New bikes...and a New Year......

First of all.... we wanted to wish everyone a Happy New year!!! For Christmas My dad got the kids new bikes and they were totally surprised, a couple of weeks ago we had went to see my dad,and family in Moreno valley and I told the kids they they weren't getting anything from grandpa,so when we got back from our trip up north they were so surprised to see the bike just waiting for them..., ..they absolutely love them... They have been riding them everyday.... even though it is freezing outside....Thanks grandpa... we love you.... For new years we went over to our good friends The Ramils home and had some good ol' mexican food... we ate til we couldn't walk....LOL...it was a fun nite with great company.... then Today we got up early and went and played volleyball with the Tonga's and the Kini-Kini's .... It has been so long since I have been on the court.... but I had such a great time.... we won alot of the games.. even the adults vs. kids..... we had a blast and look forward to doing it again... I'm looking forward to what is in store for our family in 2009.... here are a couple pics.... The kids on there new bikes.... and some of the kids watching the T.V. intensely waiting for the ball to drop at midnight..... =)
