A Day in the Life of Kate!: Dec 27, 2011

Tuesday, December 27, 2011

Today was Ella Cross' (Sydney's sister and Miss Lori's daughter) 2nd birthday party at the gymnastics place. Miss Courtney and Logan were also there and we all got to play together. We had yummy cookie cake, played games and played and played with all the gymnastics equipment. I had a blast!
Love,

I love the earings!

Adult gift exchange

It actually was not as boring as I thought it would be (without getting a present and all). :) I had a job to do. Once all the kids went to bed I passed out the presents to the adults and when they would steal a present the stealer would tell me and I would break the bad news to the owner by taking the present and bringing it to the stealer! There were really good presents and lots of things stolen. Papa, Nama and Daddy battled it out over a Jalepenos gift card (Papa got it), Papa and Mommy and Daddy battled over a Dean and Delucca gift card (Daddy got it)...it was great fun!
Love,

Kid gift exchange

We did a kid gift exchange at Nama's house. It was really cool. You will never believe what Anna got me? Squinkees! I have been wanting those things forever, but mom said they were silly and that she did not understand them. She also told me they were too small and dangerous (basically, a lot of things to make me not like them...but I love them). Aunt Jenny teased me and called them "Stinkies", but she got them for me. I am so lucky! I even got a dispenser to play with them in!

Anna LOVED her singing Justin Beiber toothbrush, her flashlight and tent!

I loved my Squinkees and Barbie head (to do he hair)

Ashley loved her Mickey doll and book!

Love,

Kate

Breakfast was on Gigi!!!

Gigi made breakfast for all of us. It was so yummy...sausage ring with eggs, her homemade bread (yummy), OJ and lots of goodies! Looks like Gigi had some fun cooking it!! heehee! Thanks for breakfast Gigi!

Cards and good times!

We had so much fun! I just realized mommy did not get any pictures of Uncle Bob...he was at Christmas too!
Love,
Kate

I practiced my card playing skill with Nama and Papa too!

Like daddy like daughter

Hopefully I have not inherited the "close your eyes during every picture" trait from my dad!
Love,
Kate

Merry Christmas...while driving my mom BONKERS!!

Mom always wants to get just the right Christmas family picture...I did not make it easy for her this year!!!
Love,
Kate

Tongue sticking out is so funny

Here is a little more and a devil smile (mom, what are you doing?)

I can't get enough of the tongue...I am hilarious!

At this point everyone is telling me to stop sticking out my tongue....an audience...awesome!

Seeing if Dad is thinking this is as funny as I do!

Looks like I succeeded in making mom chuckle a bit!

I will try another tactic...pulling away!

They must have bribed me with something, because these last 2 are pretty cute!

Christmas Day at the Fimmen's

We always spend Christmas day and Nama and Papa's house! This year we are celebrating Christmas 2 times at their house. On Christmas Day and on New Years Day (when Uncle Tom, Aunt Carolyn, Tom, Meghan and Matt are in town). We got to open just a few gifts (Anna and I did a gift exchange and the adults did a good gift exchange too). We had so much fun...I LOVE Christmas and spending it with all my family!
Love,
Kate
