Brett took the boys to the Orlando Magic game last night vs. the Minnesota Timberwolves. They had a BLAST and loved it every time the Magic scored. The final outcome was a "W" for the Magic and the boys are now huge Magic fans!!!
Sea World is our favorite Theme Park! Not only does it have great shows, and lots of stuff for the kiddos--they don't forget about the adults--it is an Anheuser Busch Park! Brett and I love the beer/cheese sampling "class" and the free beer throughout the day while we are enjoying quality family time! :)
Allison thinks that she might be interested in photography one day. She thinks that our camera is a toy--well it is MY toy but not hers. Anyways, when the kids were playing outside one day she decided to have fun taking pictures of them around the backyard. The kids love playing in that big tree in the backyard and Brett thinks that he might try making some kind of treehouse for them this summer. :)
We had a very nice Thanksgiving this year. During the day it was pretty quiet around our house and we enjoyed our kids company while watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Late afternoon we went over to my parents house for a delicious meal! They were excellent hosts and everything was very enjoyable. We hope all of you had a Happy Thanksgiving too!
Catherine loves her new duck that she sits in to take a bath. She loves to kick and play and wants to stay in the bath for as long as she can. I have a cute video of her in the duck but for some reason this computer isn't allowing me to upload it. Soon enough I will get it up on a different computer!
Catherine loves crawling up to furniture so that she can pull her self up and stand up while holding it. She's now enjoying taking little steps while holding on to the couch and other objects around the house. She's getting so big so fast!
Hope everybody had a happy Halloween! We live in a very fun neighborhood full of lots of Halloween Spirit and decorations so the kids had a blast! Allison has literally been marking down the days on a calendar for the past couple of weeks waiting for the big day! Allison was an American Idol Pop Star, Christopher was the Hulk, Nick was Batman, and Catherine was a little pink lamb. My sister Colleen got to trick-or-treat with the kids at the last few houses of the night and she dressed up as an "injured volleyball player." Thank God she's not injured in real life b/c she's one of the starters on my volleyball team that is playing in the first round of regionals on Tuesday! The Halloween night/party was filled with candy, yummy snacks, punch, and fajitas and "pigs in a blanket" for dinner. We enjoyed spending our Halloween amongst family!
