The Zoo

| January 14th, 2010 | → 1 Comments |

While we were in Arizona Brett’s parents found this zoo that is supposed to be like the best zoo ever.  It was a really fun because we were actually really close to all the animals.  The kids really enjoyed feeding the birds.  That was a really fun thing I have never seen at any zoo before.  They had certain times of the day where people can go in and feed and hold the birds.  When the time was over they told us we had about one minuet to get out or the birds would show us what they were just eating…you know bird droppings.  So right then I decided it was time to go.  I didn’t want to see if it was true.

They also had a really cute petting zoo.  They had tons of goats and deer.  The baby goats were so small and so cute.  Kyla just loved them.  They also had a cute petting zoo for turtles.  Kyla was a little afraid at first but got a little better after a while.

The kids also got to touch stingrays.  Kyla was a little scared of those at first too.  After just a minuet she was about to jump in with them.  It was really cute.

It was really hard for most of the adults to feed the giraffes.  The were almost just out of reach.  Well Brett decided he knew of a way to let Kyla feed them.  I will just let the pictures talk for themselves…

Christmas

| January 14th, 2010 | → 0 Comments |

We had a very fun Christmas.  We had what felt like a million parties to attend.  Kyla had so much fun at all of them.  She loved getting presents and toys at each one.  She had such a great time playing with all of her cousins too.  These are just a few of the pictures from the parties.  Up first was at my Moms(Grandma Margo and Gary) house.  I have way to many pictures to show you so I am only showing you some of them.  Kyla loves the binoculars that she got.  She still doesn’t ever take them off.  She uses them as a camera sometimes and takes pictures of everything.  In the other pictures she is excited because she got some lip gloss.  She just calls it lips.  So its always “Mom put on lips.”  She loves lips!  There where more toys she really loves and never likes to stop playing with but I am not going to blab on and on about all of them.  Thanks Grandma Margo and Grandpa Gary!

Next up is the party at my Dads house (Grandpa Scubba Steve and Grandma Brenda).  We couldn’t bring what they really bought for Kyla because it wouldn’t fit in the car so we brought the next best thing that would still make Kyla happy.  We also brought the wrong gift for me.  It is not surprising that I did that.  We all know I am bad at these things.  In my defense I was working until right when we needed to go to the party.  So it was a mistake made very fast so we could rush to the party.  We made some gingerbread houses.  That was really fun.  Every once in a while when Kyla was decorating she would slip one in her mouth instead of on the house.  She was really sneaky about it.  It was really cute.  I didn’t get a picture of the finished houses(I know I am lame) but look at the Rudolph I made for mine and Kyla’s house.  Cute huh!  Well here are some pics.  Thanks Grandpa Steve and Grandma Brenda!

On Christmas Eve it is a family tradition from my family for Santa to bring us pj’s to wear that night.  I always love getting new pj’s and Kyla seemed to love it as well.  Kyla loved her pj’s so much she has been wearing them every night since then.  Not much else to show or say hear.  It was really late so we just came home, opened the presents and went to bed.  I already knew the pj’s Santa got for me but as you can see we thought we would play up the reactions a bit for Kyla(and the camera).
