Happy New Year!

I was sad this week to finally take down the Christmas decorations.  I love to listen to the song "I cried the day that I take the tree down" from The Forgotten Carols, as I take my decorations down for more of a dramatic effect, plus it's a fun song to sing as loud as you can!  Anyway, usually I feel kind of depressed because my house looks so ordinary without the tree and lights, etc.  However, this year for Christmas I got professional pictures taken of the kids.  Usually I take their pictures outside, but I thought it might be nice to go somewhere inside this year because of Eliza (I didn't really want to make her sit outside while I try to capture the perfect moment in the freezing cold).  And so I love looking at my new wall with pictures of all four kids....
