New look... and new purpose

Hi! Do you like the new look of my blog? It is NOT a new years resolution, but I do want to keep up with blogging more this year. Mostly so I can remember the little details of our life here. So, instead of being mostly about pictures, I will now be blogging about the mundane details of life in Ireland... feel free to ignore my ramblings :) Before I get in to Irish life, here are a few highlights from our time in WI over Christmas:

Our plane was delayed getting in due to the big blizzard on Dec. 11th, but it was worth it to have all the snow to play in...



The girls loved spending time with their cousins

Poor Gabe - I'm sure he will be playing a lot princess dress-up in his life :)

Greta loves being the oldest (and bossiest) cousin on the Kohlhepp side (she is a little lower on the totem pole on the Peters side :)

Greta & Maybelle have a special bond

The girls were thrilled to have a horse ride from Papa & Great-Papa

I love this "sturdy" baby :)

Christmas Eve birthday party for Jesus at Zoey & Grady's house...

Greta was super-excited to be an angel in the Nativity play

This one is not our cooperative one ;)

Our family photo on Christmas Eve

A favorite at Christmas time is lighting the candles on the tree at my aunt & uncles farm
