Bake day and Pics

So on Sunday Kruz and I decided to go to my mom's and have a bake day since Dave was gone duck hunting. Since we were going there I decided that would be a great location to take some pictures of me and Kruz to give as a present to Dave. So we got dressed up and went over there and had Zac take some pics of us and of course my niece Sophie wanted to join us. We got some pretty cute pics of me and Kruz, I posted the one we are giving Dave. After that we started making cookies and Kruz was in charge of decorating them, we also made toffee and fudge(turned out pretty darn good). It was a lot of fun making all this stuff that has been in my family for as long as I can remember and with my mom too:). After that I came home, we ate dinner and then Kruz came home from my ex's family party. He wanted to try my toffee so I let him have a teenie bite.... a few mins later he started screaming that his mouth was on fire!!! I freaked out after it wouldnt stop hurting him and when I noticed hives all on his chin and his bottom lip started swelling. UGHH... I should have listened to my gut instinct when I went to give him a bite, cause the toffee has walnuts on it but I figured he would be fine since he can have peanuts and pecans. Not the case though I pulled out the benedryl and gave him some and 15 mins later he was fine.... THANK GOD!!! No emergency room and now I know that he is allergic to it so I can inform everyone not to give it to him. Kruz and Sophie

This is the picture we took to give to Dave for Christmas

Happy Holidays!!

Party Time!!!!

So on Saturday my grandpa had his annual Christmas party. I love this party!!! We pick out names and buy a present for that person and then Santa comes and calls out our name and we go sit on his lap and get our present. Then we sing christmas songs, eat dinner and play games. This year Santa came first and then we ate dinner so it was kind of weird but oh well. Kruz was sooo excited to go see Santa!!! I love how excited he gets... makes my day. Our whole family comes to this party that is another reason I love it so much, cause I get to see aunts, uncles, and cousins that I rarely see. I am so excited for Christmas!! Dave and I are going to go up to my mom's house and watch them open their presents and Dave is going to make them breakfast and we are going to hang out until we get Kruz at 1:00. Then Kruz will get to come to our house and open the presents Santa left at our house. Well hope every one is doing well Have a great Christmas and New Years!!! Dave sitting on Santa's lap

Gingerbread houses!!!

So my mom had her annual christmas party on Tuesday and it was SOOO much fun!! She made my favorite food in the whole world, potatoes augratin, ham and rolls. After that we played a couple games and of course I won them both lol!! My brother's weren't too happy about that but oh well. Then we opened some presents that my mom got for us. She gave us all a blanket and a movie for the family. After that we made an awesome gingerbread house.... Kruz designed this one. I am sooo excited that christmas is almost here!!!!! I finally finished all my christmas shopping yesterday... yayyyy no more dealing with the packed stores. Tomorrow night is my grandpa's christmas party and I am sooo excited for that too. I will post pics of that on sunday. Have a great weekend!!!

Christmas is just around the corner

This is a picture of the lights that Dave put up


So Christmas is just 23 days away.... AHHHHH!!! I haven't even started shopping cause I have been so crazy busy with wedding stuff and work. I am going on Sunday and will hopefully be able to do it all in one day LOL. I love this time of year.... there is just this feeling I get when December rolls around and everyone has their lights up. Dave and I spent all day on Sunday decorating our house and office. I love decorating everything it just kind of sucks because then after Christmas we have to take everything down in the office, outside, and our house. This year we have lots of parties to go too :). On the 13th is my mom's, the 19th is my grandpa's, and on 24th it's Dave's families. It kind of sucks cause this year we don't get Kruz Christmas morning we have to wait until 1 for him to open the presents that Santa left at our house... but oh well!!! Hope everyone is doing well!!!
