Christmas Eve 2010

We had the Zimmers over for Christmas Eve. It was tons of fun. The boys played Wii and then we all played games. We made cookies for Santa. Andee wanted to make white cookies for Santa because his hair is white so....Snickerdoodles it was. Adam wanted those too so it worked out perfect. The kids opened their Christmas Jammies. Just before we were going to leave to look at lights Santa sent Andee a little message on the computer. He is just amazing, that Santa. It was a fun day!

Snow fun

Andee made her first snowman. She loved it. She wants to make one everytime it snows now. She loves snow and making snow angels.

Adam's 31

I thought we had candles but all we had was the 3 from Andee's Birthday. So the second candle is a match. It worked pretty good. Just had to blow it out fast.

Getting ready for christmas 2010

We had fun waiting for christmas this year. We wrote a letter to Santa, decorated the tree and just enjoyed the christmas time. I think I was more excited than Andee. I love Christmas. I love having the tree in the house. I love smelling it and everything about it. However, this is the first year we bought a tree at a lot and I didn't know you had to cut the bottom. Adam said he knew but we don't have a saw anyway. Needless to say our tree was about to burn down by Christmas it was so dry and dead.

The handsomest boy ever! CUTE! Can't get enough of him.

Decorating the tree.

Brock playing in the lights. He loved the lights but he stayed away from the tree.

turkey day 2010

We stayed here for Thanksgiving. My brother Karson and his family came over to have the feast with us. Thanksgiving just isn't as big of a feast with two families. I miss having food everywhere all day. We haven't had a thanksgiving home forever! It was a fun day. We made our first Turkey ever and I must say it was divine. Yum!

Da Bears!

We went to a Bears game and it was really fun! My dad bought tickets for all the sons and son-in-laws to go but some couldn't make it. It worked out great cause I was able to use the extra ticket. Adam and I have always wanted to go to a Bears game but the tickets are ridiculously expensive. Yay! Thanks dad! So the day was pretty cold but the sunshine made it bearable.
The Bears played the Vikings. My dad LOVES Brett Favre so he had to come watch him.

Sky deck thing in the stadium had an awesome view of the city.

The beginning of the game was the best part. They had a bald eagle flying around during the national anthem and then jets flew over at the very end. It was amazing! Also when the Bears came running out there were fireworks.

Here's our bro-in-law Jared enjoying some fun of the game. We were on vacation, it's okay. :)
There was a girl just two people down from him that couldn't even sit up she was so drunk. All the people around her were afraid she was going to throw up on them. She couldn't sit or do anything but she was able to keep drinking. Jared got a good video of her.

Adam, Dad and Karson outside the stadium. The day was a lot of fun! I hope we get the chance to go to another game. I could watch tons of games in person, on t.v. is another story. By the way the Bears won and it was an exciting game!

One, Two...THREE!!

Andee is 3. I can't believe it. She is getting so big. She already says she's three and loved her birthday. She wants everyday to be her birthday now. We took her to the zoo on her birthday and had cake and ice cream. That weekend we invited over some friends to have a little birthday party.

I forgot to mention that we also made her a really ugly cake!! I am not a baker!

The kids made bug hats and went on a bug scavenger hunt. They had bug whistles that they blew the whole time. It was so cute!

They finally made it to the bugs. They had to pop them to get the treats inside. The kids couldn't really pop the balloons. But it was cute seeing them bounce around and try. Jaxson was the only successful one.

Everyone who came. It was fun having the little party. Andee loved it and is still talking about all the kids who came.
