Krista's surprise graduation party

Jason threw a surprise graduation party for me at the Spaghetti Factory!  He did a great job at keeping it a secret too.... until the morning of the party.  He received a confirmation message from the Spaghetti Factory and he listened to the message on speaker phone while I was standing right next to him.  Oops!  Staci and Jason were in cahoots to get me out of the house for the party.  I met up with Staci and she took me for a free massage in Idaho (they were giving out free massages to medical students) and then I took her out for appetizers at Twigs.  After which we went to the Spaghetti Factory for my (not so surprise) party.  Even if it wasn't a total surprise it was still a lot of fun to have dinner with my favorite people.  Everyone Jason invited was there expect Olesya, who had something come up and couldn't attend with her family.  Thank you for coming everyone!  Jon, Vicki, my mom, dad, John, Laura, Tina, Aric, Zach, Jakob, Jason, Connor, Kaiden, Staci and Tony.   I guess right before I arrived Kaiden was being passed around the table for everyone to hold and see him and he freaked out a little bit.  Stranger anxiety!  He was fine by the time I arrived though.

 There was a fun clown there making balloons for the kids too.

You better watch out

You better not cry

Better not pout

I'm telling you why

Santa Claus is coming to town...

trucks

Connor gave Kaiden his plastic Tonka trucks.  Connor has never really been into playing with cars/trucks.  He likes his transformers and remove control cars, but he's never really played much with maxbox cars or these little Tonka trucks.  Kaiden on the other hand has been eyeballing these trucks for a while now.  He was so excited when his big brother finally gave them to him that he pulled out his binky to check out his new toys...

 The true test on how good a toys is... the taste test.  If Kaiden can get it in his hand... it's going in his mouth!

WSU Cougar game

I got free tickets for the WSU Cougar football game in Pullman.  Jason and I have never been to Pullman or to a football game, so we got a sitter and drove the 2 hours to Pullman.  We had a great time even though it was a bit chilly.

  

 

   

Connor's Kindergarten picture

We had Connor's picture re-taken this year.  The first picture was the goofy smile.  He looks more mature in the second picture too.

Disney on Ice

Jason and I took 3 little boys to Disney on Ice: Connor, Ryan and Kaiden.  They all did great!  Connor and Ryan decided to share a seat, even though they had their own seats.  We bought a huge thing of popcorn.  Connor and Ryan stayed in their chair, eyes glued to the show, munching on popcorn for the entire show.  They both loved it!  Kaiden watched part of the show, then fell asleep.

I love these boys!!!  Connor, Ryan, me and Kaiden

Mikey Mouse

Jack Skellington!

Princesses

Connor brought a few toys, so they could play during intermission.  I love being in the suite, so we have the space for the boys to play.

My little chef, Connor.  He was so excited to use the mixer to help me make cake pops.

the special cake pop he made for himself... with rainbow sprinkles

we made 3 dozen cake pops.  I took the white chocolate to my psych clinical, blue to daycare and the last plate of white/brown chocolate we divided up.. half to some nursing friends and half for Jason and Connor.
