Happy Birthday Mommy!!!!!!!!!

Yes, I am now old. I can't believe that thirty is already here. We had lots of fun this weekend. Nana and Papa had the kids stay over Saturday night so Jeff and I could go out. We went to Shogun for a Japanese show and dinner and then went to go see a movie. We had a really great night out. Sunday night Nana and Papa took us all out to dinner and Uncle Patrick was in town too. We went back to the house were Nana and the kids had decorated for a party. They were really excited to show me. They made me a huge chocolate cake and we all ate cake and opened presents. Thanks Nana and Papa, Baylee, Riley, Jeff, and Patrick.

Here we are celebrating papas birthday. Nana made a yummy dinner and then we had our favorite- Birthday Cake.

Coconuts Birthday

It is time to celebrate Coconuts birthday. She just turned 4 years old.

Nana And Papas

We had a really great time over an Nana and Papas Christmas afternoon. We opened up a whole bunch of really nice gifts. Baylee's favorite was an American Girl doll she named Alice Kay, and a big brown horse for the doll to ride. Riley's favorite was a new remote control incredibles car and an incredibles blaster gun. He also loves his new race track. And mommy loves her new Ipod. We also opened presents from uncle Patrick, Emily and Rebecca. They sent Baylee the new fairytopia doll she really wanted and Riley loved the big smushy pillow and toys. We have so many new things to play with now it is hard to decide what. Before Christmas we made some room by going through alot of our things and picking out some of our nicer toys to give to the children in an orphanage in Mexico. Hopefully they will get to enjoy them as much as we did.

More Toys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here we are with more of our cool toys from Santa. Riley got what he has always wanted, a real tool bench, and Baylee now rocks out daily with her new Barbie electric guitar with microphone.

Christmas Morning

Lots and Lots of Toys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Reindeer Food

Right before bedtime, the kids took their reindeer food and sprinkled it on our grass to attract the reindeer to our house. Then they had to hurry and get in their beds so santa could come.

Christmas Eve

We had lots of fun on Christmas eve. The kids set out cookies for Santa, we had a wonderful prime rib dinner and opened one present.

Early Christmas

Tonight we had an early Christmas celebration with Olivia, Kristin and Daniel. They won't be with us for Christmas, so we opened gifts from them tonight. The kids just couldn't wait to unwrap their presents.

Riley's Chrismas Program

Tonight was Rileys Christmas program at his school.. He sang "The Friendly Beasts" and "We Wish You A Merry Christmas". He looked so cute.

Christmas Program

Baylee sang Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer with her fellow kindergarteners. It was so exciting to see her up on stage. She seems so grown up now. Here is also a picture of Baylee with her teacher Mrs. Gonzalez.

Here we are decorating a gingerbread house with our friend Maya. We also went to the zoo, where we made reindeer hats and got to see some real reindeer.

TOOTH FAIRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Baylee lost her first tooth December 8. It has been loose for about 6 months now so we are all happy to see it go. She was so excited when it finally fell out while brushing her teeth. She put it in her tooth fairy box under her pillow and in the morning she woke up to find two silver dollers.
