Hitting the lanes for Tristan's birthday

January 9, 2010 - We went to Harmony bowl for Tristan's birthday this year, and all had a lot of fun. We need to do that more often as a family - the kids had a blast! (Tristan seemed to have a good time too!)

The fun is not over yet!

January 1, 2010 - So I guess we outdid ourselves on the first day of the new year, but we had one more fun event to share. We took the boys and Reese to the zoo to see their christmas lights display. (Becca was at her first sleppover of the new year.) Bet you didn't know Santa's reindeer hang out here in Colorado during the off-season!

Reese decided to be brave and feed the giraffe.

Cameron freaked out and dropped his when he saw the giraffe's tongue!

New Year, good old sledding hill

January 1, 2010 - This feels like a tradition in the making! This is the second time we've gone to this particular hill in Woodland Park with all the Gearhart cousins, and so far it's been really awesome! The only downside is the trees along the side of the slippery hill. A couple times, my heart just about stopped watching Cameron barely miss the same tree! He got really brave on this trip. Once he figured out how much fun sledding is, we couldn't get him to stop!

Reese would not be coerced into going any where near a sled!

Tris and Cam still a little nervous watching everyone else go down.

New Year's Eve 2009!

Decmber 31, 2009- January 1, 2010 - Tamzen hosted a hoppin' party for New Year's Eve. We had yummy food, watched the ball drop, made a LOT of noise, and played games until we were too tired to play anymore! It was alot of fun!

and after it got late!

Reese sadly wouldn't agree to wearing a tiara.

This is what we look like when we stay up late - notice we are both struggling to keep our eyes open!

Happy 2010!

Girls Just Wanna' Have Fun!

December 29, 2009 - We always have to take advantage of having the Gearhart Girl cousins in town, with an extra GIRLY sleepover! As you can see, there was dressing up, painting nails, and even a foot soak! Claire is trying to figure out the battery- operated nail file/ buffer, as Ainsley tries to move around without messing up her pink and purple nails.

Reese having a relaxing foot soak.

Time for a quick soda break!

We love our cousins and were so glad they could come and be girly with us!
