Happy Birthday K Monster

For the K Monster's 9th birthday I took her and a couple friends to see Arthur's Christmas

 then they climbed up the theatre walls...literally

Then off to Peter Piper Pizza

 That night we invited a few families over for dinner and cake pops

Happy Birthday K Monster we love you!

Christmas 2011

We started Christmas Eve by having a gingerbread making contest....

 I'm pretty sure the girls won!

Christmas Morning ....

 the kids were excited to see Santa had brought them both electric scooters

 showing off their loot

 Chad showing off his new clippers and the cookies Kenna made him

 then we had the BIG surprise for the kids....we were headed to Las Vegas...

 first trip on the Monorail...they loved it

 Bellagio Christmas Tree

 of course we needed a self-portrait

 then we were off to the wax museum

 Kenna and I hanging out with Tim McGraw

 Umm really Chad??

 haha....Cayden apparently likes Jessica Simpson

then we couldn't miss Benihana's

We took the kids to see the show Le Reve....its an amazing show but no cameras allowed so no pictures!

But the kids LOVED Vegas and can't wait to go back!

Grandmas's Christmas Party 2011

We headed down to my Mom's for the annual Family Christmas Party.....

there was of course the gingerbread houses

we played lots of minute to win it games

 

 The kids opened their new pj's from Gma

 and it wouldn't be Christmas without a visit from Santa!



Thanksgiving 2011

It was just Chad and I for Thanksgiving this year so we decided to disappear for the weekend so we headed off to Laughlin......and I didn't take any pictures.....so just believe me it was fun and relaxing with just the two of us hanging out!

Halloween 2011

I'm not normally into Halloween but since we have a lot of little Kindergartners that come into my office to Trick or Treat my boss and I decided to dress up like clowns for work. So here's my best clown and the kids as a she-devil and a zombie.

 We went trick or treating with some friends that night....
