This last week we went to St. Louis to have Thanksgiving at Kurts parents house. We flew out Thursday morning and got there at 6pm so everyone was so kind and waited to have Thanksgiving on Friday! We were welcomed Thursday night with lots of Aunts, Uncles and cousins(Tyson's) anxiously waiting to meet Tyson! He seems to love all the new adventures and was super happy all week. He did way better then I expected on the airplane, he was either sleeping or happily playing while other kids around us were screaming the entire trip.
We had a great Thanksgiving day- with great food and good fun. Then on Saturday Grandpa Santa came and gave out presents! It was a lot of fun to see how some kids liked Santa and others, even though they knew it was Grandpa, were still scared!
We stayed until the following Wednesday while everyone else had to leave on Sunday. We played a couple games of Hand and Foot- and I am happy to say that Marita and I kicked Kurt and Newels butt!! (The second game!) We ate at YUMMY 5 guys and of course Pei Wei. MMMMMMMMMM! Then we went bowling, went to the park where the guys played football and the girls and kids walked around, watched the ducks in the pond and played on the playground.
Snuggle time with Grandma
Fun times with Grandpa
Yesterday was my 24th birthday! Kurt, Tyson and I celebrated it mostly on Saturday by going shopping in Reno. The weather was extremely nice there-I cant remember ever having a birthday where there wasn't snow on the ground! So that was a nice birthday suprise. Kurt, as always gave me awesome presents! Yesterday my friend Heather took me out to a yummy lunch, I got a lot of birthday wishes from family; I got to talked to my brothers, sisters, parents, and got an awesome happy birthday video from nieces and nephews! We ended it with a slice of scrumptious cheesecake. The only bad part about my birthday was that Tyson wasn't feeling very good and was grumpy all day long:(
Kurt got me a new robe, new pj pants some movies and hot coco to have a warm and snuggly movie night!
Of course Football started right after decorating!! 
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care....
We'll be getting a bigger tree next year!!! 
We have been working on his napping...which is extemely hard. He hasnt liked to lay in his bed for naps for a long long time. He likes to be held- but I decided it was time that he sleep in his own bed. Sooooo the last couple of days have been pretty stressfull on all of us. But I am happy to say that last nigth he was put to bed awake and fell asleep with NO crying and only woke up once through the night!! Now we'll see if we can make it that easy during the day....
