Morning Hoops

Lovin' the bubbles


Seriously have you ever seen so many bubbles come out of 1 machine?!

Snow Day

It's funny that we actually had to come back from Amsterdam to Mesa to see snow. Last weekend our community had snow day, the kids loved it and boy did they enjoy throwing snowballs.

Cam couldn't get enough


There is nothing sweeter than hearing your children laugh and this was no exception.

Pasta

The other day I was in World Market and was just browsing when we walked past the transportation pasta. Becks spotted it immediately and wouldn't let it go so yesterday for lunch and dinner we had airplane, train and motorcycle pasta.

Notice how he proudly lined the pasta up like a train


Working so hard



Fly like an airplane


While watering I heard Beckett say, "mom, I know how airplanes fly." Of course I had to watch this so I ran and got the camera.

Gymnastics Moves

Cheers

Last fall Brian and I attended a Semper Fi auction, of course I saw a limo so I bid on it and won! On Sunday we finally got everyone together from that night and hit the town! My parents kept the kids so I could get my stuff together for these events, I swear they are going straight to sainthood!!!!!!!

The group


The theme, Golden Globes (since they were the same night). I wish I would've planned the theme more in advance so we could've dressed the part!!!


Favors oh and plus a mixed tape that Brian made for the ride


This is my favorite picture from that night (it was at the restaurant bar), lol.


We had activities for each guest...ride the bull was one of them


Here was another...


Baby-to-be

Our friends are expecting baby #4 so on Saturday we went to the wine bar to celebrate.


The cupcakes, pink with sparkles




My sister-in-law Lara thought of the idea of a pig as a centerpiece. At the last minute I needed a gift and saw this pig, I added tulle and a flower and there you go....Thanks for the idea Lara, I didn't mean to steal it. The baby-to-be's name will be Harper.

Kids

Beckett purposly went to the pantry to get out the step stool to fly his airplane (it's in his hand)


Do you think this bite is big enough?



Kendal drawing on the easel (Daddy's heart is the biggest because he is the biggest)

Christmas 2011

This Christmas we headed to The Netherlands, Belgium and Denmark. It was a chilly trip but no snow, darn it all. The kids did great but unfortunately all of them got sick so now ours on antibiotics, whew.


Uncle Jeff, Sayle, Aunt Lala, Grammie, Camden, Kendal, Grandpa, Brian and Beckett on the boat to Denmark


Cheers! I think this restaurant was the fellas favorite, beer and sausage!




A favorite way to ride


Another favorite way


Cam's poor head kept bobbing around so Grammie made this contraption, genius!


HAPPY NEW YEARS!
Copenhagen


Grammie and Grandpa were so thoughtful to let us go out to celebrate (what would we do without them), since there were 4 kids they had to split up rooms...I'm not even sure my mom saw fireworks!


Of course we had to eat at Beck's Bistro!!!!




On a carriage ride in Bruges, Belgium
