Christmas Performances...

We started the performances
with Miss Allikaye's
Christmas program
at her school.
Here is the beauty
prior to going...
so perdy!

Uh- oh...
here is a peek at the big twin prego belly!!
Ah!
Where's AK?

Then came the beautiful singing...

Allikaye may be shy to those she doesn't know too well..
but get that girl on stage...
and she lights up!!

Smiling for mama as she walked out...
Here is Allikaye with 2 of her best friends...
Mallory and Kaida...

Sweet friends!

Then came performance number two!
Her Dance Christmas Recital!
She danced to
"Butterfly Kisses"
and of course, I cried through the whole thing!
She just amazes me!

This is post performance...
with the classic
"pose with the flowers" picture!

Proud mama...

Then we headed to see Santa!

Pumpkin Patch 2011!!

Fun time at the Pumpkin Patch
this year with our besties!

Let's start with a couple family pictures!

Hmmm...not so bad...
why is it so hard to get a family picture?
And there is only 3 of us!
We've got 2 more coming to these pictures!!

Allikaye made a best friend...
a sweet donkey...

She was talking to her...
I asked her what she was saying and she said,
"I was saying 'I love you' to her"

We picked out the chosen pumpkins...

Loved being with our pals...
Allikaye and Mallory...

Jumped on a big jump pad thing...

Daddy had some fun on this too...

We love Estes

We headed to Estes Park in our beautiful Coloradofor a fun mini-vacation over Labor Day.
 I have to share the fun memory!

We started in
Rocky Mountain National Park...
so pretty!

My hot man and sassy pants...

We had fun scoping out deer outside
the door of our cute little condo...
see it back there?

Our condo was along Fall River...
and there was a hot tub spa in the room -
which was where AK spent most of her time!

When we got out...

Matt and AK took over the
go-carts!

Woohoooo...

Attempted the big slide
(I totally rode this when I was a little girl!).
However...
Matt had to ride down solo.
Miss Thang is usually so brave -
but this slide was a no-go.

Mini-golfing for the first time for Allikaye...
She loved it!!
She said she needed to take a picture
of her golfing to show the boys in her class
that she can golf too!

Mama could still swing -

the pregnant belly wasn't getting in the way yet!
Can't say the same for right now!
I look 6 months pregnant with these twins in me!
Even though I am about 3 months...
there are 2! Ah!

Allikaye was bossy with getting pictures taken -
she demanded one with this guy...

We really love going up to Estes.
It is so beautiful -
a Colorado Treasure!
