Pie Auction

Lifespring! held a pie auction as a fundraiser for the youth group a few weeks ago. Basically, people voted on who they wanted to see get pies in the face ($1 per vote), then the honor of smearing the pie was auctioned off for each of the top ten people selected. My dad and Mike both ended up having to get a pie in the face... by their wives! Several others got it, too.

Disneyland Treasure Hunt

We went on a treasure hunt at Disneyland last weekend to find some Classic Pooh ideas for our little munchkin's nursery. We enjoyed a beautiful day at the park and got the chance to get a lot of walking in with all of the stores and galleries we visited!

We got to ride the new Mark VII Monorail...


See the castle partially decorated for Christmas...
And looking beautiful in the moonlight...

And we walked away with our baby's first Disney onesie. :) It was so cute, we couldn't resist. We can't wait to see her in it!


And we DID find a few ideas for the nursery. Now if we could just find a way to make some room in there...

28 Weeks

It's been a while since I've posted a pregnancy picture on this site... I mostly post these on the Pregnancy blog. But incase you're not following that one - here's an idea of where we're at. :) 28 weeks and counting! Less than twelve weeks to go (hopefully!)...

Andy's New Toy

I got Andy a barbecue for his birthday. It's a Weber Genesis, which was the one he's been wanting for a long time. He and Mike put it together when it came in. Unfortunately, we have been so busy we haven't gotten to use it yet! We will soon, though - we're looking forward to cooking up some steaks on it!

Halloween at the Auction

So I'm a little behind on posting... but here is a photo from Halloween at the auction. This is my staff - from left to right, me, Barb, Lisa and Sharon. We decorated the office like Heaven...

Which nicely contrasted with the front office...

I'm glad I'm on our team! :)

Our New Entertainment


We have a new place for entertainment in our neighborhood! The Citizen's Business Bank Arena opened across the street from us this past weekend. We now have a minor league hockey team that is housed there, as well as special events and concerts that are planned there. They will also have indoor ice skating - all within walking distance from our home.

We went to the opening event on Friday, which was the L.A. Laker's versus the new Oklahoma City Thunder.



Then on Saturday, after a GREAT Lifespring softball game (which we won!), we went to the opening game for the Ontario Reign minor league hockey game. It was a fun weekend!

NKOTB

I went to the New Kids on the Block concert last Wednesday with Staci, Tanya & Becky. We screamed our heads off and jumped up and down like little kids seeing Disneyland for the first time... it was great! :) We were a little too young to be able to join the concert circuit when they were originally popular, but we were all MAJOR fans. Major, major fans... We were obsessed. For that reason, this concert was all the more special for us!
