Boomers

We wanted to do some fun family activities over the kids holiday break since Ben will shortly be leaving us for quite a few months. Here we are at a place in Vista, California,called Boomers. Tons of stuff to do....mini golf, go carts, bumper boats, batting cages, play area, rides, games etc

Here's what Kymber did a lot of....

Bumper boats

Patiently waiting his turn

Kiddie rides

Go karts

Hmmmmmm........

Parent break

Selfies.....

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas from our home (75 degrees today) to yours! 

We love and miss everyone!

Happy Christmas Eve!!

Making Christmas memories....

We got Ben a plane ticket to visit his family in Texas for a few days so I decided that I wanted to make some fun memories with Kendall and Isaac while he was gone. 

(My energy is way low with the pregnancy and my hip very painful. I feel like they get the short end a lot while I am pregnant so I am seizing these few days while Ben has hurricane Kymber to grab some memories with the oldest two.)

Today after church, we dove into this cookbook that Kendall checked out of the library. (She was so very excited to pick out recipes and cook with me!)

We decided on slurpy spaghetti. (By the way the sauce was delicious!!)

Tonight we are going to a movie together!

~Sometimes the small things are the big things.....

Best early Christmas present

My dad mailed us some homemade Pennsylvania maple syrup. Isaac and I have already had a taste!!

21 months....

So the past few months I have been a few days late getting Kymber's monthly birthday up so this month I am trying to be better! Here we are a few days early....

Some days there are just no words to describe this spunky child. She can entertain you one minute and drive you insane the next.

Kymber is definitely her own person and is not afraid to show it. I love that she has her own unique personality!

So hard to believe in 3 months she will be 2!!

Christmas Military brunch

On Saturday, we went to the military brunch at church. They had many activities for the adults and the kids. I enjoyed being with adults that didn't involve physical therapy, OB appointments, or kids activities.

Here are the kiddos prior to leaving the house!
