What a greatThanksgiving weekend!

What a great weekend, I always love Thanksgiving because all of my family from Utah always comes down so we have a great dinner and a jam packed few days!! Once turkey day is over it's shopping for the girls and our annual Christmas picture with Santa and all us kids! We can't add anymore kids to it, or we won't all fit! It was a pretty funny sight to see us all trying to squeeze in!

We were able to get together with all of us friends and take a group picture and pictures of all the babies! That was a lot of fun! They are all so cute! Kolsen was more into attacking everyone around him which made for some cute pictures!! It is still amazing to me that we all had babies within a month and a half of eachother! I don't know of anyone else who can say that!!

Here they are from left to right: Kernan, Bode, Kolsen and Kamden.

We hadn't gotten to meet Kamden so it was fun to finally see her in person!

The Group! What a group we are! Left to right, Davis's, Mandile's, Brook's and Joncas's

I can't wait to watch them all grow up, I look forward to many more photo shoots with all of us and our kids! Hope you all had a Happy Thanksgiving! I'm totally ready for Christmas! All of my decorations are up already!! Merry Christmas!!

We're Back!!

What a week we had! For those of you who don't know we went to California for a week, the kids and I left last Tuesday for my Great Gram and Ginna's house and Brian flew over on Wednesday after work. We went to spend time with my Gram and Aunt since my Gram hadn't met Kernan yet. Plus, the Tacderan's were over from Hawaii to go to Disneyland so we went and met up with them for a few days! We had a blast!! I took tons of pictures so hope this isn't to boring!! It wouldn't let me do one big blog so I've done like 4! Enjoy!

The Characters...

We got to meet a lot of characters. I really wanted to meet Mr. Incredible, Kernan loves that movie! He was the first one we met, luck huh?!?
Then we ran into Captain Jack Sparrow! Kernan couldn't get enough, he just kept staring and Jack just stared back, the man that played him had his part down dang good!!

!!








Then there was Brian's favorite, Lighting McQueen and Mator. I swear my husband is like 4 years old when it comes to this movie! He'll watch it over and over! Plus he walks around quoting the movie!! So these were his favorite characters to meet!

Lunch with the Princesses!

On Friday we went to Ariel's Grotto for lunch. We got to have lunch with Ariel and four of her friends! The girls were in HEAVEN!











This picture is for Jeremiah, Kernan got to meet Cinderalla! HAHA!

Ride Time!

We had the best time at Disneyland, Maci is finally tall enough to ride most of the rides so we hit them! We went on Space Mountain so much we broke it, REALLY! We were on the second to last turn and it stopped, Brian said, "It didn't do that last time!" So, we got to see it all lit up inside! That was so exciting! We also rode on Spalsh Mountain, Thunder Mountain, Soarin' over California, etc. Here are some of the pictures of the girls and the rides...




Here are the girls on Monsters, Inc.
We also got Maci on the Tower of Terror. We didn't tell her it was scary until it was too late! It was the first ride she rode and I didn't think we'd get her on another one but we did! Won't get her on this one again though!
This is the Jellyfish ride..

This is the Bug's Life ride

Like She Never Moved!

The favorite part of the weekend for Kalei and I was watching these two girls! They acted as if Jordan had never left! They didn't leave eachothers side from the time we got out of the car on Thursday morning! I sure do miss her! Spending all that time with Jordan and her family really makes us miss them!! Hopefully they will be up for a visit in June! And if not we will be back to Disneyland with them in a year!!






Sorry if these were boring, I'm done now thanks for looking! Thanks Gram and Ginna for letting us stay with you and everything!! Hope to see you in April! Love you guys!

Hobby Lobby Report...

This report is for Heidi! Only 4 more days and you'll get to go, but here is my report...
It is SO cool! It's totally bigger than JoAnn's and has a lot of neat stuff! Heidi told me I would love it and she is so right! I'm so glad it's on the west side, it always seems that the east valley gets everything so finally it's our turn! I only spent $22.22 but everything I bought was 50% off! Gotta love sales!! You should all experiance this place, way cool!! It's at 99th Ave and McDowell in Avondale. Let me know what you all think! Have a GREAT day!
