Daddy Dates & New Year's

New Year's Eve day, Ben took Alison out on her date.  She really wanted to go to Chuck E Cheese.




While they were gone, Eli built this amazing rocket ship.


Alison requested lasagna for dinner, so Ben made her one amazing dinner.  
While dinner was in the oven, we played dominoes.


The kids went to bed at the same time, blissfully unaware that normal people stay up until midnight.  

New Year's Day, Colin woke up ready to start school.  He was so pleased with himself that he put Brownie (his puppy) in his backpack.
 

Ben took Eli to a matinee showing of Star Wars!
 


While they were gone, Alison worked on her drawings. 



Eli came home and built a space ship from the movie out of blocks.


Christmas decorations came down today and we only have 1 more day of vacation...I'm going to miss all these pj days.

P.S. I found Santa's face today!  It was in the play kitchen.

P.P.S. Colin also hid 8 ornaments in his closet.  Anyone want a toddler who thinks he's a pirate?

Are you sure Colin isn't a little magpie? Cracks me up that he's been secreting things away in his closet.
