Ringing in with Neighbors

We are very fortunate to have such great friends that just happen to be neighbors.  We got our pj's on and went over to Lauterbach's to ring in the New Year with them and the Henderson's.  Good food and lots of laughs for big and little kids!


 A mean game of Pictionary.  The dads and their 2nd grade awnry boys...Dustin & Gavin, Nolan & Jaaron, and Ben & Nick.


Happy New Year!  Looking forward to lots more good times in the year ahead!
