Santa and Sleigh Rides

Saturday morning Luke and I slept in til 1030am! It was soooo great! No kids, quiet, dark house. Ahhh I loved every minute! When we finally got up, Luke showered and was out the door. Him and a bunch of our friends headed to the Honda Center for the John Wooden classic. Our friend Shannon works for the ducks so every year she gets us all free tickets to the San Diego State game there, because a huge group of our friends are Alumni. Last minute I decided not to go becasue our weekend was crazy enough as it was. So I met my mom at the golf course for lunch and to pick the boys up. They got to see Papa come off the course and have lunch with him, not mention play on the putting green, so they were excited. After lunch we went to Kylees All Star game, they got slaughtered 5-0. Kylee came home with us so she could go to the next party with us. Yes, the next party of the weekend. But first we went home and put the boys down for naps and Kylee and I bundled oursleves on the couches and watched TV for two hours. It was nice to just have some down time. Luke got home at 5pm, Keira was dropped off at 530pm ( I was watching her for the night too) and all 6 of us were out the door at 545pm. We stopped at jack in the Box for a quick bite then we were headed to Kent and Kathy Fitch's (Jake's parents) for the annual sleigh rides and santa visit! They do it every year for all the kids and it is always so fun. The boys freaked over santa, as usual, but had a ball on the sleigh rides and playing with ther friends. It was freezing that night so all of us were bundled up. Kylee and McKenna went off, as usual and Keira sat with Luke for most of the time so I could take the boys on the sleigh rides. It was fun. The boys love that party every year. After it was all over a bunch of us went to Fridays for more food and dessert. Luke and I had 4 kids... remind me never to have 4 kids. Not that they were bad, they were all super good but OMG! Talk about work. Not to mention there were 12 of us adults at this huge table and 16 kids!!! 6 of which were under the age of 1!!!! It was insane. We are so out numbered now its gross. We got home and all 4 kids crashed, hard. So did Luke! Haha... Thanks Kent and Kathy for another fun party!
