End of Year...

...Yes I know I'm way over due!!! Let's see, a ton to post about. Thanksgiving was awesome as always, lots of food and family time!! My friend Doug came to visit and that was a blast, thanksgiving morning Jill, her friend Beth and I ran the Festival Foods Turkey Trot! 5 miles baby...and it was cold haha I wore leggings, pants, a couple shirts, running jacket,hat and gloves. Jasmine was supposed to run it with us, but she bailed out the night before, and we couldn't get Jeana to run with us either. I tell ya, you can't beat Jill and I, we're the die-hards haha jk Jill is but not me at all. Before, during and after I regreted the run haha I was pretty sore for a couple days thanks to not training at all this time. Surprisingly I wasn't too upset about my time...5 miles in 1:06, pretty happy about that!

Cedar Creek Family Fun Night 2010!!!! WOOHOO!!! It was so much fun, we tried out Cedar Creek and it was a hit! The kids had a blast and so did I!! Once again I think thanks to my brothers mostly we were on the watch list for all the lifeguards haha There weren't many people there at all, so that was super nice, but the lifeguards sure earned their money that night with us there. We ate supper in my parents room which had a huge tub, haha and yes we think we are pretty funny!!All the Grandkids!!! They had so much fun! This was right after I got there, I had to work that day so I got there after everyone else, but don't worry thanks to the kids I was all wet very quickly!


Christmas was a stinkin BLAST! I just love this holiday and everthing about it. I get to see cousins that I don't see often and I get to be with my family non-stop!! Thanks to Burbs and Jeana, we had a PJ Christmas Eve! So fun, the kids had a ball. Plus we rented Just Dance 2 for the Wii and oh my goodness!!! HILARIOUS! We had some good laughs while playing that game. We also brought back the Couples game for the adults hosted by Jasmine and myself....my goal is to one day actually participate in the game haha There was also pass-the-parcel for the kids, my ultimate favorite was when Gracie got the task of having her Mom and Dad give a hug and kiss to Grandpa and Grandma hehehe oh Jake we love you, nothing is more precious than seeing your big brother give your dad a big hug and kiss!! And of course we had tons of food! We ordered from Luigis this year and let me tell ya, the pizza was a hit!
Jasmine and my nieces are looking older than me, how is that fair?!
I just love this picture of Gryffin and me, he doesn't come by me much, apparently its not cool to come by your auntie anymore, but I snagged him for a pic :)Us girls with our Mama!!! Jill got all of us running bands, which are awesome!!!! hehe funny story but when we took our first pic iwth Jeana's camera I looked at and realized for Jeana that hers was upside down...yeah we will have to be careful for that in the future runs! And our Awesome Mom got us all scarves!! YAY!!!!

Dec, 29th!! A bunch of us bought tickets to go see Jeff Dunham at the Resch Center. I invited my friend Josh to come with us and I'm so glad. I laughed a lot that night, my face hurt! Jeff Dunham was hilarious, to be honest I really didn't know who he was before the show and my gosh now I'm a big fan! His opening acts were so funny too!! So worth the money for the tickets, such a fun night!!!
We ate at Texas Roadhouse, YUMMY!!! And Josh is enjoying his HOFFMAN SANDWICH! :) Inside joke, Jill and I met Josh at the Appleton Singles Branch and he is about one of the funniest guys around!The other table...Mama and Papa and Jerod and Shel!

Thanks to Jeana's b-day being so close we couldn't resist telling the waiter it was her b-day hehe she had to do a big YEEE-HAAAA but she did get ice cream!! oh what a night!
