Winn Party

The last party we had was my mom's. We had some yummy dinner there also. That's one thing i love about the holidays is all the yummy food. The kids did a little gift exchange and my mom got them a bunch of gifts. The girls had fun opening their presents and playing while we sat around visiting and eating ha ha.

Maddy loved her presents. Especially her Dora backpack that she knew she was getting and talked about all day.
Kenedi into her presents also.

Nikki hamming it. Hehe she loved all her presents also.

All the kids except Mattea and Nikki.

Burton Party

The day after Gerald's mom's party we had his dad's party. We had some yummy lunch again and the kids had fun playing with their cousins again. 2 days in a row yay!!! After we ate and settled down we did a little gift exchange. We all took a movie and we played a little game with them. We ended up with The Grinch cartoon and A Christmas Story which i had never seen.

Gerald's dad doing the dishes what a good man!!!!

Nikki and me.
Gerald and his dad. I didn't realize how much they looked alike until seeing this picture. I don't know how we managed to get NO pictures of Maddy this day but sadly we didn't. We still love the little stinker though.

Party

Oh man it seems like we had party after party this year. I am going to blog them all because there is so many pictures. First we had Gerald's moms party. Instead of the kids exchanging gifts they made some little crafts. The kids all had fun making them thanks to Mike and Robin (Gerald's brother and wife). The girls all had fun playing with their cousins and eating lots of yummy food.

I think they are excited to open presents??

Nikki and cousin Shalyssa.

Maddy my sweet little girl who is always so happy!!!

Another ginger bread house

OK so this ginger bread house is so much better than the ones that we attempted to make. I have to give all the credit to Gerald he sat and did pretty much the whole thing. He did a very good job don't you think?

Maddy's accident

Last night i was sitting at the computer desk and Maddy come running towards me and tripped and fell and hit the bottom of the computer desk chair where the wheels are. Her poor little face is bruised and swollen still today. The poor little thing cried and cried. I felt so bad for her.The top picture was last night and the bottom one is today.

Rock Creek Lights

This has become a "must" every year. We have to go and see the rock creek light. They are soo awesome and there is always something new every year. The girls love it and their favorite part is feeding the camel. We didn't get any good pictures of the camel because the batteries died in the camera but Gerald did get a kiss from the camel.

Gerald and the girls.
The girl's and me.

Ginger Bread house's

The other night we attempted to make ginger bread house's with just graham crackers and regular frosting. Needless to say it didn't turn out to well. But the girls had fun and got to eat lots of graham crackers with frosting.

Saturday outing

What a day yesterday was. It was just me and the 2 little girls home so we decided to load up and go over to grandma's house and wrap presents for her, and boy let me tell you how much help I had from Kenedi and Maddy. Then we decided to go to the new cartoon that came out The Princess and the Frog. That movie is so cute. I'm sure we will end up buying that one when it comes out on video. Maddy even sat through the whole movie. She was such a big girl sitting in those big chairs with her popcorn in her lap. Then we headed to my grandma's Christmas bowling party. Kenedi had so much fun bowling and playing with her cousins. She even beat aunt Hailey at bowling!! Santa came and visited us at the bowling alley and when Maddy seen him walk in she ran off and hid. She wouldn't sit on his lap but we did get a picture of her kicking and screaming while i was trying to hold her next to him. Kenedi asked Santa for a Nintendo DS and a game to go with it.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KENEDI

Kenedi had her 6Th birthday last week and is just growing up way to fast. She is getting very tall and is a total tom boy. It seems like just yesterday we were bringing her home. She is turning into a little lady and is a very sweet little girl. She is always helping out her sister's and she truly has a kind heart. She is so good at sharing with Maddy and is always there for her. I couldn't have asked for a more special little girl who always keeps me on my toes and a smile on my face.

This year her birthday was on a Wednesday and she wanted her friends over so on Wednesday night both grandmas came over and we had cup cakes and ice cream. Then we had her party on Saturday with all her friends. She had so much fun playing with everyone and eating lots of cake and ice cream.

Thanks to everyone who came and helped make her birthday special. We love you so much Kenedi and enjoy watching you grow into a beautiful little girl!!

Hum....

What happens when you leave your 2 year old alone for 5 minutes??????

This is what happens!! She crawls on the counter, gets in the cupboard and dumps all your salt, pepper and I'm not sure what else onto the counter!!
