New Year Trip

My mom took the kids and I to see My Grandma Dawson over New Year's Weekend. The trip to Missouri went well, and we really enjoyed the time we were able to spend there.


My Grandma is a square dancer, and Juliet loved seeing her dressed up for one of her dances and both kids loved going to the dance and watching/joining in. Juliet loved Grandma's petticoat, because real princesses always have petticoats.


Taking a walk by this freezing lake was not nearly as comfortable as we had hoped.


Here is Juliet bringing in the New Year! I was too tired to stay up until midnight.



We also enjoyed stopping in Indianapolis to see my Aunt Jennifer (my mom's sister). We enjoyed a meal and some conversation with her. The kids enjoyed taking a break from the car and running around a bit.
