The Richardson Trio Help Ring in the New Year

We were soooo grateful to have Katie and Joe spend a few days of their precious Midwest visit with us.  We got to celebrate Katie's birthday AND New Years with them.  We hadn't seen Isabelle in 6 months and boy had she grown into such a fun, interactive little girl in that time.  The snow storm kept us housebound, but that didn't stop us from having a ball.  I think I have spent more New Year's Eves with Katie than without in the course of our relationship (16 years now!) and I hope it stays that way:)

Birthday Italian take out for Katie
These two were passing a bowl back and forth and it was really cute.

Birthday cake time
Present exchange with the kids

Luke loves his new "Busytown" rug



Katie and I felt that mealtime was never-ending.  As soon as you got them fed and cleaned up it was time for another meal!

At least we have a helper with the clean up


The guys may have been more into Luke's dominos than Luke was.

New Year's Eve portraits
Those crab legs are climbing out of the pot to pinch us!

Surf and turf feast with Ben and Linda…yum!

"All done!!"





With a little more cabinet and ceiling this picture would have been perfect.

Fireside chats

Snow didn't let up for the holiday, we were glad we stayed in!

Happy New Year!!

Fascinating

Soaking up our time together

Indoor tent was a big hit
