Kala's Quote of the Day

"Natalia, how does your name go?"

Kala's Sister

So Mykala told us this morning that her sister "Thristhree" (sometimes called "Threesta") is coming over on Tuesday and that her birthday is next Saturday.... and how both Chad and I knew nothing of her and Kala did is beyond me! :) Oh yeah, and she lives in Alaska. (There have actually been a couple times when things were delayed for Threethra's arrival.)
So... another birthday party everyone????

Uncle Ryan and Jace

I love this pic

Fam in Town

Ryan, Natalia, and Lexi came to Phoenix on Saturday and the rest of my family came in Monday night. We were so excited to see everybody and of course we had a ton of fun. :) We definitely don't see each other enough! It was unfortunate only being with them for two days, but I guess it's much better than not seeing them at all. We consider ourselves lucky to have been able to see them twice this year, but it doesn't make the goodbyes any easier.... We love and miss you all!!!

Playing a game called "Don't hit the net" - where the only rule is to not hit the net .....and maybe not get hit by the ball. It's gonna be big. :)

Day at the Phoenix Zoo

Here are a few pictures taken at the Phoenix zoo, or as Mykala called it, the "jungle". I only took a few, which surprises me....I wish I had taken more. I'm going to have to steal a couple from my father....hear that, dad? :)

"Thanksgiving"

While my family was here, we decided to celebrate Thanksgiving early at Fajitas. It was a ton of fun and the food was (and always is) AMAZING.

Angry Faces

This is what happens when we're bored...

Baby Einstein

Never underestimate Baby Einstein and its hypnotic abilities
(Ironically, Jace is the only one who's not entranced...)

MISS MYKALA 4 YEAR OLD

Aunt Lexi decorated most of Mykala's birthday cake. Mykala told me earlier that day that she wanted to be called "Miss Mykala 4 year old" so that's what we decided to write on the cake. Thank you Lexi, you're awesome - and the cake looks great!! :)

Lunceford Birthday Party

On Sunday (11/23) we had a birthday party for Mykala with the Lunceford side of the family (Grama and Grampa Lunceford were nice enough to let us hold it at their house!) There was a good amount of people there - Mykala got one heck of a bday song! We had a good time....and Kala loved it!

Kala's New Bike

For Mykala's birthday, we got her a Disney Princess bike. She had spent the night before at Grama and Grampa Lunceford's and so we put the bike in her room for a surprise when she got home.
Mykala was so excited and was a pro as soon as she got on the bike. She cruised around with very little problems.... even turned around all by herself!!!
She stopped every once in awhile for water breaks...it was adorable. :)
She'll soon be ready to do a century ride with daddy!!!
