new years eve

here you go... the moment you've been waiting for... naked new year's eve pictures. of beckett. obviously. i'm not a creep. i did this last year and now it can be a tradition. matt says it is going to get weird real fast, but i don't think so... i have like, at least three years left. anyways, you may notice in the photos below that beckett looks a little spottier than usual. that would be because of the chickenpox! oh yes, it's true. two weeks of itchy quarantine and we are on the mend. praise god that it appeared after christmas and before his birthday. we are surely thankful for that. here's to a wonderful 2013!

last new years eve beckett!

happy new year!

we started the new year off right... by lighting some roman candles that we had left over from the fourth of july. i only have a few terrible pictures, my camera was acting like it was physically in pain trying to focus in the pitch black outdoors, which was super annoying. we did act like the roman candles were wands and saige almost did hit me with a flying fire spark. luckily, we all avoided the er and we didn't even get arrested for our illegal use of fireworks. also, i don't think they should have dick clark hosting new years eve anymore... he is having a rough time since his stroke and it just makes me feel sad. also also, lady gaga is so weird. the end. 

also, i couldn't decide how i was going to introduce the new mystery person seen above in the picture. not say anything? play it cool? no. i guess i just now decided to go with embarrassing. it's saige's new boyfriend, will! woooooooooo. welcome to the blog, will. also, look at livi. what a creep. 

new years baby

beckett didn't make it until midnight (he was close... real close) for new years, but i decided to get some nakie bath pictures of him because... um... i don't really understand my logic behind it anymore. it made sense at the time. trust me. he is just so cute, it kills me.
