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!
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!!!
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!
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.

I can't wait to do it all again next year guys! Thanks again for having me and I miss you already!
The Hendrickson Halloween party was held last Saturday and I have many pictures to show! We did a lot of stuff and I had a blast with the kids. This is one of my favorite pictures of Halle - As you can see, she loved being bounced on the trampoline! She is in her bear costume (so cute) and Sam is bouncing her and Caden. It was really cute to watch. Caden was an American Idol contestant (but don't tell him there was anything on his back!) He also had a "ticket to Hollywood" which I thought was really cute (and smart!) Dallin and Grace Logan, Sam (cutest ninja EVER), and Ella (the only pictures I have with Logan in Costume!) Eric with his son Mason "Dr. Evil and mini me" I love it!! Kylee - cute little bug Kids were too hot in their costumes, and boys that won't wear them! Clyde & Halle with Mike & Kylee. This picture turned out really good! This picture of Sam makes me laugh everytime I look at it. Poor Sam couldn't see through those glasses! I put Heidi's Princess Leia wig on Halle. She wasn't to sure about it, but I loved it! This was my attempt to get a picture of all the neices and nephews (something I don't have) I could not get one of them all looking and hope that someone else did! Left to Right - Sam, Kylee, Caden, Grace holding Halle, Ella, Logan holding Mason, and Dallin. Well, at least now I have my picture of them all!!
This is a video of the 4 oldest kids (the core four) doing the "doughnut challenge" These kids sure do entertain me!
Now the younger kids get to try! (sorry that I keep yelling "no hands!" Mike always tells me that the person filming shouldn't yell -- oops!)
Last week some of the family came over to Clyde and Norma's. This is a video of Caden and Kylee learning how to bowl on the Wii. Hilarious! This went on for quite a while and I am really glad that I got it on video. Enjoy!
Do you know who these people are? Until recently, I knew who the actors were, but didn't "know" Troy and Gabriella.
I will be in Vegas when HSM 3 is released in theaters. Trying to be a good aunt, I was planning to see it with Keith, Allie, Hannah, and Nick. I didn't want to be unprepared right? I called Lizzy to see if she would watch the first 2 movies with me . . . .. yeah, she was pretty excited. We planned a HSM party for Saturday night. . . . . . . . I liked these movies! They are totally cheesy, but fun! The music is upbeat and enjoyable and the characters crack me up!
So now, I am all in! I am VERY excited to see the 3rd movie (to my surprise) and is there anyone alive that doesn't think ZacEfron is ridiculously cute?
October 24th - Can't Wait! (Really - who knew I would like this????!?!?!?!??!?!?!)
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!
