Making Christmas Cookies
We LOVE decorating sugar cookies at Christmas time! It's been cold around here so what better way to warm up then baking. All the kids helped me prepare this batch. They all come running when it involves sugar! ha! Even though the cookies may not be the best looking, they were so yummy. Making memories is what it's all about

Birthday Party at the Movies
We just celebrated my Son's 9th birthday party at our local movie theater. It's the perfect party for any kid. Especially when Dreamworks puts out another great 3D movie like Megamind. All the kids loved the film and said they would want to go back the next day to see it. I'm so glad it came out to the theaters just in time for Jared's birthday party.
Can't you just smell the popcorn from here? As an added bonus, each child and adult got a small popcorn, small coke for being apart of the party. Wow!
The party room! Plenty of space for kids and adults. I set out food on the first table, the middle was where I set up the cake, and the last table I put the presents on.
He requested a Halo cake like the video game. Well I had to get creative there because they don't make halo cakes around here. At least they don't have a kit or pan to make it from. I decided to order the Batman cake at the bakery and had them leave off the batman toy. I bought some new small Halo toys and added it to the top like they were fighting each other. I printed out a Halo picture, laminated it and stuck it in the cake so everyone knew the toys were halo. Us old folks can't always tell what the kids are into these days. :)
He got the X-box game he's been wanting for awhile. He was so happy!
Kids so cool, they had to wear their shades!
Madison played in the arcade during the movie. A one year-old of course can't sit still long enough for a movie such as this, but I managed to find other things for her to do.
After the party, Jared gave me a big thank you hug for such a fun day! The other Mom's said they might have their kids parties at the movie theater next. I think I've started something now. Ha! If you haven't thrown a birthday party at a movie theater before, look into it for your kids. They will love you for it.

Eclipse Baby!
Brittany, my friend Anna and I all got together and went to the midnight showing of Eclipse last night. It was so much fun to be there with other Twilight fans! The movie was so good and everyone was there to see what happens between Jacob, Bella and Edward. I won't give anything away if you haven't seen it yet.
Waiting for the movie to start.
Brittany supporting Team Jacob!

Gotta have the right gum for the movie!
We will probably see it a couple more time before the next installment of this series is released. Can't wait for the next midnight showing.

Making A Big Slash
We made our annual trip to the big water park this Summer. All the Cousins get together to have a day of fun in the sun. They made a big slash in the wave pool, water slides, lazy river and even hanging out at the baby pool with Maddie.
Jared, Britt & their Cousin Dustin
The older two getting ready for the big slides!
Maddie having fun playing in the water. It was her first time there and she did really well.
Cousins, Jared and Austin
It looks like she's saying...Hey Boys! :)
Brittany playing in the water with Madison.
Having their snacks!
Relaxing in her chair at the end of a long day!
It was fun and we'll do it again once we all recover from a little sunburn.

Beating the Heat
We had some HOT weather this weekend so I went out and bought some pools for the kids to cool off in. They had a lot of fun.
Madison's first pool. Isn't it cute?
She loved being in the water outside!
Here's a clip of her splashing and having fun.
The older two had their own small pool to soak in.
I had them side by side so they could all swim together.
Brittany playing games with Madison
Jared joined her and I don't know how managed to fit himself in that tiny pool.
I set up the table out on our deck with snacks, drinks & towels after they were done in the water.
Some of our favorite Summer snacks
I also had a BBQ later on in the afternoon. It felt like Summer was really here even though school isn't out for another 3 weeks. This is a preview of what's to come.
