We had a Great Christmas - Now Bring on 2009!!

We had another great Christmas. We spent Christmas Eve at Frankie's brothers house. Christmas day was at my parents house. And then this last Sunday we went to the farm for Christmas with my dad's side! Colton was very spoiled again this year. It was so much fun to see all of our family and to enjoy some good laughs with everyone! Of course I took way too many pictures (176 to be exact) and I can't post them all so here are just a couple of my favorites!

We are planning to celebrate New Years Eve with family and Friends tonight. We are doing a fancy dinner party at my parents house... with Frankie being our personal chef of course! He is making all kinds of awesome foods including Jumbo Shrimp, Chicken Kabobs, Scallops, King Crab Legs, Filet Minon and Lobster Tail just to name a few! I will be sure to take some pictures of our eventful night! And we are planning to start 2009 off with a bang as well. Saturday night Frankie got us tickets to see Irwin Berlin's White Christmas at the Ordway. I saw the show last time they were in town and it was amazing and I can't wait to see it again. And then on Sunday we are going to the Vikings Playoff Game, Lower Level, Row 15 in the Endzone Baby! I am so excited about this game I can hardly wait! It is gonna be a busy weekend but it is going to be awesome. Well I hope everyone has a Happy New Year and here's wishing you all a great start to 2009!!

Jam Packed Weekend!

We had a very busy weekend. We left Friday at 3:30 to head to Fergus Falls to watch Brad play basketball. We watched a game Friday night and then headed back to the hotel to do some swimming and hang out. Saturday afternoon we watched another game, it was parents day!! They won both games and we had a blast watching Brad play and Colton loved spending time with his uncle. The cutest thing was the two young boys who came up to Brad after the game and asked for his autograph and a picture with him! Here are just a few pics:


At 5:30 on Saturday we started the drive home - and good thing we did becuase the snow storm hit hard that night. Colton was such a little trooper in the vehicle... he just hung out in his carseat and played with his Spartans Basketball that he got from his uncle Brad. We arrived home around 8:30 just in time for me to eat, get Colton in his jammies, pack a bag and head to my friends house for our 10th Annual Girls Christmas Party. We started the tradition our Freshman year in college and have been doing it every since! I have the best Friends a girl could ask for!

Sunday we went over to Grandma Yvonnes house for our Annual Christmas Cookie Baking!! We had a blast and made some delicious cookies and chocolate and candy covered pretzels! Colton had so much fun playing with his cousin... they are the quite the trouble makers now. It was a jam packed weekend and we all needed the rest come Sunday night!

Oh yeah one more thing.. all we want for Christmas is a Superbowl win! GO VIKINGS!
