Meet Your New Commander.

Guess Who's Six?!

I'll give you three clues: He loves Star Wars, he's cute, and he's my brother.

Today, we celebrate Isaac's birthday. He's adorably sweet and friendly, loves to talk, enjoys making friends. And has had at least two people ask him if they can take him home with them (you've gotta admit, he's cute enough to at least try and ask). He's a little mischief maker, too. He has multiple occupations: Jedi Master, Clone commander, spy, the list could go on. You can never tell what he is on any given day. Unless if he's wearing a costume, then you can.

Sweet shades.

It is wearable, and inside it has some sort of microphone.

It has other sound effects, too.

Soon after Isaac opened his presents, us older ones set to work getting the toys out.

Congrats to Abby who (as far as I know) never gave up getting that helmet out!

And aside from the sunglasses, candy, and a Spiderman watch, EVERYTHING was Star Wars related. This boy is probably one of Star Wars' biggest fans.

Happenings.

Well, my brother got his driver's permit today. I didn't get to see the triumphant return home, though. I had supposed I would hear Abby and Ella, thus giving me the heads-up, but nope. Not a word until after they pull past the window I had hoped to watch from. And no, I do not yet have mine. I don't know when I will, either. ;) It might be enough of a hazard with just one of us on the road, right?

In other events:

Neighbors have been taking advantage of all the snow

(if it's too blurry or something, they're all on snow-mobiles).

Christmas Series #3

Our last Christmas found us at my aunt and uncle's house. We left pretty early that morning (the day after Christmas) and arrived still kinda early in the morning. We brought lil' Hurley (our puppy), who instantly got loads of cuddles. Seriously, I think that creature would be wise to invest in a fan club!

Anyway, we had loads of fun, little things to snack on, games and gift-opening. It was all very fun. The total dog population in the house was four (including Hurley), the total cats were two (one dog and both cats belonged to my aunt and uncle), and the total number of people was eighteen. It was quite a crowd.

Abby and my cousin. Abby got a lava lamp!

The objective here is to jump over the rope, without taking

any running start or from high places.

Abby doing the limbo. She and my cousin were the final two left

(officially, anyway. The little ones were going in and out during the whole game).

Limbo! Parker made it farther than anyone expected!

My grandpa and... Isaac (I think) on my uncle's four-wheeler.
