Clayton's 11th Birthday!!

Tuesday was Clay's Birthday so he got to decide what we did. We spent the day going to movies at the movie theater in Pleasanthill. The first movie we went to was Yogi Bear and then the second movie we went to was Tangled! Both were adorable movies!!! It was just me, Clayton, and Kaya and we had a GREAT day! After that he wanted to go to Grandma Diane's and he then chose to go out to eat at Villiage Inn in Altoona with Grandma and Grandpa and me and Kaya!! He also wanted me to Thank everyone that called and wished him a Happy Birthday over the phone!!! It made his day with each call!! Thank you!! This Saturday we will have Clay's party at his favorite place to eat....Bandanas in Ankeny!! He can't wait to celebrate with all of his family and friends!! Lets just hope the weather holds and his party doesn't get snowed or iced out! It seems every year it gets canceled! I can't beleive I am a mom to an 11 year old!!! Pictures to come soon of his Party!!!

Santa likes milk and cookies....but what about Rudolf!!

Kaya and Nathan really enjoyed making baggies with oats and hay for Rudolf!! I loved getting to spend Christmas Eve and Christmas with my brother and his family!! They are AWESOME and I am really blessed to have such a great brother!!

Yes, it has been snowing in Iowa....ick!!!

Not as much snow as last winter but enough for me!! Kaya can't do much with her broken arm but Clay sure enjoys moving snow around with the tractor!!

Kaya's cast....

Before getting the cast......
After getting the cast!! Hot pink with lots of fairy dust!! I haven't put pics on the blog for awhile. kaya broke her ulna and radial neck after she fell/jumped off a chair!! YIKES to say the least!! She just recently got her cast off and in about a week will be able to take her splint off!! I don't think she will be playing on the back of a chair ever again!!!lol
