PHOTOS: December 2010 · December 31, 2010

December was a busy final month of 2010. We participated in our final road race of the season, celebrated Joelle's fifth birthday on Dec. 13, celebrated Christmas and had winter break!

May 2011 be extra special to everyone. Happy New Year!

Joelle was queen for the afternoon as we had her birthday party for her friends at the Jump Zone.

Jonna shows off her Buccaneers colors by wearing daddy's hat.
Jonna and Joelle loved making sugar cookies. The decorating and eating were the best parts!
The girls loved the Moon Sand that Santa brought them.
Dad shows off his new grill - half gas, half charcoal, that mom got him for Christmas.
One thing we always do on Christmas Eve - in addition to getting new Christmas Eve pajamas - is measure the girls to see how much they have grown in the past year.
Jonna reads to Joelle.
During Christmas break, mom took the girls to Magic Wings butterfly conservatory. The butterflies were very active - we all had several land on us!
Looking good in one of the butterfly gardens.
This woman was a favorite of the butterflies. I wonder why?
Pretty butterfly.
Joelle can't believe that the butterfies love these bananas.
This butterfly was looking to make an escape - that's the door out of the conservatory.
