Holiday Cheer

We had a great weekend decorating the house and getting our tree! The kids are so into Christmas this year that it's really fun. I'm trying to get everything done by this weekend so I can relax and enjoy the holidays with them! Good luck to me...

"Kade has a girlfriend!"

Well, I have to admit that I do remember having a "boyfriend" in Kindergarten. His name was Darren - so, I guess this is not unusual. Kade is truly smitten with little Crystel! He has actually said she was his girlfriend and he coaxed his sister into inviting her to her birthday party. Lucky for us, she's the sweetest little thing! We'll see how long this lasts...maybe until he gets into the "girls are yucky stage". When is that exactly?

Kennedy is 4

Well, my little girl is 4 years old! It's hard to believe...She had a hard time deciding if she wanted a Cinderella birthday or a horse birthday. She loves both so much! But, Safeway doesn't make a "horse" cake, so that decided it for her. We had such a fun time celebrating on her actual birthday and then at her "bowling birthday", which she has been talking about for months. Happy Birthday Kiki!

Baby Kiki

Ok, so I had to bring a baby picture of Kennedy to school this week and I started looking through her baby album. Two things happened: First, I could not believe how much she has grown! (and how darn CUTE she was/is!) Second, I realized that Cole doesn't even have an album with pictures and that I better get moving on that! Anyway, I just had to put a couple up because they are so cute!

Wildlife Safari

We had a great time at Wildlife Safari in late August. The animals were SO close to the car and the kids loved it!

We got a great deal at a local hotel, so we were able to hang out and enjoy - Although, we promised to go swimming and it was FREEZING!! We'll definitely go back again.

Space Needle

We enjoyed our ride to the top of the Space Needle in Seattle. The kids also loved making pressed pennies and playing a few games.

Happy Birthday Justin and Emma

We had a great time at Justin and Emma's birthday parties! The kids always enjoy their time with the "cousins". We were glad to be able to be there! We spent the week with Grama and Papa, which was great. Papa surprised the kids with a real tree house, complete with a trap door that locks! Don't tell Abbey if you see her - she'll be the last grandchild to see the big surprise!
