Napping is for Sissies


The last few days Kate has decided that she is way to good for napping. She falls asleep in the truck but she is bright eyed and ready for action as soon as she get into the house. She just doesn't have time for sleeping. She is getting around the house much easier these days, (not crawling yet, but is dang close) She thinks she is pretty hot stuff these days. Mom misses the nap time, I haven't got a shower before 11 O'clock at night for several days. We hopefully we get this figured out in the next few days. It's a good thing she is adorable.

Family Vacation







Since we have lived in Cali we have had a bunch of visitors here at Hotel Christiansen. We are not complaining, though we actually have loved it. My sister and here family came from Texas and my brother and is family along with my mom and Heidi came from AZ for a week. We had 7 kids under 10. We went to the beach alot and even got to go to Disneyland, Kate loved it. Kate has learned so much from having all these kids around. It was wonderful to have them all here and we were hoping to make it a yearly vacation. Donny really wants them to come back because he thinks baby Kate and I aren't as much fun as the older boys. Donny is not the same now that he doesn't have anyone to play home run derby with especially because he could beat the 10 year olds. Well we hope the visitors keep coming, I am getting great and changing sheets and I like having an excuse to clean my house.

Cancun Vacation







We spent a week in Cancun, Mexico with Donny's family. We stayed at a beautiful resort call the Moon Palace and all of the food, drink and activities were included so we just ate ourselves sick at every meal, I think that I consumed about 2000 calories a day in virgin pina coladas. We visited the ruins at Tulum and saw all the temples there that are the home of the book of Mormon. We spent most of the days relaxing by the pool or the beach. We had a wonderful time and we were only sad to come home to our reality where we had to cook and clean up after ourselves. Adios

Daddy graduated


Donny graduated from dental school in May, (yes I know I am behind in my blog) But it was a wonderful day with lots of family that came in to help us celebrate the occasion. There was two ceremonies and we had two dinners because we love excuses to eat great food. Donny is happy to be done but now he has to start working. yeah!!
