Back in November my family, both immediate and extended along with some adopted family members took a trip to Wild Adventures for the Christmas celebration. It was so much fun, but so stinkin cold. I don't think we have ever been that cold. My brothers "friend" Jennifer joined us and she is from Illinois so she just laughed at us most of the evening. However; even she will admit toward the end it was COLD! The kids of course had a blast, they rode everything that they could but alot of the rides were/are closed because of Christmas decorations being around them. Carson & Colby both put on their brave pants and rode a new ride each. Carson finally got on her first "big" rollercoaster, The Swamp Thing and Colby finally, after literally YEARS of debating inside himself rode Boomerang. Both were so proud. Colby was so happy with himself I think he and Jenn rode it about 4 times back to back. Carson only rode her new ride once because she said it was too cold. I have of course no pictures b/c I forgot my camera. I do have a few that Mitzi sent me, she was our photographer for the evening, plus a few that Erin sent me.
We had such a good time. It was so good to hang out with everyone. even if we were freezing our tushies off. My family had never met my brothers friend Jennifer before, neither had his boys or my friend Mitzi and her family. Jenn joined us because she was down visiting her family for Thanksgiving.
This is my Mom & Dad - they are the bestest parents in the whole wide world...
Above is my sister Erin, her husband Lee, and their boys Stephen and Mason (with the paci) - she's the best and those boys are too cute! I could eat them up.
That is my brother Matt and his boys Chander (oldes), Owen (middle) and Hayden (youngest). He just recently divorced and is starting his life anew. Doing pretty good at it too if you want my opinion, but I'm a little biased.
That is my whole family.... we're a good looking group aren't we....
This is our whole family again, plus one of our adopted members Jenn. She and my brother have been friends forever and a day seems like and until this night it had been about that long since we had all seen her.
This is me and Mitzi, she's one of my bestest friends and I love her.
And here's the McKameys, Ronnie, Mitzi, Riley & Cheyenne.... they are part of our adopted family!!
We had such a good time. It was so good to hang out with everyone; even if we were freezing our tushies off. I'm so glad that Jenn was able to join us while she was down visiting her family for Thanksgiving. It was a pleasure finally introducing her to my family as well as Mitzi and her crew. We just all had a great evening!
Ok well now that you have been introduced to everyone check back often.. I'm new to this whole blogging thing, but it can't be that hard can it?!?!
HAPPY HOLIDAY & MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
