World Series 2010

Jason received early birthday presents. He was able to attend a game for each of the series of post season play at the Ballpark. He even got to attend 2 games of the World Series. Here are some of his pictures. Happy birthday Jason!







This is a cool crowd shot of the guys at Game 3 - October 30th




And the same shot for Game 4 - October 31st - notice Jason watches the Rangers in the same position

Finally a Santa Photo!

So most of you have seen last year's Santa fiasco picture...



About a month ago Jackson started drafting his wish list on the Lego website. At that point we kept telling him that he would have to give Santa the list otherwise he wouldn't know what he wants. So on Thursday we took the opportunity to go to Bass Pro to visit Santa. We did it to avoid the crowds but realized that it could take multiple visits to actually get a Santa picture. Jenna went first and told him want she wants.



Then he walks up and gives Santa his two page list and barely talked to him, but he took a picture. Progress!



And even took another picture with Jenna!



It was at that point that we realized some of our friends were doing the same thing. The boys even went and took at picture together. What a difference a year makes.

Jennifer's Birthday

The week of my birthday I had the opportunity to be off from work. I didn't log in to anything work related so it really was a vacation. My goal was to purge through several bins of things before the holidays are upon us. So I was working but I tried to do something for myself each day. I had dessert, walked places instead of driving, got my toes done, got my hair done, went to the movies in the middle of the day with Jason and slept in a few days.

We went to dinner on Macaroni Grill and my kids were good which is really the only gift I needed but Jackson scored me some free chocolate cake! Jenna took the very close up picture so I have like four chins.




The kids drew me birthday cards while we waited for our food.

Scarecrow Day

Last week Jackson's Kindergarten class celebrated Scarecrow Day. Since Jenna had the same celebration when she was in Kindergarten we already had the shirt and supplies or at least so I thought. Now I was off work that week so I did clean out my craft / sewing supplies. So needless to say I did have to purchase some more items. Here is a picture of my two Kindergarten scarecrows.
