Toy shopping

Leave a reply

After a day out eating and shopping and Temple visiting with her Yaiyai (I forgot the camera!) we met up with Grandpa and cousins at a toy story. The Grandpaaa let the kids roam the store and pick out anything they wanted. I went around with my two vetoing items that were far too expensive.

Kaylee has been asking for a Twilight Sparkle for a couple of years. She was VERY happy to finally get one.

I look super annoyed while I am price checking Regan's pick. I really wasn't though. Promise.

Such a fun day. Jon, Shannon, Cole, and I took the kiddos to see Frozen. LOVED IT!

Then we headed back to our house for the cousins to go crazy and wild while I whipped up some pizza for dinner.

This is what happens when you tell Regan he cannot nap, but has to come have fun with cousins and eat his FAVORITE dinner. I am such a meanie.

Since we were SO very close we took the kids to the Mesa Temple and visitor center after were finished up at the AZ Natural Museum.

Regan discover the room full or Nativities from around the world. "Mom, can I go into the Christmas room?" Awwww. IMG_7015 IMG_7017 IMG_7018"Hey guys, look it Earf!" IMG_7019After our awesome, but long day I jumped all over Shannon's suggestion of dinner out. So we called up the Hubbies and pitched the idea to them. And before you know it we had our gaggle at Red Robin for dinner.IMG_7025 IMG_7058 IMG_7067

Our waiter felt bad about Regan getting gooey melty cheese on his burger. He made Regan a balloon sword to help stave the tears when we sent Regan's food back to the kitchen. (It was my first time having to send food back to be fixed. Awkward.) He made a balloon something for five of the kids, and then ran out of balloons before Kaylee could get one. So sad. The look of dissapointment on her face broke my heart.IMG_7069But she just took a deep breath and walked out of the restaurant without saying a thing about being the only kid that didn't get a fun balloon. I was so impressed. She often amazes me with her maturity. This Red Robin had a balloon stand of regular balloons for kids. So her Uncle Dwayne snagged her a purple one. She also got lots of good praise from the adults for her great attitude about a cruddy situation.

Isaac and Rebakah came home with us after dinner for a cousin sleepover. We had hot coco and watched Polar Express. The kids stayed up way tool late, and were up way too early. Fun times.
