Thanksgiving Part 1

Celebrating my birthday with the best present ever

Reilly not such a fan of candles or singing!

Mom with the girls and Froggy

Uncle Steve and Froggy

The game of Guesstures came down to Uncle Steve and Ted for the win...need I say more!

McKenna and Janet helping with clean up duty...Billy too!

Ted trying to convince Mikaela that he can play on her soccer team

Brady and Margaret

I listed this as part one as I am sure there will be more to update by the end of the weekend. We are having a GREAT time with the Doe clan in town as well as Brady and Margaret. It is so nice to have family around...too bad the Seymours and Bakkums are not closer! Thanksgiving dinner was fantastic, my mom out did herself as usual. I was in charge of the cheese platter and Pumpkin bread, cheese platter was hard to mess up but the pumpkin bread was kind of a disaster (think the aunt with the overdone turkey on Christmas Vacation, HA). After dinner and a little (or a lot) of wine we played a family game of Guestures...as you can see by the pictures a fun time was had by all! We have my 10 year reunion this weekend so I am sure that there will be more to report soon!

First weekend away

After Phantom

At the Sigfried and Roy Gardens at Mirage...so touristy!!

Billy and I spent our first weekend away from Reilly the weekend before Thanksgiving. For my birthday Billy took me to Vegas...it never seems to get old! We had a GREAT time, gambling, shopping, Phantom of the Opera, etc. We broke even playing Blackjack, didnt break even at the Mall and had front row seats to Phantom...oh yea and breakfast in bed was great as well. We did miss the Frog but it was nice to get away for a few days.

Froggy Comes to Life

Getting ready for the big night!!

Two cutest boys ever!
I swear this is some sort of child abuse....he actually didnt mind the costume

Sorry it has been a while!

We had a great Halloween with Frog in tow. We went out to our old neighborhood and saw some good friends, some that had met Rei and others that hadn't.

Everything is good here, Rei brought home his first cold and knocked our entire house out of commission for a few days but we all seem to be on the mend now, thank goodness!

We go in tomorrow for his 4 month check up, we are not looking forward to the shots that we know are coming, especially since dad wasn't there for the first round.

We hope all is well with everyone...we are basking in the 90 degree November Sun!!!
