The Birthday Boy!

Lets see how good my memory is...

We had Dylan's birthday at Pump It Up. Mick's parents were able to come up and join in the festivities too. The kids and the parents had a blast!

Mick's parents were able to stay for a week and we had a great visit with them. We went to Ryan and Tanya's cabin in Breckenridge for a night and had dinner at Bubba Gumps Shrimp Co. They were also able to watch Dylan play a soccer game while they were here too.

Mick has been busy with work as usual. He also got himself something for a change. He bought a Firebird Convertible and is loving it! He also started back to college this past week. He seems excited about it. If everything goes as planned he should be done in a year. He was sick all last week and even went twice to the doctor. So you know he wasn't feeling well. It lasted a good week.

Kristian had an awards assembly last week. He had A's in all but one class and he missed an A in there by 1 point! But we are still extremely proud of him! A's, B's, it is all good! He has been working on making a web page for his comics that he enjoys doing on the computer. It is pretty impressive what he can do.

Kristian's principle lost a bet and had to dress up like a hotdog!

The two Dylans...

Dalton, Dylan and Reagan
My little ninja!

Dylan is still loving school. He keeps asking when he will be in kindergarten! It's going to be a while!! He had his first school party for Halloween. They had so much food and he just kept eating and eating! But he does that anyway. From the time he gets up till the time he goes to bed, he is hungry! I don't know where he puts it though.

I have been busy chauffeuring them around. I am glad that soccer is over though. I felt like I lived in my car from 12:30 to 7 at night on days that we had soccer practice. It was crazy! Of course the other night Dylan tells me he wants to play hockey! Now that scares me!

ZZ Top
Mick and I at the ZZ Top concert and no... I didn't realize the wall behind me was purple till I looked at the picture. How funny that I coordinated so well though! lol

Mick and I went and saw ZZ Top. They did an awesome job! I kept thinking that they were really old, because they have been around for so long and well their looks don't help with that either! I was shocked to find out that they are only 58! We had a great time at the concert. We went with some friends of ours, Kay and Gordon. We had dinner before there at the venue and it was delicious! Mick and I ended up staying in town at a hotel for the night. We figured it was going to be late by the time the concert was out anyway. It was a nice night out for us. The boys stayed the night with Geno and Jen and had a great time roasting marshmallows. We had brunch the next morning with Chris and Maite. And then it was back to reality and getting ready for Halloween night!

For Halloween this year we decorated our trailer and hooked it up to pull people around the neighborhoods for Trick Or Treating. Luckily the weather was nice enough. We all had a great time. The boys were ninjas this year! Afterwards we went to a mexican place to eat and all of the sudden my eye started swelling up. We are thinking it was something in the salsa, even though we have eaten there several times before. But once I stopped eating it my eye went back to normal. Very strange!

The boys and their pumpkins. Saturday, we went to Cat and Brett's for dinner. They invited Chris and Maite and Geno and Jen, plus families over. It was nice to visit with everyone.

Sunday was a welcomed day of being home! We have been going ninety to nothing here recently so just staying home was a blessing. We caught up on the NetFlix movies we had and laid in the bed most of the day. It was really nice.

Monday I started feeling sick... I guess whatever Mick had he gave to me. I fought it all week and just went ahead with all my plans.. ( I don't have time to get sick) But it finally caught up to me on Saturday. I went to a jewelry party at Jen's and then me, Jen and Cat went shopping. I started feeling the week catching up to me then. By the time I got home last night I was feeling horrible! I ended up going to the doctor this morning. It was like Deja Vu because I was just there two weeks ago to the day with a sinus infection. She told me I needed to take it easy this week and SLOW down. How on earth as a mom am I supposed to do that??? I am taking Monday and possibly Tuesday off from Curves, but thats about all I can do.. So hopefully I am able to knock it out this time and not have to go back again.

Well that is all I can remember for this time. The holiday season is upon us... So not sure when I will be back on here. If for some reason I don't make it back before Thanksgiving I hope that all of you have a very safe and Happy Thanksgiving! Until next time...
