So much to be thankful for

We had a great Thanksgiving! Brian fried the turkey, and my mom made the rest. She is the best cook and everything tasted delicious! I have a wonderful family and so much to be thankful for.

Tree time!

The kids beg for the tree to be set up as soon as Jacob's birthday is over! It is so fun to see them so excited to put the tree together, string up the lights, and put on their own ornaments. We have a tradition in our family where we get each kid picks out a special ornament of something that they really enjoyed during that year. This year Jacob is got a game controller one, Dillon a Club Penguin one, Courtney a Tinkerbell one, and Evan a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse one. Very fitting, don't you think?

New Moon Madness!

This past Friday I had the chance to go to a private screening of New Moon! It was a blast to go with so many friends! We had a great time laughing and really enjoyed our night out together! (It made all the difference to go with my Twilight mom buddies!). Overall, it really wasn't too bad of a movie either. Don't get me wrong, there were still some "cheesy" parts, but I went there expecting that. Favorite parts: When Jacob cut his hair, Jacob coming into Bella's room, and well, basically anything Jacob. Not so favorite parts: The future scene where they were running through the meadow, and some of the Volturi were quite strange. What did you guys think?

Jacob's 11th birthday

For Jacob's birthday, we had Grandpa and Grandma K over for dinner. Jacob picked Taco Salad and it was yummy! He opened gifts and loved all of them! Thank you Grandpa and Grandma for coming and the fun gifts! Jacob received alot of birthday wishes and gifts this year from everyone and he went to bed with a smile on his face. He told me that he had the best birthday!

Party at the Cheese!

We had this great party all planned out for Jacob's birthday, however plans changed when Dillon got sick and we had to have the party elsewhere. So at the last minute, I took Jacob and 3 of his best friends to Chuck E Cheese for a little fun! They had a great time playing games and just being goofy together! Happy 11th birthday Jacob! You are such a fun kid!
