New Years Eve 2009:
So after playing in the magical, holiday snow all day--
and eating Bulgolgi for dinner
(again, I forgot to take photos of the feast!)
It was time to celebrate the new year--
but, how do we say good-bye to 2009
and "Hello 2010"
With a new tradition~~
(suggested by Morgan)
DRESS-UP
and since we have 11 costume boxes
it was Perfect--
see what you think:
The Magnificient Maxfields
(and Rogers)

a family that plays together--stays together....
Mighty Michael and his fair maidens~~
Best-dressed (?) Steven and the divine Ms. Meredith
Senor Jacob and damsel-in-distress Morgan
The BEAUTIES
and the BEASTS
what can I say.....
It was the hit of the holidays~~
even though we weren't expecting to put on a show~~
(thanks for stopping by Neva and Walter and
capturing it for posterity!!)
Now, after all that fun~~ more nourishment was needed~~
the girls had been "eyeing" this chocolate house
all weekend--
with promises of a New Year's Eve feast--
patience
and now, at last...
wait--
"grandpa, what are you doing!!"
"you can't cut it with scissors"
silly grandpa!!
And now,
let the wild rumpus start.....
Horns and streamers
Stay awake great-grandma Rhonda--
you too, Uncle Reuel!!
Diane will keep him awake!!
(so fun to have more family come by!)
oh, the noise~~the wonderful noise!!
games and junk food...
and look it's only 8 pm
(remember we have little ones who
can't tell time~~ so new year's is NOW)
Take the poppers and noise makers outside~~
they were LOUD!
Riley thought the horns were loud enough!
Sleepy-eyed beauty....
Morgan and Jacob
celebrating their 3 year anniversary too!!
Michael loves Jessica
Steven and Meredith
making music together
Another year~~
still in love!!
that better be sparkling cider, princess Morgan!!
And let's not forget another thing to celebrate~~
Since Steven & Meredith are leaving at 4 am--
we must, we must
celebrate his 25th Birthday
(twelve days early)
and it's a good thing he excels at math--
(it's hard to keep all those number candles in the house)
23 + 2 =25
Happy Family
~~Happy 2010~~
