wrapping up 2007

now i know why there are less pictures of the second child compared to the first. it's because with two kids, each parent is wrangling one so there is no one to take the pictures. i think that in 2008 you will see more self-portraits of us. :)

we headed out to first night again to ring in the new year with the kids. lucas has been sick these last few days, so he was not up to his usual run-amok self tonight. i think he had the most fun when ginny brought him a balloon sword and he and carter ran around wielding their new weapons in the air. emma was her sweet little self tonight. she even let me get her face painted with a pink heart to mark the festivities of the evening. i didn't get a picture of her and her painted face, but here are some of her doing a cake walk with allan. the other picture is of lucas and carter enjoying their prize at the end of the walk. they displayed some cool fireworks as an end to the evening (at 7 o'clock for the kids!). 2007 was an altogether great year for us. we'll wait to see what God has in store for us in 2008! happy new year!
