Austin & Katelyn's B-day
We had a great day, I can't believe they are 6. We waited until Saturday the 6th and had a big party at Chuck E Cheese. They had a great time.
This was a big year for them, Grandma took them to Build a Bear all by themselves. They had so much fun and came back with bears that are very much them. Thanks Grandma.

Christmas Dance Concert
Since all four girls dance, this was a big event at our house. My niece Cassie danced as well. It was a great show.
Meeting Santa
After the big show a special visitor comes to see the kids. The two big girls decided that they were to old to visit with Santa, I don't think you are ever to old. But I didn't argue with them.

Richins Family Christmas Party
Great food and good company, what more could you ask for. We have the kids reenact the nativity. This year Kyle and my niece Sara were Mary and Joseph (they are 3) and it was so precious.

Christmas Eve Party
Party at Grandma Washington's. It was only us and the Thompson's this year, since it is to hard to travel at Christmas with six kids we stayed home, but it was everyone else's year to be with in-laws. So it was a little more quiet than usual, it was really nice. We had a yummy prime rib dinner and then the kids opened their usual Christmas Eve jammies. They all got cute slippers this year. Then when I said it was time for bed, they didn't even argue. I wish that would happen more than once a year.
