JUNE 26, 2010

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO CHRIS

Chris turned 32 on December 10th. Wow, am I really old enough to have a kid THAT old??

We celebrated his birthday on Sunday, with dinner and 31 Flavors Ice cream cake. Jensyn had fun "decorating" her dad with bows and wrapping paper! He was excited to get something "electronic" for his gift...a new Apple TV!

What a good sport!

Christmas Cookies...and fun with FLOUR!

December 23rd was our annual Grandma/Grandkid Christmas Cookie Activity! Jacob reminded me we needed to do this about 2 months ago when he saw my rolling pin in the cupboard and he said "Member when we made cookies? Let's do that again!" This year his favorite part wasn't the rolling, or the cutting, or the baking, or the decorating....it was playing in the FLOUR!

FLOUR, anyone??

Ashley & Jensyn and their colorful nails...cutting angels & stars, trees & bells!

"Grandma, you need some flour on your arm!"

The finished product...I sure love sugar cookies and love these kids!!

SUNSET...

This photo was taken on October 29th. We opened our garage door to see this beautiful sight! We ran in and grabbed the camera and took a quick shot before this amazing sunset was gone...

Just had to share!

H-A-L-L-O-W-E-E-N

October 30th we were visited by some little spooks! The Bride of Dracula, a friendly witch, SpongeBob SquarePants, a Tootsie Roll and a black lab puppy named Tank. We had chili and apple cider and went trick-or-treating around the neighborhood. A storm was brewing, so our visitors left quickly to go to another party and do more trick-or-treating.

The rainy, cold weather didn't seem to scare the trick-or-treaters away-we still gave away 90 full-size candy bars!

SCaRy Hill...

During the month of October, Cherry Hill was transformed into "Scary Hill". Since the grandkids were out of school the Friday before Halloween, we spent a few hours mini-golfing, going for a tractor ride and playing in the balls. Jensyn & Ashley also made it to the top of the climbing wall, while Jacob played Aeroball. We had a "spook-tac-ular" time!!

Look who's 6 months!

Austin turned 6 months on October 28th. His eyes have turned hazel, he still spits up a lot, is a "screamer", and rolls over and over and over, from tummy to back to tummy. He's starting to sit up by himself for just a few seconds, loves apple juice, and always has a SMILE for everyone. His nicknames are Austey, Oz, Noodle, Peanut, and Babe. Love that boy!!

Happy Birthday to Darren!

October 14th Darren turned 24! Here's how we celebrated...

One of my favorite photos of this great guy...

These cute kids LOVE their Uncle Deena!

The traditional 31 Flavors Ice cream cake (chocolate cake, chocolate chip ice cream). The employees there need to practice their cursive writing!!

The Jazz were playing a pre-season game right on Darren's birthday and they won! We went to California Pizza Kitchen before the game where he enjoyed two of his favorite things...a pepperoni pizza and Pepsi! Love the new jersey, D!
