Football

Its been so long since I have blogged. I have tried a few times but things have changed on blogger and I couldn't figure out how to upload pictures. Now I can't seem to find the right pictures so we will just start here and see where we go with it. 

Bridgers last football game this year with the Puyallup Jr Vikings at Sparks Stadium October 2013

 Bridger is number 8, in all purple.

Daddy Daughter Dance (last night)

Last night Kevin and Kimber went to our church (stake) Daddy Daughter Dance

 Refreshments were a Milk and Cookie Bar. Chocolate, Strawberry or Regular Milk and all kinds of Cookies. It was Beautifully set up. 

 Dancing the night away. Which was wonderful since originally when Kevin told her about the dance and asked her to go with him, without missing a beat, she replied "I'm busy that night" (we were worried it wasn't going to go over well) 

 They had a photo booth set up for professional pictures. I think this is one of the BEST I have ever seen. 

 Girls from our Stake ages 3 to 11 with their Dads or other trusted adult male. There were over 320 people in attendance and it was Amazing. The dads danced most of the time. Which had they been at a wedding reception with their wives, I don't think they would have dance so much but all "their" peers were out dancing and who wants to disappoint their daughters. They played a few popular songs and all the girls squealed with delight. 

As the Primary President of course I volunteered to help with the dance so I could spy. But again, it was such an amazing event that was truly inspired. 

Wordless Wednesday

Maybe not wordless haha. Wednesdays are early out days in our school district. So Bridger and Kimber take piano lessons right after school. Brooklyn is in Bridgers class, she also takes piano lessons from our friend Jennifer. While they each take turns doing their half hour lesson, the others work on their homework. Or at least that is the plan.

 Jennifer and Kimber

 Kimber's cute little hands playing the piano. 

 I wish I had her great posture. 

 According to Jennifer, Bridger has some natural talent. He also has natural bratty talent when it comes to me taking his picture.

 Not as little has Kimber's hands but still cute. 

 Some day he will wish he had his tongue in his mouth in all his pictures. But until then I will post them all on my blog which is all over the Internet. Have fun with that when the girls google your name Bridger. 

Happy New Year

Happy New Year to all our friends and family. We have had a wonderful year. It was not perfect but we count our many blessings and name them one by one. Honestly, looking back I can't remember anything horrible. I like to think of all the positive. 

We met up with "part" of the Hanis family. Baba, Mike, Peggy, Pat, Sarah, Nathan, Aileena, Jarrett, Ella, Chase, Greg, Liz, Scott, Anna, Payton, Mikey, Brett, Chris, Wendy, Kyle, Kevin, Kevin, myself, Bridger, Kimber and a friend for Mexican food at our favorite Mexican Restaurant in Renton at Torero's

 Bridger just turned 8 in November and is almost as tall as his 89 year old Baba. 

Kimber and Baba

 When we got home we started our 2nd annual tradition of popping a balloon (every hour, although we were running out of time so this year it was...well you will see below) Started tonight at 6:45. 

 Popped the first balloon at 7pm. Each balloon has an activity inside. The first activity was a game of Kimber's choice. (while they got ready, I did the dishes really quick, yeah, my 7pm activity) Kimber picked the Barrel of Monkey game. 

Bridger's turn was at 7:30pm. His slip of paper inside his balloon was to take a flash light and run down to the mail box and back (which is about 6 houses away) Kimber ran down and back. Bridger ran it twice. 

8pm, Kimbers turn was the ever favorite, clean your room. (my 8pm was to start a load of laundry) 

9pm, Bridgers turn was to play a game. He picked Time Shock. (its about the time that everything makes Kimber cry, must be bed time. I wish it was) 

10pm Kimber popped the next balloon. The slip of paper said to go to the park. They wanted to go to the playground at their school. A good time to get out of the house to wake up Kevin and I, haha

The spinney toy was frozen. 

 Bridger actually slid down the parallel bars and froze his legs. 

 He "was" going to go down the slide but changed his mind. haha. It was pretty cold out tonight. 

11pm Bridgers turn. It said to watch a movie. Awww Time to relax. 

11:55pm, the last balloon. They both had one with the same saying on the slip of paper inside. Happy New Year with Silly String. (Kimber had been asleep) 

Happy New Year to Everyone from all of us. 

Christmas Games

Bridger got me the Word with Friends game for Christmas since he knows I like to play it on my phone (because my phone tells me when its not a real word haha) So tonight Kevin, Bridger, Kimber and I played and had a lot of fun. 

 My parents got Kimber a Barrel of Monkeys (funny thing is both kids screamed when they saw it, that that is on Toy Story)

Kyler got the Wipe Out game for the Wii and all the kids were playing that most of the afternoon. Great Christmas was had by all.
