 Hiding in the tree

 Getting in a quick workout

 Potty break

 The kids set up this bed for Elvis and she found American Girl cucumber stickers for her eyes

 Marshmallow hot tubing(Kendall ate most of the marshmallow after school, it was full in the morning)

 Again the kids set up this table for Elvis

 Doing rope climbs

 Note from Kendall

 Movie Night-used the "chairs" (inside of her hats with doll pillows) set up for them

 Again...table set up for her...Elvis decided to play Hungry Hippo after eating cookies and Kisses

 Eating the last Kiss

 Changing the Christmas counter-this one was tough-Andon searched all morning and Kendall ended up finding her 1st!

Reading the Christmas Sweater with Friends

 

 

Weekly update: PTO and Scout pack meeitng was Thursday-I needed to be cloned, Friday my sister Cindy graduated so my parents came out. Kendall wanted to go to her graduation, so my parents took her to dinner with them and to the graduation. We went to Wahoos for dinner with the boys, I ordered a Sunshine in a can and the cashier asked for my ID! Does it get any better than that? NO!

Shopped with the girls Saturday, Devin and grandpa spent the afternoon together while Andon was home sick :( Deon stayed with him and worked on things around home.

Sunday we meet for lunch, swam and had dinner at the house with my parents.

 

Liza came over Friday and we made these:

Sunday school teachers, bus driver and girl scout leader







Wrestling

A little late...but here are pictures from Devin's last wrestling meet:

 A quick riding lesson with Trisha & Phoenix after the meet...

 before heading to Pizza Hut for an end of season party!

Devin enjoyed wrestling and even made a few new friends!

Adopted Elvis the elf

I was a little mixed on this adoption simpily because my boys are older and I thought they would enjoy her...Was I wrong! Andon is the first one up in the mornings and has always found her. He is quite interesrted in our elf. He may have accidentley touched her, but he left a note saying he was sorry.

 We made cookies for Elvis to welcome her into our family and she got the milk herself

 Climbing the kitchen light

 Fishing

 On the climbing wall

 Connect 4 with the nutcracker

Making steel cut oats in the crock pot for the family since we had a busy Saturday

 Elvis found a man friend while driving around in Barbie's Jeep-Kendall added pink bunny in the morning.

 Checking on baby Jesus-note Elvis' man friend again

 Hearding farm animals

A game of air hockey

 

Stay tuned for the next couple weeks with Elvis

Thanksgiving break

Over break we put up the tree:

 Don't let them fool you...they look as though they are getting along, however they were arguing over ornaments that were theirs, where to hang ornaments etc.

My helper

 Boys lost decorating interest and moved on to Fort Making

Snow flakes

On Thanksgiving day; I baked a ham, watched Football, and went black Thursday shopping with Liza.

Friday we relaxed around the house and continued our holiday tradition of the Gingerbread houses:

 

The boys slept on the futon over break

Saturday morning the girls had a spa morning

 

While we were spa-ing, the boys were playing football out front with dad and finishing my towel hook rack.

The Boys and the Broncos

The weekend of the 16th my family came out for a Broncos game. Since it was the weekend before Thanksgiving, we had a dinner Saturday after lots of running around with the boys sports; Andon's hockey game, grab lunch and head to Devin's wrestling meet then home to cook.

Sunday the boys plus Cindy headed to the Broncos game:

The Crew

 Devin with his game day stuff

 Grandpa and the boys

 Dad and the boys

 checking out the players

 This picture makes me laugh

While the boys were at the game, the girls went to Denver too! We went to Casa Bonitas, Ikea and American Girl.

Updates

 Kendall made it to the top of the Werth climbing wall!! Now she wants to climb everynight.

 The boys were out making a ramp for the sled on the 1st snowfall of the season-trust me..it has not been much with warm temps for this time of year.

Andon suited up for goalie and loved it-grandma and grandpa, aunt Sharon, uncle Aaron and Lauren got to watch  also!
