Just the two of us........

Blake took me to Vegas for the weekend and it was HEAVEN!!!!
We LOVED every second of it! We left the kids at home and spent 3 days just the two of us. I am so mad I didn't take any pictures of us all decked out when we went out at night! We did soooooooo much it seemed like we were there forever. Shopping, a day at the spa, Cirque de Sole, INCREDIBLE food, 3 card poker, craps and relaxing in our spa suite with an AMAZING view of the strip, including a huge hot tub! (which we got for the price of a regular room cuz when I came back from the spa to take a shower the maid was watching Jerry Springer and smoking in our room! Can you believe that??!!!)
PS- You HAVE to take a steam shower sometime, it will change your life!

I had BLAST partying it up in Vegas, there's just soooo much to do, but the best part was being with Blake the whole time. I am truly so lucky to have such an incredible husband and BEST FRIEND. Thanks babe for the best weekend ever! Back to reality.......

Just a few......ok more than a few

Jen and I had WAY too much fun last weekend having a photo shoot with Tae. She was loving it and totally posing for the camera. Have I said I am OBSESSED with this girl??

The BEST Halloween EVER!

Blake was the best Dad in the whole world and dressed up as a pirate with Jax. He was so excited to be a pirate like his Dad!

I LOVE Halloween! I love the costumes, candy, parties, cold crisp air while trick-or-treating, decorations, pumpkin spice candles AND it means that Thanksgiving and Christmas are just around the corner. I have ALWAYS loved Halloween but I think this was my favorite year so far..........

We went to Wade and Anne's so Jax could Trick-or-Treat with his cousins. Anne made us the CUTEST Halloween dinner with chili and cornbread before we took the boys
out. It was sooooo yummy and totally got me in the Halloween spirit!

Scotty and Thomas taught Jax how to Trick-or-Treat and he LOVED it! He got the hang of it after the first house and ran from house to house after that saying "I NEED MORE CANDY!"

This was his very first house and he was so excited! Look at his face! And yes, Jax does have a black eye! He hit it on the corner of the table right before we left. I guess it sort of matched his pirate costume.... poor guy!

After we were done Trick-or-Treating we went over to Chris and Amy's for homemade cinnamon rolls. Which were AMAZING! That pretty much topped off the BEST Halloween EVER!

Murder at THE JUICE JOINT

On Friday we threw a Murder Mystery Dinner that was to die for! I decked out the basement and turned it into a 1920's Speakeasy. Everyone got soooooo into their characters not to mention the costumes were fabulous!
We had so much fun.......can we do it again??

Happy Birthday Lisi!

Happy Birthday Lisi! I can't even believe that you are 17! You are and always will be one of my favorite people in the world! You are incredible and I am soooooooo proud to be your sister. I remember when you were born I was so excited and I begged mom to let me share a room with you, so she made us a little red and white bedroom. We still to this day have NEVER EVER been in even a little fight! You are such an example of your life is what you make it and I love that about you. When I think of you I think beautiful, smart, funny, an incredible dancer, a leader, the best sister, an amazing friend, a dreamer, a reader/writer, confident, loves bread, outgoing, passionate, never quits, strong but sensitive, loyal, a true princess..........perfection. You will go so far in life and CAN and WILL accomplish anything you want! I hope you have an amazing day and and even better year to come! I can't wait to see what you do this year so I can brag about it! I love you little Lisi!

Tae's First Snow

Tae had her first snow yesterday..... so of coarse we had to dress her up in her little pink Uggs, her vest and snow hat and take pictures. She LOVED watching the snow fall. She just kept giggling and getting so excited she didn't know what to do with herself!

IT'S CHRISTMAS TIME!!!

Ok, its not really Christmas time yet, but this morning we got our first snowfall! It was a lazy morning at our house and Jax and I were making pancakes when he looked out the window and yelled "Its Christmas time Mommy!" Apparently he thinks that snow means Christmas so I had to explain to him that it wasn't Christmas yet, we still have Halloween and Thanksgiving first. Everyone knows that I love all of the holidays but I am OBSESSED with Christmas! I was sooooo excited to see Jax get excited for Christmas already. This year will be perfect. I can't wait!
