Sidetracked Sledding

On our way to Las Vegas, we decided to take the kids sledding. We drove past Victorville and really just parked by the side of one of the resorts that wasn't even open yet and helped ourselves. No one seemed to care. We only stayed about 45 minutes which was plenty for us to enjoy. The kids looooved it!

We only had time for a mini snowman :)

Triton Football Party '12

We finally had our end of season football party. Tre was so happy to see all of his buddies. Plus, he wasn't expecting a trophy! It was a family event so you can only guess how crazy it was. They also gifted Freddy for being a coach with a signed picture from the team. Until next year... :)

Night Out With Nana and Papa

My parents have been waiting for the kids to be the right age to have a night out and a sleep over! They were so excited that they are now "mature" enough to do it! They went to "Happy Feet 2", stayed up late and got up way too early! :) Hope this will be one of many to come...

Birfday Boys

Knox turned 2 a few weeks ago!! He was about an hour shy of being born on his dad's birthday. And Freddy's birthday is the day before his dad's, so we decided to have a party for our 3 generations of Kuhn men. A simple party at the park with pizza, cake, and family did the trick. Happy Birthday boys!! I love you all! Fred, for the man you created... Freddy, for the man that you are... and Knox, for the man you will become! My life is blessed with exceptional men!!

Cabo '11

Freddy and I haven't taken a trip without the kids for about 4 years! So we got super excited when we found out we had a ton of resort points to go to Cabo San Lucas with Spencer, Reta, Moe and Amy! To be honest, I wasn't that excited with having to arrange a babysitter, being large with child and I hate traveling. It really wasn't until I was there that I realized how much I needed it.
We actually left on Freddy's birthday and thought we would be able to celebrate in Cabo except the airline screwed up our flight plans and we ended up having to stay our first vacation night in lovely Phoenix. (At least that upgraded us to first class.) We ended up going to Ruth's Chris anyway for a nice birthday dinner.
So traveling at the beginning was not ideal, but as soon as we got there, I was really able to just let my hair down. I guess I never really realized how much time and energy the kids really are. I was able to feel like a normal person, pregnant and all.
We stay at Fiestamericana every time. The room was gorgeous and so spacious and thankfully had AC! It was 95+ degrees the whole time.
The boys surfed everyday. There was lots of pool time in all of the infinity pools. Many nights of going into town for dinner and movies. I even got an amazing massage! (Exhale...) And there was a day where I literally laid in bed, ate crap and watched what ever I wanted on TV. Do you know how many mornings I've woken up and longed to have just one day like that?!
Of course, by the end of the week, I was absolutely missing my babies. Grass is always greener... right?
It was nice to come home to my sweet children who I am absolutely too hard on sometimes and forget how wonderful and how good they really are. I have great kids. So blessed. I guess I'll just need to go on more trips and get pampered just a little more so I realize that more often. :)
Thank you Blair and Shanna for taking Brooklyn! She loves you guys! And thank you Heather for mothering the boys for the week. My trust with you kept me at ease the whole trip.

Nice to have a personal tray whilst waiting for our plane.

Ruth's Chris

Luxurious 1st class 'cause it's so luxurious with 2 more inches of leg space.

Birthday lunch at the famous LAX restaurant.

Finally making it!!

Our room really was amazing!

Lovely Reta at one of our pools.

This guy decided to join us for lunch :)

Cool human statue. Peek a boo Spencer...

In the movie theater. Hmmm, maybe a little too much sun that day?

I caught Freddy makin' moves on Julieanne Hough.  Naughty boy. 

Woooork!... Covergirl!!

I did it. I made the big time. I'm now a model. (Haaaaaaaaaa!) No, I did a little model shoot for a maternity site and they let me have some of the shots. I apologize if I offend with the naked belly. They're not THAT cute uncovered...

Halloween '11

It's so nice to be so close to family! We had a get together with some of the cousins this year and had a great night of trick-or-treating. Once Knox figured out what we were doing, he was in hog heaven!

So glad the kids were up to doing a theme this year. Such good sports!

Cutest Yoda ever!!

Cousin Thor in candy action!

This the moment the light bulb went off...
