Happy Birthday Remi!

Today is Remington A. Hendrickson's 9th Birthday! He was VERY excited this morning and even slept in a little to celebrate. Mike and I took him on a walk around the neighborhood where he got to see Mike's elementary school (he liked it, in case you were wondering . . . )

After dinner he got his birthday treat of doggie cookies. Not the same as last year's birthday cookie, but oops we were in Dallas and couldn't get one here on time - He didn't seem to mind.

He also got a large (12" I think) rawhide bone, he was a little slow at first, but then he went wild! He may actually finish it this year (he is eating it right now)


*side note* our first blog post was Remington's 8th birthday - 1 year ago!

House Update

Last Saturday (November 22, 2008) Mike and I were on our way to the airport for our big Dallas adventure. We decided to stop by our "house" and see how it was going. Not much to look at and not exciting to most, but very thrilling for us! The left side is the garage (if you look close you can see that the 3rd car extends back for the boat).

I will update with more pictures as they continue the building progress. We stopped by today, but the only thing new was the tar (not an exciting picture). Everyone cross your fingers for speedy building!

What a Fabulous Day!

Friday was my 29th Birthday (the last year of my twenties!!) Mike and I had a fantastic evening out - unfortunately there are no pictures to prove how sharp we looked (it's true! we did!) Kate did an amazing job with my hair (thank you again!) and White house Black Market had the perfect dress! We went to Fleming's Steakhouse for dinner (yummy! I totally recommend) and this is where Mike gave me my birthday present - I was shocked! They are so beautiful and he picked the perfect shape and size (thanks again baby!)

After dinner we went to the symphony "an evening of film music" it was so good!

You wanted to see me model my new beautiful present right????

And last but not least - there have not been many pictures of the boy lately! Here he is wearing his new Cowboys bandana just in time for their win on Sunday! Notice the countdown? Only 5 days until we leave! Yeah!

The best news of all is that our builder emailed to let us know ------ we have our permit! They are starting on our house next week! YEAH!!! Be prepared for A LOT of boring progress building pictures because I am very excited!!!

Melts my Heart!

This is a video from when I was in Vegas. I have watched it about a thousand times (Mike can verify this) and I am so glad I have it to keep forever!! It goes a little long, but who cares? They are so dang cute!

I Love Vegas!

This Post is quite past due since I was in Vegas the weekend before Halloween! (oops!) Anyway I had TONS of fun (as usual) and here are some pictures from my awesome weekend with Keith, Allie, Hannah and Nicholas.

We went bowling while Keith was at work (the kids did great!) and this cute lady next to us asked if we would like our picture taken. I thought it was so nice!

Do you even need to ask? This is us waiting for High School Musical 3 to start . . . . . yeah we got there a little bit earlier then we needed to (notice all the empty seats?!?!?!!)

We made some fabulous Halloween cookies! Hannah and I thought we should show them off for the camera - So Cute!



We also went to a pumpkin patch again this year. I think I might like it as much as the kids! I tried to upload my video of DOING A BACKFLIP (yeah) but there were issues . . . . I will try again. Anyway, here are some past and present pumpkin patch pictures.
