Having so much fun.....

laughing at Laila's antics....

and sometimes crying on the inside...

she REALLY likes lotion.....

seriously, do not leave this girl unattended for any length of time....I woke up one morning and found her sitting on the couch next to my purse with a entire packet of gum in her mouth!

aren't these kids so cute? Notice, still an antic going on with Laila...she probably stole that chapstick out of my purse and was sucking on it. But, she's happy about it!!

I got to have lots of girl's night fun in November...

starting with going out.....

to the SYTYCD tour. So fun!

and going to the midnight showing of New Moon with some die hards!
What could be better?
Going again for my friend's birthday bash later that month!

We had some family fun in Oceanside, CA....turns out you should bring swimsuits to the beach even in November.
Nathan found a perfect sand dollar all by himself!

got to visit the San Diego Zoo....and I taught my kids that the best things in life don't have to cost more than a quarter...

I present to you, my friends, the Footsie Wootsie....Don't ever pass up one of these bad boys! They are possibly my favorite San Diego Zoo attraction.

Here is my herd!

even the benches can turn into a fun ride!

we celebrated Robert's 30th birthday on Saturday! and I teased him all day with terms like 'old' and 'crotchety'....He is a good sport! I told him he is lucky because men get better looking with age and then scared him when I told him 'it's all downhill from here, for me!'
Haha!
Please, please be kind to me when I turn 30, honey!
I love you!

and I have been having lots of fun getting the kids all dressed up and festive for church...

I love seeing all the cuties dressed up in their holiday best. I seriously wanted to do a walk-off in nursery so all the little girls could parade around in their dresses....So cute!

Like I said, we have been having so much fun....I'll think we'll have some more!

Merry Christmas!
