End of Year Bunco Bonanza!!

I am part of the best Bunco group!!! I'm so happy that Vanessa and I organized this 2 years ago! Bunco is such a fun girls night and I always look forward to having a relaxing, fun, yummy night with these ladies that I've become such good friends with! We organize so every person hosts once a year on the last Wednesday of every month. When it is your turn to host you make dinner and dessert for everyone and get small bunco prizes worth $4 each. Each person pitches in $5 each bunco night to go towards the small monthly prizes($4 from each $5) and the big end of year prizes(the left over $1 goes into the kitty). So since we have 12 regular Bunco nights a year that gives us $144 for the big prizes at the end! It is a lot of fun and I really recommend!! Here our the photos from our end of year party at my house, looking foward to another year of fun ladies!!



The big prizes!

Knott's Berry Farm

We have so much fun going to Knott's Berry Farm every year for free for their law and fire appreciation days! This year we met up with our friends the Andersons and we had a really good time! It is always perfect on a weekday, hardly any lines! Mitch was really able to enjoy Camp Snoopy this year and although you can't tell from any of the photos he loved the rides! He would be so excited to get on and then as soon as he was he would get super stoic, like he was too cool for the ride! No expression whatsoever, like he was bored! It was hilarious! And as soon as the ride was over he would flip out cause he didn't want to get off! Little weirdo! It's so fun to get together with the Andersons and have the boys play together, we are so excited that they are moving back cause we really want Mitch to have their boys to grow up with!! Here is the photos from the fun day...

1st photo with Santa for the year, they have the sweetest set up there! Loved it! And Mitch climbed right up to see Santa! So cute!

Riding the "Toot toot", which is what Mitch calls the train.

On the school bus, I'm trying to get him to show some excitement..

There is a little in this one! ;)

Oh back to being too cool!

This is for you Traci...

This is why I haven't been posting lately.. this little man has become a handful! And while I was doing my last post, he was doing this...
He can now reach onto the counter and he pulled down a box of Krispy Kreme donuts and proceded to eat them all over my carpet!! ARGH!

Oh yeah, these are good Mommy! Get in my belly glaze donuts!

He got sweet sugary glaze bits all over the place and himself! YAY!

Is it bad that I just let him finish them off for dinner?? I don't think he thought so.

Decking My Hall

Our favorite time of the year putting up Christmas lights... NOT!!! :) We always struggle with this activity! And this year an injury occured. :( TO ME!!! Nothing like a broomstick to the face to give you some Christmas spirit!! I was throwing the broomstick up to Seth on the roof(he uses it to help bring the lights around the corner of 2nd level eve and he always frogets to take up with him) and it came back down on my chin/neck. IT HURT SO FREAKIN BAD!! I immediately started sobbing and fell to the ground.. dramatic much?? It seriously hurt! Meanwhile Seth still on the roof is freaking out cause I can't answer his questions if I'm ok, because I'm crying so hard.. he said he almost jumped off to help me! After I calmed down it didn't hurt as bad, but it left a pretty bad mark and to touch it whatsoever hurt really bad! This pic was taken days later and doesn't do it justice, but gives you an idea...


It got really dark and ugly, we kinda had fun making a joke of how Seth beats me tho. I know that really isn't funny... except that it is! Sorry if you're offended! Here is the rest of the photos from the events leading up to my hall being decked!

While we were putting up lights Mitch was having fun with Roxy, she is such a good dog!!

Ewwww, dog kisses!

Seth teaching Mitch how to climb the ladder

Roxy and Me, when I got hurt she came and sat by me, such a sweetie!

The house all lit up! We have even bigger plans for next year! ;)

I made this rudolph front door greeter last year and I just love it!

Mitch checking out the Christmas tree when we got it later!

We are ready for Christmas!!
