Happy New Year

So I am late in doing so, but a Happy New Year to all!
Oh did we a wonderful New Years Eve and Day. Jake and I of course took full advantage of our babysitters (thank you to both our parents!!!) We celebrated with my sister n law and her husband. A beautiful and expensive dinner at the Harbor House in Milwaukee. Look it up! It's gorgeous. We had reservations at 5:15 and didn't leave till 8. Among one of the delicious entree's was oysters! I have had them before and they were awful slimy, grimy, things. However they came highly recommended and I know being at the wonderful restaurant we were at they were worth a second try. They were so good. Jake loved them as well. Everything down to the cocktails and coffee that concluded our dinner was good. A beautiful window seat of Lake Michigan, with the waves slapping the rocks. It was a wonderful dinner and conversation followed by drinks at my sister n law's house. The fun part after dinner was shots of Rumchata, a sweet liquor that literally tastes like the left over milk in your bowl after having cinnamon toast crunch! Yum...I don't have a picture yet of dinner, but here is a picture of the sexy hubby and my beautiful sister n law Sara.






New Years Day my heart was heavy with it being the one year anniversary of my Grandpa passing. BUT, it was a beautiful day all in the same because we had our girl's dedicated at my parents church. Right now it's the closest home church Jake and I have. It's a church that feels home to us; where for years I have come when in Wisconsin and where Jake now attends, where our little family now goes. We are just so thankful to be able to dedicate our girls in front of the church members we have known to grow and love and in front of our parents.
