Lilli's 3rd Birthday Party - Party #1

Saturday was a marathon of birthday parties! THREE in one day! I didn't think the girls would survive, heck I didn't think I would survive but we did! After birthday party #2 the girls got a power nap which got them ready for #3 :-)

The first birthday party was for Lilli. Lilli is Payten's friend from dance class. The party was at Max & Oli's Playhouse. This place is SOO fun! We will be having Payten's 3rd birthday here in February. Every time we go Payten never wants to leave. It has bounce houses, arcade, slides, ball pit, rides, snack bar.... its really a lot of fun! This time Camryn even had a blast!

Happy 3rd Birthday Lilli!

Payten's loves the ball pit!!!

Payten's Christmas Performance

ps - please ignore my horrible taping!

School Christmas Performance

Tonight was Payten's school Christmas performance. It was so adorable! The kids are such good sports and they had a blast! I didn't get any good pictures at the performance but I did get a video. It's hysterical! I will post tomorrow! :-)

Cookie Fun!

What a week it's been here so far! It's been quite crazy but we're almost there.... Tonight Payten and Daddy baked some yummy cookies for school. I think Daddy had more fun then Payten, haha. Tomorrow evening is Payten's school Christmas Performance, should be funny watching a bunch of 2 year olds perform :-)

Having fun cutting out the cookies!

Wordless Wednesday - 12/8

Our Girls

Join The Florida Hogans, The Life of Rylie.. and Bryce too!, Angelica’s Awesome Adventures, and Shibley Smiles for some Wordless Wednesday fun!

The Florida Santa

It's been quite crazy around here. With getting back into our daily routine and get some sickies, its been just crazy! This week I am working at the office opposed to home so its even more crazier then usual. Next week I will be back to regular blogging :-)

Friday night we did get to visit the Florida Santa. Of course Payten just loved him. Camryn wasn't too sure of him, so I had to sit next to Santa while the girls got their pictures taken. Here are just a few from the session. Happy Monday! :-)

I think she really liked him, what do you think?

Wisconsin Trip - Good Byes

Good bye's are always so hard for me. Since we don't get to see our Wisconsin family often the good bye's are even harder. This time I tried to get the girls picture with everyone before we departed. Good bye's were even hard for Payten this time since she understands so much more. We were about 500 miles into our drive and she asked to go back to Grandma & Grandpa's house... it was too cute. We are hoping for another visit real soon, well maybe we'll wait until it warms up there :-)

Thank you to all of our family for making our visit a special one. We had an amazing time with all of you. We love you guys!

Wisconsin Trip - Sesame Street Live

Before we left to head to Wisconsin my mother in law called to see if it would be okay if she purchased tickets to go and see Sesame Street Live while we were visiting. Of course I couldn't pass up on the offer since Payten LOVES shows like this.

My mother in law and I took Payten and her cousin Bri on Saturday afternoon to the show. They had a blast! There faces were totally PRICELESS! We had awesome seats so I am sure that made it even better for them. This is a definite must again for the future. Thank you Mom for buying these awesome tickets!!

Wisconsin Trip - Thanksgiving

This is was our first Thanksgiving in years that it was actually chilly out. The girls were bundled with hats, gloves, and even with their hoodies on the their jackets too and it was still freezing.

We spent the holiday at Aunt Colleen's and Uncle Rick's house. There was about 25 of us. That is a lot of turkey for that many people. The meal was yummy and we all had a great time. We are hoping to make it to Wisconsin for Thanksgiving for the years to come. I am just praying its a little warmer next year :-) Hope you all had a wonderful holiday with your family and friends!

I promise there are only two more posts from our trip. Since we were gone for TEN days, there are lots of pictures :-) Next week I'll be back to my normal everyday blogging about updates. This week we have just been playing catch up :-)
