First off, Christmas. Our Christmas this year was so fun, the boys loved every minute of it. They got some awesome toys, books, board, games, clothes, movies, and even a TV (for the playroom LOL). Jimmy and I decided that we needed to start getting each other something so that the boys know that Christmas is about giving to everyone not just kids. I got a cutting mat, rotary cutter, and a new cloth tape measure from Jimmy and the boys. Just what I asked for. LOL. The boys and I got Jimmy a socket set, air compressor, and coffee. We enjoyed seeing Christmas lights nearly every weekend and watching Christmas movies, this is the best time of year to me.
Now to the year in review for the Schaefer's.
Jan- Jimmy traveled to Chicago for work during one of the worst winters they have seen in a very long time.

We went to Birthday Lunch with my family at Rudy's and then Beth Marie's for Ice Cream

May- Our house sold and we moved in with Jimmy's parents
June- We found a house just down the street from Jimmy's parents, close to the park and near a great elementary school.
