San Diego Vacation

Kylee loved the rides @ Lego Land

Kylee had fun at the beach, and with her cousins

The best birthday dinner ever--Alaskan King Crab legs for me, and sushi for Wes with Creme Broule and chocolate covered strawberries for dessert. Yummy!

San Diego was heaven! It is so beautiful there. I could have stayed another week. There is so much to do there, and we loved staying in the huge house in Del Mar--thanks Keri and Dusty. We had a blast at the San Diego Zoo, Lego Land, and the beach. The weather was warm, and we couldn't have asked for more! It was a really fun birthday for me. I'm so glad that we have an awesome family that invites us to go on vacation with them. Kylee loved going down early (she left Sunday with Grammy and Gramps), and we came down Tuesday night after work. Thanks Chris and John for taking such great care of Kylee. She had so much fun with everyone, especially her cousin, Jackson. They played so cute together. I hope we make it back to San Diego again sometime soon.

Kylee is so funny. She says the cutest things these days. I'm always telling my friends at work the cute things she says. Recently, Kylee got a haircut because she said she wanted her hair short and blond. We of course didn't color her hair blond, but we cut it in a cute short bob, with a little bit of layers in the back. I don't have a picture of it yet, but it does look so cute.

Kylee loves to get attention, and she loves to perform. I'm planning on signing her up for dance lessons in January, but in the meantime, she has been practicing with the current season of Dancing with the Stars. She loves to run to her room and change during the commercial breaks. She will come back-out to the family room when the next couple is dancing, and she will do her own version of their dance. It makes it so fun to watch this show. The other night she was watching Biggest Loser with us, and they said to exercise during the commercial breaks to burn an extra 300 calories. Kylee, Wes, and I got up and did jumping jacks, and push-ups. I couldn't believe that Kylee could actually do push-ups! I was so impressed, and Kylee had fun jumping around with her crazy parents!

Kylee's favorite game to play for family home evening is hide-and-seek. She hides in the best places, and sometimes it takes me quite a while to find her. She loves to jump-out and scare us too. It's so fun being a mom, especially when my daughter is such a happy girl!

Finally, a new post

At the request of my sisters, here is a little update, and a few pictures. We've been a little busy lately with school, work, Halloween and church callings. Kylee loved trick-or-treating twice this year (once at our ward trunk or treat, and then again on halloween).

Kylee also had a cute party at school where they had a parade for parents to watch, and then did some crafts. Friday is short day, so they only have school from 9-10:45. Kylee was excited to see what all of her classmates would dress-up as, especially here little boyfriend JP. Yes, KYlee has a boyfriend, but they are just "friends." However, when I was volunteering in KYlee's class a few weeks ago, one little boy came up to me and said, "Did you know your daughter has a boyfriend?" This cute little boy (he's about a head shorter than Kylee) follows her around everywhere, and her teacher has to separate them so they "keep their hands to themselves."

Kylee is going to keep us on our toes!
