Christmas Day Fun!!

The kiddos were up at 6am sharp! They had a good 5 hours to play with their new treasures before daddy took them for the week. They seemed pleased with all that Santa had given them. Bug got a good haul with an iPod, jewelry box and an American Girl-type doll. Bud got legos, legos, and more legos. He also got a Nerf gun and Lego Harry Potter and Fineus and Ferb DS games. Mom got clothes, a purse, and some jewelry. Love it.

The rest of the crew came over later for turkey dinner and to open family gifts. :) What a great day.

Family Christmas Party 2010

What a great party!! It was good to see everyone again. The church was a much better venue for our little shin-dig. More space to play, talk and have fun.

The kiddos (and some adults) made yummo gingerbread cookies and crafts. Aunt Teresa turned Mikey and Jarom into Rudolph. :) Thanks Aunt Brooke and Aunt Anna for the fun.

Grandma & Grandpa gifts for everyone!

Some Holiday Fun

The kiddos school Holiday Concert. My camera battery died...so thank you aunt Brooke for taking these lovelies. :)

Mo-Tabs Annual Christmas Concert with David Archuleta. I had never been in the conference center before. BIG place. David's rendition of Silent Night may now be my favorite. LOVED it. :)

Good Times!!

The Drowsy Chaperone

I went here last night to see this show. Fabulous!! It was SO entertaining. I highly recommend it to anyone. Clever, witty, and full of wonderfully goofy surprises. What a treat! The following is the title character, and boy was she!

This guy was beyond hilarious!
I related to his bumbling, broadway crazed, divorcee vibe...a LOT.

Grey Mood...

I LOVE GREY! I realized yesterday that I am in love with gray. I love gray skies. Always have. This is probably why I love Seattle so much. I have gray things - gray pants, a gray car, 3 gray sweaters. My blog is even gray with a little yellow. It is such a calming color to me. I think it may just be my signature color.

Now if only I can find a gray-haired man to match my gray life! ;)

HaLLoWeeN 2010

We had a super fun family party this year. We had a scary food table including Goblin Puke (taco soup) and Poisoned Apples covered in Bat Slime (caramel apples). SOOOO fun! We played a few games and trick-or-treated a little after the rain stopped pouring down. Thanks to Rookie and Alice and Richard and the boys for coming and sharing our Halloween. :)
