As Promised

So, as some of you know, my husband went hunting for the first time back in October. I wasn't so sure about it, it kind of grosses me out, but David loved it! He did get a deer while he was there and made me promise to post the pics. They aren't really gruesome or anything, but if you don't want to see a dead deer, DON'T scroll down! While the deer part is gross, I do think my husband looks hot as a hunter! As for those of you wondering if we have eaten any meat yet, my husband has eaten a steak and I have tried the jerky. We have yet to try the ground meat. Sorry if the pics are not great, they were taken from a cell phone camera. David forgot to charge or check ours before he left!

Beautiful Day!

Last Saturday was a beautiful day so we decided to take the boys to see the dolphins and secret garden at the Mirage. The boys had a blast! Thanks to this friend for the recommendation! Spencer could not get enough of the dolphins. They have a 2 month old baby dolphin and a bunch of 6 month old tiger cubs. They also give discounts to locals so make sure to ask!

Ahh, happiness!
Tiger cubs! They also had lions and alpacas. It was amazing how well groomed all the animals were.

I think almost all the pictures I have of Spencer are the back of his head! lol!

They don't do a show or anything, but the have trainers working with the dolphins throughout the day.

Jaxon wanted to climb in with the dolphins! Spencer thought he could ride them! Thank you Backyardigans! He is still convinced he can "another day."

Happy Halloween!

We had a great Halloween this year. These are the only pics I have from before our trunk or treat. Our camera does not like the dark. I also still don't really know how to work it yet either. After Super Saturday, I hope to have some time to read the manual. Spencer was Clifford and Jaxon was a monkey. Spencer wanted his picture taken with Coby since he was a dog. Coby was not so cooperative. :)

Spencer and his "orange teeth"

We had a get together on Halloween morning with Spencer and his friends. I made cupcakes for the "cupcake walk." I had a little too much fun! I also sent some to David's work. :)

Eating cupcakes! I love this picture of Brayden! (Taken by Chelsea not me!)

The boys eating and playing cars. Such boys!

After our party with our friends we headed straight to David's work for their Halloween party. They always have a lot of fun. They ordered lunch, played some games and awarded prizes.

Jaxon had way too much candy that day!

The juniors had to wrap their seniors with t.p. David and his junior thought they were smart doing it this way. They did NOT win. :)

They also had a pumpkin carving contest and Spencer helped keep track of the vote. I think he might have added a few votes here or there. :)

They also had a relay race with pupkins. It started out they had to hold the pumpkin between their elbows, but then David and his junior tied so they moved the pumpkin to their knees. This was hillarious! Especially since Jason was wearing a toga! David started celebrating too early though, he lost this race!

Our happy family. David and I were Alice and the Mad Hatter. It was so fun dressing up this year. I would like to be more creative next year though. :)

On Halloween night, we headed over to Tina and Radford's so the boys could go trick or treating together. They were so cute in their costumes! At one of the houses their was a witch on the door that made noises and the boys were not too sure about it. The conversation went something like this, "You knock again. No you knock!" It was so funny! Finally the people heard the witch keep going off and answered the door! LOL! After they got their candy the man at the door set the witch off again and Spencer high tailed it out of there! It was SO funny! Overall it was a perfect ending to our very fun filled Halloween!

Happy Birthday to me!

I know this post is past due. I just have not had the time to really blog in a while. Also, most of these pictures were taken later on my celebration with my parents. My birthday was back on the 13th. My husband bought me roses, which I love. :) Also we went to dinner on the Friday before to P.F. Chang's and then to see Jay Leno. We were hooked up with amazing seats thanks to some great friends of ours. I would post a link to their blog, but they are silly and have a private blog! J/K! Love you guys! Anyway, the show was great! We sat in the middle of the third row, I don't think it could have been any better. Sadly, I have no pictures of the evening because I forgot to tell my husband to take pictures. It is just not something he remembers. On my actual birthday, David had to work late and then help me with enrichment stuff all night, so it was good that we had already celebrated. About a week and a half later we had my parents over for some yummy ice cream cake. It was kind of fun because it made my birthday last all month!

My husband thought he was so funny. Just because he's old, doesn't mean I am yet!


My roses. I also received some pink ones the next day.
