we have some snow we brought the cameras and the sled :-)
Happy New Year!
We had a fun New Years Eve – we went to dinner with a couple of our friends to my favorite restaurant in Saline and then we hung out with some other friends for a couple of hours (a lot longer than I’d planned on staying awake!).
