Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was a little different this year. I missed not seeing everyone. I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. I am thankful for my family. I hope they all know how much I love them. Life is to short not to spend time with people you love. Thank you Zak for loving me. Thank you Zak for letting me stay home with our kids everyday. Thank you Zak for working hard for our family. Thank you to my kids for being such great kids and fighting over who gets to sit on my lap (the fighting drives me crazy but I love it). Thank you to my sister Jen for calling me every morning and just being you. Thank you Steve and Cathy for everything you do for us. Thank you Mom for always caring about us. Thank you Dad for calling me this week. Thank you to all my family and friends for caring enough to look at my blog. I love you all.



Breakfast at my Mom's. Zak's favorite meal.

My two beautiful children.

Our Cute family

Dinner at the Zabriskie's. We picked up Grandma Mac and brought her to dinner. I hope she enjoyed getting out of that place for a couple hours. She is a great lady!

Hawaii

Here are a few pictures from our Anniversary trip to Maui!!! We had so much fun, I wish we could go back and take the kids. I have about 200 pictures of sunsets, I love them, they change so much. I will probably add more later.

The kids souvenirs.

Too cute!

Halloween pics!!!

Halloween is such a fun time! I feel like the month of October went by so fast (could have been because I was in Hawaii for a week). I will post those pictures later. I love all the things there are to do in the month of October. We went to Gardner Village to check out the witches, we also went to Cornbelly's corn maze, Mason had a costume parade at school and bowling, and my favorite thing is the Zabriskie Halloween Party. I love to see all the fun costumes and just get together with friends and family. Here are a few pics from our fun festivities....

Gardner Village

We went to Gardner Village this week, we try to go every year to take pictures with the witches. It was really crowded this year, so we did not get as many pictures with the witches as I would of liked. The kids were more interested in watching all the people instead of looking at the camera. Here are a some of the pictures....

Mason riding the pony, Katie was afraid.

Katie had half of a butterfly painted on her face, she did not want her to finish.

Mason had his whole face painted. Too cute!

We went a showed Papa! Same mustaches!!

Swimming

We have been trying to swim as much as we possible can before it gets to cold. Mason swims so good, he is better than me (thats not saying much though). Mason can dive off the side to get the diving rings, swim under water and dive off the board. I am so glad we put him in swim lessons this year, it gave him so much confidence. Katie has started to swim on her own with the water wings (we have been calling them bracelets). I think next year she might learn how to swim with out the bracelets. Katie asks everyday if we are going swimming. Her princess swimsuit is in her backpack just in case. I hope we get to swim a few more times, the kids love it so much.

Fall T-Ball

Mason is playing Fall T-Ball at Gene Fullmer Rec Center. Logan McDermaid is also playing with him, they are having lots of fun. Mason looks forward to seeing Logan at the games. Katie also gets to play with Taylor during the games.

Mason Bowling

Well my boy is officially a bowler!!! My grandma would be so proud. I wish she was here to see him. He is bowling Saturday mornings with a boy named Eian. I actually bowled with Eian's mom when I was a junior bowler. Mason had so much fun and bowled really well!!! He also gets a cool bowling shirt, I am sure he will love it.

Mason ready to bowl.

Yes he bowled a 53 is first game!!!

A 36 his second game.

This is his team mate Eian. They are talking to a coach.

Eian, Mason and Desirae.

Way to start the league off with a 44 average! Great Job!!!
