happy 20-10!

this last new year's eve was one of the best new year's eves i've had in a long time i think. dust and i left beckam at home with the grandparents and took off for a little date night :)

we hit up firestone for a yummy dinner and then topped that off with licorice and popcorn at the movies with dust's parents. we LOVED sherlock holmes, and let's be honest....it really doesn't get much better than theatre popcorn and a good flick with your husband!

 

we came home to my parents waiting for their new year's eve party to begin, and we got things going with a little ROOK! love that game, and just kicking my parents' butts would have been good enough, but we decided to truly ring in the new year with a little cork popping bubbly on the front porch. as you can see, that quickly turned into my dad offering to pay dust $20 to jump into our big snow drift shirtless! haha and we poor students don't turn down free money!

 

 

we hit the hay after dust warmed up, and it was just a really nice low key fun evening with good food and good company - exactly what i look for in a new year's eve party!

here's a picture that i took as we were venturing out to stirling for new year's day dinner. the roads weren't so great as you can see (if you can even see the road cuz we sure couldn't!). love good old windy as ever southern alberta!

i have to include a recent picture of the little guy for the grandparents of course , so here is his new favorite thing. as you might notice, he not only loves playing in his blow up ball house, but he loves standing up in it in order to tip it over. it's so cute to watch him try to find a way out once it's tipped, and he loves making a mess with all of those balls! he's just pretty cute in general these days :)

We had some friends over a few nights ago and played Rook. We had so much fun, and I actually had my first perfect round where we took all the tricks. Woohoo!
