Thanksgiving 2013

Two days after Vegas we took family pictures and then minutes later headed to Mexico to start the holiday Thanksgiving fun. If you feel like we are always on the go, it's because we are!

36 hours in vegas

After the Michael Bubble concert  I woke up early the following morning and flew to vegas to meet up with my girls to celebrate Lynlee's birthday. I cannot begin to express how much fun we had. It was way too short but so worth the 5lb weight gain and no sleep.

Fall Break California Vacation

In October we had our very first family vacation with just our family. Glen had some business to do in California so we went out there with him to join in on some fun. We were able to go to Sea World, visit the beach, and have 5 days at Disneyland. There is something so special about being together with just your family. We loved every minute and even got a chance to see some cousins one morning.
