Christmas 2010: Part 1

We attempted to get a Christmas outfit picture but the kids just wouldn't stand next to one another.We were able to get some cute individual ones.

Legoland

We took Andrew to Legoland on Monday. (had free tickets) It was a special trip for him because this was the first time that he has gone on roller coasters. We left Kaitlynn at home with my Mom because Kaitlynn was still sick. If she wasn't sick, we still would of left her home because we wanted it to be a day of Andrew.


Just pure excitement came out of this boy all day. Andrew walked the whole time and did a good job waiting in line for the rides. We were lucky that the lines were short and he could watch the ride while in line. The only sad part about the day is when Andrew got down on all fours started to crawl. When he got up he was walking on his tip toes. The poor boy's feet were hurting from all the walking.

Goofing around

Yesterday the 28th we had Thanksgiving dinner with my family. We met over at their house and ate some yummy food and then took some family pictures.

This my brother's oldest, Addison, and my little one Kaitlynn.One of the many attempts at a group picture. Jason, Brittany, Addison, Kaitlynn, My Dad, Landon, My Mom, Andrew, Me and David

Andrew got too excited to sit still for most of the pictures. It is nice to be able to see my brother because I never get to see him. I also got to meet my new nephew for the first time.

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving to Everyone! Andrew had a card at school and I'm sharing it with all of you! Enjoy!!!

Halloween 2010 Part 1

We finally made to Lombardi Ranch this year before Halloween. I was getting worried that we wouldn't make it but I rushed over on a day off. All those involved has a blast. We went on Tuesday the 25th.










Looking forward to next year.

Okay...okay

I was going to tell Carrie in person when she was in town last week but we never got to see her so that plan feel through.

Sorry I haven't done an update. Been too busy with work and life. I was driving down the street going to a Dr appointment. I was passing the Gardening truck that was driving the opposite direction and my car went bang. When I turned around and stopped I saw the damage. From the other persons mouth they stated, I opened my door to see if there was a car coming and my door was taken out of my hand. The stupid guy opened his door right into my passenger side of my car. I wasn't able to make it to my Dr appointment that I was really looking forward too and I had to reschedule because of this Stupid Adult.

Kaitlynn's 1st Birthday Party

I know that I said almost a month ago that I was going to post about her birthday party. Well, I have finally gotten around to posting up the pictures. We celebrated her first birthday with some family and friends. We ate pizza and enjoyed everyone's company. I made Kaitlynn a cup-cake cake with a princess theme.

Kaitlynn really enjoyed her cup-cake.After the cupcakes, we started on the opening of the presents. Kaitlynn wasn't too interested in opening the presents but I saved her favorite present for last.

Kaitlynn got some clothes, some water soft balls, some My little ponies, a small soccer ball, a shopping cart and this last present.....Andrew came to help open the present.......
She got her first baby doll that she just loved.......
After opening up presents, we all changed and went up to the pool for some out door fun. Thanks to all those who came to celebrate Kaitlynn's 1st birthday with us. Can't wait till next year!!!

Explanation to P.O.T. W. 8/16 to 8/22

Okay....I know that it has been a little while since I have posted. I was asked to explain the story to the last post and what happened to my little man. Well here we go......
On Tuesday the 17th at 9 am in the morning, the phone rings. David looks at the caller Id and says, "This is good." It is Andrew's school calling. David picks up the phone and they proceed to inform him that Andrew fell at the drinking fountain and he hit the side of his eye. Andrew is okay but very upset. The lady on the phone blabbed on and on until David could put in a word. All he said was, "Do we have to come pick him up?" and she said no he's fine. All we said is okay and hung up the phone. When Drew got home from school, I took this picture. His black eye got worse as the days went on.
Then at Back to school night, the 26th, I went to talk to his teacher. I asked her what happened at the drinking fountain. She smiled and told me the story. Next to the drinking fountain is the rail that is arched at the top and has a bar in the middle. They are on both sides of the drinking fountain. Now Andrew is too short to reach the lower fountain and he was standing on the bar to reach the fountain to get a drink. His foot slipped off the bar and he hit his eye on the fountain. He is such a boy.

Picture of the Week 8-16 to 8-22

So I have decided to post a random picture and call it "Picture of the week". The catch to this is, All who read and visit the blog come up with the Caption to the picture. (If you know the real story to the picture, don't spoil my fun.) So let the stories begin.
