Dinner in Maui

A day on the beach really builts up an appetite.  We got cleaned up and went to a place called Roy's.  It was amazing!  I was being good and ordered a pear salad, but it all went downhill with dessert, which by the way was delicious!  I can't be too hard on myself after all I am on vacation and we did share one.

Paradise

Kristy and I sweating our asses off in the cabana on the beach... and yet we are still having a wonderful time.  

Christmas Baking!

This is Adri posting for Audrey, because we all now know that she hates Monday's and we would like to see something new from her.
At Christmas time we (Audrey and I) love to bake, everyone else loves to eat what we bake. Today Heather talked Audrey into baking chocolate chip cookies with her, guess who ended up doing all the baking. I do have to say that Audrey makes the best chocolate chip cookies. They always turn out so plump and gooey. Last Sunday Audrey and I baked my Nanny's famous "Baby Jesus Cookies". I know this is a short post but it goes to show everyone that we LOVE sundays.

I HATE Mondays!

Mondays are the worst day of the week for me.  I hate the thought of getting up and starting a whole new week of work.  To make this last Monday even more unpleasant when I walked out to my car to head for work I was greeted with this!

The nerve of some people!  Luckily I am very good at taking out my valuables  every night.  At first glance I thought they hadn't taken anything but with closer examination I realized that my makeup bag was gone!  Who steals a makeup bag?  Really?!?! 

Not to fear over the years I have stocked up on samples and Clinique Bonus Buys and this seems to be getting me through, but I sure do miss my nice makeup!

Dance Dance Dance....

Thursday night was Mikayla's dance recital and it was a long one!  This year they decided to have all the dancers onstage at the end of the performance so that meant no sneaking out early for us.  I think it was the longest thing I have had to sit through in my life, especially since Mikayla was onstage for only a few minutes.  Those few minutes were great through.  She did such an amazing job and I was so proud of her.  She told me right before her recital that she was nervous, scared and excited about getting up on stage.  You couldn't tell when she danced though, she was beautiful!

Thanks to everyone who came to support my little ballerina!  She was so excited to have all of you there.

Seeing the Babies!

After Mikayla was done with dance tonight she wanted to stop and see the horses out by her dad's house.  This one farm has so many horses and they have added quite a few babies this season.  Mikayla and I have tried to count them several times and I think we have gotten as high as 12.  They are so cute!  Mikayla tried to get the babies to come up to the fence so she could pet them but only the adult horses would do it.  Oh well she still had a good time.  

She use to take horseback riding lessons and loved it, but her trainer has not done them for the last couple of summers.  If anyone knows of someone or some place please let me know.

Young Love????

Adri and her family went to Hawaii. Zach and his family went to Disneyland. I had the wonderful job of watching the dogs!  How does that work!  Honestly though they were good and I had fun.  I took Phoebe over to see Yoshi every night.  Zach and Adri have talked about them having puppies so I did a little video taping because I think it might be love?
