Brylee's birthday

Happy Birthday to Brylee!! I can't believe she is two already, seems like time is passing us by.
Here are her pictures we had done.

No matter how many times I scanned this picture it wouldn't come out right.

And here is her party. Here she is on her very own 4 wheeler.

She was starting to get the hang of it.

She loved the balloons Kimberlen gave her.

She was really good at opening presents this year

And would take every piece of paper off.

BIG eye in her magnifying glass.

Minnie mouse singing to her.

She loved this card.

Showing off her clothes.

She wanted that dress on right then.

Getting the paper off her new chair.

And the big ball she has wanted every time we go to the store.

Her leaf cake with ladybugs.

The pose she did while we were singing happy birthday to her.

Blowing out the candles.

Cousin Daisee thought she could eat ice cream right out of the carton.

Yummy cake.

She liked the ice cream too.

She had a fun party and received some great gifts. Thanks to all that helped celebrate!

Nascar in Vegas 2011

Finally a getaway together without the kids!!

We headed to Vegas with my parents for the Nascar Race last week. We had so much fun!
Se started with the World of Outlaws on Wed night and it was freezing and windy.

Eric a little cold.

My mom trying to stay warm.

One of the cars we were cheering for. They go so fast I didn't get many pictures of them.

The gang at the race.

John Force's funny car. This is the next thing we will come to see.


Mom acting like Uncle Jimmy.

The boy's got to ride in drift cars. They were all driven by professional drifters and gave each person a great taste of what they do.

Here goes Eric.

Eric getting out of his ride.

Dad getting into his car. This driver was by far the most "dangerous."

Justin getting into the drifter.

Eric and Justin with Miss Sprint Cup and the actual trophy for the race winner.

Our great Family picture.

Eric and my Dad ran into this girl last year at the exact same place eating a big hot dog and her she is again. They think they are pretty funny.

Me in the Dale Jr. car.

"Roughing" it after one of the races. Tough to sit in the Lazy boy and watch the tv.

Eric trying his luck at tire changing. Unfortunately he was not the fastest one. But he did get to be on the jumbo screen for all to see.

Cool car and paint job.

Mom and Dad at the race.

Dads Car.

Eric's car.

We had great competition between the two cars and Dad and Eric. Unfortunately Eric's car crashed out and Dads kept going back and forth the whole race. It was alot of fun.

Thanks again for the great Christmas present Mom and Dad and for the great time.

Incredible Pizza/Planet Play

On Presidents Day while the kids were out of school we took them over to Incredible Pizza which is going to be Play Planet soon. Its like a big arcade with ride on's. The kids had a blast. Brylee and Maycee loved playing on the indoor jungle gym.

Kimberlen was too big but for the little time we had it to ourselves we let her go up and down the big slide with Brylee.

This was like a virtual ride and would move with the picture and shake you all around. It even had a fan so it felt like the wind was blowing on you.

Brylee snuck on for a ride too. She thought it was super funny.

Driving cars was fun but they needed our help for the peddles.

The two older girls wanted to play laser tag but after waiting for 30 mins they still didn't get on so we had dessert instead. It was a great bit of family time.

Valentines

For Valentines/Eric and My birthday, we had my parents and Desiree and her kids over for dinner on Sunday before V-Day.

My Mom bought the best steaks that we have ever had. They are called Las Vegas Steaks and the only place to get them is at Don's Meats in Sunset. They are a little pricey so we only have them occasionally. They are wrapped with about 4 strips of thick cut bacon and are about 2-3 inches thick and seasoned prefectly. I should have taken a picture of them.....they are wonderful. Anyway dinner was great and we had a nice day visiting and playing with the kids.

Here is Hudson giving Maycee the evil eye. They either get along great or fight terribly. This was a good day.

Maycee's messy face showing us she is eating her meat.

I made a great red jello dessert for the kids. Daisee loved it and it was everywhere.

Brylee did really well at feeding it to herself......with a bit of Grandmas help.

Did I say Daisee loved it......We had to strip her down at the table and put her straight in the tub with Brylee. Brylee freaks out everytime she hears the water running in the bathtub and starts taking off her clothes whether it is for or not. Great fun!

On Valentines Day I made some heart shaped cookies from the funfetti cookie mix. That stuff is good the cookies tasted just like the cake batter...which I love. Needless to say I ate most of them.

I made the girls wait til Eric got home to open their Valentines gift. They could hardly wait when he walked in the door.

Maycee with her Go FISH

Kimberlen and Old MAID.

Brylee and a bear bowl.

This was their treasures....heart shaped plates, card games, a bowl and they also got pinwheels.

I was surprised with roses and a card. I forgot to take a picture of the roses. They were read and beautiful. Love you guys!!

Randomness

I guess I should have titled it Brylee-ness, since most of these are of her.

This is what she does while both sisters are at school. This time she has Maycee's boots, backpack and doll. She was walking around saying "skoo, Maycee at skoo".

When I asked her if she wants to go to school she gets excited and says YES!

Her first Piggy Tails.

I just love them.

This is a little table I have had forever. It used to be a cherry wood color and was boring. I sure love it now.

We let her wear pannies one morning after she pee peed on the toilet. She thought she was neat stuff. They were wet soon after this.

She decided to do her own hair. I think she had five headbands on.

It was cute.
