Happy December Birthdays!!

Well a couple nights ago my whole fam went to Paddingtons to celebrate the December birthdays! Nick (my man), Kyle (my bro), Deon (my sis-n-law) and Brogan (my nephew) all have December birthdays! Can I just say it was pure craziness!! Now that my sister has moved back to join the madness the whole family is here! And when all the kids get together...lets just say...CHAOS! It's always fun though...never a dull moment! Sorry to the victims who decided to eat pizza that night too! Happy Birthday you guys...we love you!

Nick anticipating a big wish...hmmmm....I bet I know what it is!
Brogan turned 2...he was loving the party!

The Birthday Bunch...Kyle,Deon,Brogan, and Nick!

Tis' the Season!!

Well tis' the season for Christmas Parties!! Friday night we went to our Ward Christmas party. Gavin and Gracie made their BIG debuts in the Nativity! Gavin was a shepherd and Gracie was Mary. Gavin hated the spotlight and Gracie loved it...are you surprised??? Then Santa made his appearance...thank goodness that was all the kids cared about. So Gavin and Gracie sat on his lap together and had a little chit chat. Christmas is the best...too bad it flys by so fast!

Gracie was lovin it!!!

Can you spot Gavin???

The stars!!

Gracie looks a little too innocent...

The Fam...too bad I look like a big round red ornament

Happy Birthday to...My MAN!!

Well tomorrow is my man's birthday!! I am taking him away to a spa! I made us appointments for massages and pedicures. I know it wasn't the first thing on his birthday wish list but heck he needs to de-stress. And I thought I might as well go too... right?? So thanks for having a birthday sweets!

Nick...Happy Birthday Babe!! You are sexier than ever!! Here's to many more...CHEERS!!

He Makes Mom Proud!!

I love my Gavin...he is such a good boy! He received a Principal's Award at school for being such a good kid and helping his teacher! I can honestly say I don't worry about him much...he always wants to make the right choices! He makes me proud!! Keep up the good work Gavin!!

A Blazer Victory!

Here we are at another Blazer Game...except they actually won this time! Nick would be mad at me for talking smack about his team but I think he is starting to agree...they just can't get it together! Oh well we still love 'em!! Gracie and Gavin went this time! They make me laugh...we have Gavin who is so into it and is just so serious watching every play. And then there is Gracie who could care less and just wants to eat sno cones and popcorn and try to get Blaze's attention! She loves to cheer though and make alot of noise with the noisemakers!! She loves to yell DEFENSE..DEFENSE! She is a hoot! Isn' t it crazy how different your kids can be! And how you just love 'em the way they are!

Gav and Gracie getting ready for Gametime!
Gracie finally got Blaze to stop and take a pic after yelling his name at least 100 times!

Happy Thanksgiving!!

This Thanksgiving was really neat because we were all together!! Here is the whole Fam minus the good lookin photographer...me.

What the crap???

For those fellow Bachelor watchers...Ok so was anybody else totally disappointed last night??? What was that about? Not even choosing one? I was hoping maybe Jenny would come back and Brad would then propose to her...but my gosh to say goodbye to both. He should of totally picked Jenny, she was so darn cute! I was and still am mad about it...you watch the whole season and then it ends like that! Oh well...we will have to see how he explains himself tonight! He still is pretty cute though!
