Chuck E Cheese!

Geoffrey plays skee-ball like a pro!

All of the kiddos love the roller coaster simulator... especially Grayson!

How many kids can we fit on this ride...?

A ladies man already...!

Geoffrey is the ticket king!

Abbie looks scared to death and Evan is thinking... "get over it Abbie.. I got this!"

Grayson... still on the roller coaster! =)

Abbie "cruising" on the jet-skis!

Evan preferred the roller coaster simulator that was more his size!

Since I'm always taking the pictures... Evan and I had Chuck E Cheese take one of us together!

It was the coldest night of the year but did we stay home in the warmth...? Nope! Took the kiddos and headed to Chuck E Cheese! They all love it and always have a great time! What they don't yet understand is it's a little bit of a break for Mom and Dad too! =)

Abbie's Holiday Play!

The sweetest reindeer in the bunch... we are so proud!

I know this post comes a little out of order... but I almost forgot to post the pics from Abbie's last play at The New School! Kindergarten and First Grade put on "A Magical Forest" holiday play every year and this year Abbie got to be a reindeer! She was SO excited and they absolutly could not have been any cuter! It was a bittersweet moment for sure and made memories that we will never forget!

Boys Will Be Boys!

To say the boys all needed a haircut would be an understatement (judging by the amount of hair that fell to the floor as they got their haircuts)! I took Evan and Grayson to a great place for kids haircuts called "Snip-It's" here in OKC. Then when we picked Geoffrey up and he saw how great they looked... he of course wanted his done too! They all look SO cute with their new "crazy, spiky, wild boy haircuts!"

A Day at the OKC Zoo!

The weather was nice and the kids were dying to do something "fun"... (as if having 4 kids around isn't always fun =)... so we decided to load them up and head to the zoo. We saw lots of animals... but as usual, I'd rather take pics of the kiddos! They kept us laughing most of the time too with their interpretations of some of the animals. My fav's were: Geoffrey: (in a room with 5-10 strangers looking at the Gorillas) "Look Mom... I'd say that one's definetly female!", Abbie: (looking at the condor) "Look at that giant turkey!", and Grayson: (chasing the roaming peacocks) "Let's catch the chickens!" They also wanted their pictures taken at every animal statue we came too, made "pressed" pennies with various animals on each, and fed the ducks our goldfish snacks. We love them all so much and had a great time spending the day with them at the zoo!

Abbie's 1st Day at Quail Creek!

Today was Abbie's 1st day at Quail Creek... her new elementary school in Oklahoma City! Needless to say, she was SO excited to get to go to the same school as Geoffrey and Grayson... I even think that was enough of a distraction that she didn't mind making the switch to uniforms =) We love you sweet girl and are looking forward to a great Spring semester for you and the boys at Quail Creek!

More Fun Kid Pics!

We LOVE our kiddos... and I LOVE taking their pictures! =) Aren't they great!?!

New Years Eve 2008

New Year's Eve 2008 was quite eventful ... to say the least! =) To start the evening, the dinner menu was completly planned by our wonderful kids! Hot dogs, mac and cheese, chips and dip, and dessert! YUM! Later the kids decked themselves out in party hats... leis... and rode their new scooters while blowing their whistles! Kris started a fire in the Chiminea and the kids had a blast playing outside! After it got too cold.. they came inside and made chocolate fondue dipping pretzel rods, marshmellows, and Abbie's idea... apples! Then, time for a fun game of Pictureka! All of the kids enjoyed their new "New Years" party games! After Grayson and Evan went to bed... Abbie and Geoffrey curled up on the couch to wait for the ball drop and they actually made it until midnight!! To celebrate they drank their "champagne" and then off to bed... by the looks of the pictures they were ready for it! It was a fun first New Year's celebration together... one we will never forget!
