Playing Catch Up

Better finish blogging about stuff from this year because before we know it 2013 will be upon us and I am really bad at catching up.  Anyhow, here are a few things that have been going lately.
 We celebrated Thanksgiving with just our little family plus Jimmy this year, it was also Zach's 34th Birthday so we also got to sing Happy Birthday.  It was a fun day and kinda nice to just stay home and relax but we missed all of our family for sure. 
 We drove out to the LV Speedway to see the Glittering Light show, it is always a fun Christmas activity with the kids.
 We started the Elf on the Shelf tradition this year and so far it has been really fun and she has caused some mischief around the house. 
 The girls love going to find her and it is the first thing they want to do every morning.  Love those smiles!
 Zach finally had a Christmas party that we both could go to and it was so much fun meeting all the people he works with.  It was especially fun getting to see my hubby win an award for his awesomeness!  Proud wifey for sure!
My baby is getting so big, couldn't believe she fits in one of the girls old dresses. Such a pretty girl all dressed up!
 Another fun Holiday activity for the kids is the Ethel M Cactus Garden.  It is so darn pretty with all the lights.  The girls had lots of fun posing for pictures.
 I said goodbye to my twenties with an ugly sweater party, it was such a fun night playing games! I am so lucky to have been friends with all theses girls since I was just a kid! Thanks Maren for the party!
Turned 30 and it was such a fun night.  I can't remember a birthday that was so much fun!  First, my kids sang happy birthday to me and we set off all the fire alarms in the house with Zach's firework candle.  Next we headed out to dinner with friends and I was surprised with an awesome 3 tiered cake that was so yummy!  I love surprises!  After dinner we went  back to our house where we played games and and hung out.  It really was an awesome day!
 
My birthday made me realize how lucky I am to have so many awesome people in my life.  I have a studly hubby who loves me, kids who are amazing, the best family that is always there for me and lots of wonderful friends.  I am truly blessed and fortunate and I am thankful for that.  My 30's are looking pretty good!
