We had a fabulous time on Dad's 80th Birthday. First we took in The Pink Panther Two, (now according to my Dad, he has seen them all). Then we all met up at Lucille's BBQ-ribs, burgers, tri-tip, chicken, salads, garlic mashed potatos, sweet potatos, veggies, and of course the biscuits with honey butter-yum yum.

Christmas Day

Everyone had a great time on Christmas Day, but we sure did miss CJ and Molly! When I talked to CJ, Isaac wanted to talk to Miss Molly-he cracks me up. Sam especially loved his monkey butt cream and Garon demonstrated his electric shaver for us. Kaia looked adorable in her polk-a-dot jammies that her daddy picked out for her. Isaac and Noah loved opening the presents way more than the actual present.

Christmas Eve at Lake Mead

We took our trip out to the Las Vegas Marina and fed the carp, miscellaneous other fish, ducks, and birds. It was so fun to see Isaac and Noah's faces when the birds and fish come right up so close-we didn't have any fingers get nipped at this year, but the birds do get very aggressive! Those carp get so close-it is like you can step out on top of them and they would keep you afloat or suck off your feet.

It was a pretty chilly day but a fun way to spend a family day together.
