Beckett's Birthday Sleepover

I saved my birthday sleepover until after the holiday frenzy was over. I had my friends Eli, Austin, Anthony, Calvin and Tyler over. We had pizza, chips and ice cream sundaes, played lots of video games and watched most of How to Train Your Dragon...until Dad came down about midnight and made us go to sleep.

New Year's Eve

We spent New Year's Eve with the Wilson's and had a great time! We started with dinner at Bravo, then went to their house for some games. The evening went very fast but we had so much fun!

The kids pizza was HUGE!

A serious Connect 4 tournament

Beckett was the winner!

$1 round bingo...the Andreasen's cleaned up here too!

Kalia won all this money!!

Fireworks at midnight!

Gingerbread Houses

We did our annual gingerbread houses, but this year invited our friends, the Wilsons, over to do one with us. We made them a little smaller this year, but still had so much fun!!

The Chiefs were playing the Bears that night so our neighbor, JJ (originally from Chicago and a Bears fan), came over to watch with us. Here I am talking football with him. He went home during halftime and came back with Chiefs gear on! It was so funny!  

November 2019

We had a fun sleepover with our friends, Austin & Isaac! 

Watching a movie in 3D 

Special pancakes the next morning with sprinkles and whip cream! 

 

We went to the Liberty North production of Cinderella. It was SOOOO good! Our babysitter, Sophia, was in it and it was so fun watching her!

We found Sophia afterwards!

Yes, this is Hallowen 2019...fortunately for Mom & Dad, both Kalia & I wanted to wear the same costume that we wore last year! So here's a t-rex and black cat:

We ventured out with the neighbors...

and the moms were ready!

I didn't stay out too long...I thought it was much more important to be home by 7 to watch Thursday night football. Haha! 

Kalia stayed out a bit longer with her friend, Vivian, then came home with all her "goods"! 

We picked through our candy and kept a few of our favorites, then loaded everything up back in the bucket and sent it to school for the teacher's lounge (Kalia's idea)!
