Carlin turned 8 on January 17! Oh my gosh! I am feeling old! She is my baby! On her birthday we celebrated with my family. Katie (my niece) was in town so we had everyone over. We had a barbecue and everyone brought something to share. Katie made a great cake! It was a hit! The next weekend she had a sleepover with a couple of her friends. We went and saw Madagascar 2 with them and my sister Pam and her kids. Afterwards, I took Carlin and her friends to get some webkinz. I think they had a lot of fun!
We stayed in Sacramento for Christmas this year. We had our traditional quiche for breakfast. We relaxed and played with the new stuff we got. At 1:00 we went to my sister Marilyn's house for early dinner and hung out with all the families. At 6:00 we went to Warren's sister's house for Christmas dinner too. Needless to say we were all stuffed. I think we had a great Christmas! I think the kids were happy with everything, but you would have to ask them!
The Wickham's invited us to go to Tahoe this weekend. They have a house right on the lake. We took the whole family up. We had a great time. We enjoyed spending time with the Wickham's and playing in the snow. We went sledding, toured the area, and enjoyed the company of each other and our friends.
