New Year's Eve

Mom, Dad, Teniele and her boys went to Reid's on the 28th. Rosie's family also went down.  We decided to stay home to be with Kacie on her birthday so it was weird not having them around on New Year's Eve.  They had a big party which looked like fun.  We went to Steve and Kris's house.  He fixed a yummy dinner of French Dip and homemade macaroni and cheese.  It was so good.  Kacie spent the day with Cole but she was home before midnight so we were home by then also so we watch the ball drop together.

Mom was bummed they weren't able to set off fireworks because it was too windy.

Kacie went with Cole and his dad to buy a new snowmobile.  She said the company took this picture of them for their advertising.  They are so cute together.

Happy New Year....bring on 2019!

Kacie's 20th Birthday...

Cole took Kacie out to dinner on her actual birthday.  I think they went to the Outback and then got cheesecake at the Cheesecake Factory.  He gave her a coat and his parents gave her a sweatshirt and socks, which was so nice of them.  I posted 20 pictures for her 20th birthday.

After Scott and I took Brandon home I got her these balloons.  

We got some cute pictures of her with them before she went out to dinner with Cole.

I was pretty happy with how her cake turned out. 

 It was my first three layered cake and my first time trying the drizzle. 

 I definitely need some more practice with that.

 Can't believe my baby girl is 20!

Sunday the 30th we had a party for her.  She requested pork fried rice and orange chicken.  It was yummy.  Only Stacie with her kids and Steve & Kris with her boys were able to come.  My family all went to Reid's house for New Year's.

 

 

She got a lot of nice gifts.  Stacie's family gave her some white Corelle dishes, sweats and $20.  Steve's family gave her a nice Under Armour sweatshirt.  Mom and Dad gave her two pairs of Pink tights and we got her a matching Pink sweatshirt, Pink robe, mint green lace dress and a white lace dress.  Brady got her a curly wand.  It was a great party!

Christmas...

On Christmas Eve Kacie and I went to Fruitland to get her bloodwork done and then she got a couple more things for Cole.  While we were at D&B I got a call from Brandon's home that he was sick with the stomach flu.  I was sad we wouldn't be able to have him home for Christmas.  Kacie spent Christmas Eve with Cole's family.  She said they had soup and she really liked her gifts from his family.  Scott, Brady and I had breakfast pizza at Mom and Dad's and then we watched a new movie called Christmas Chronicles.  I thought it was cute!  When Kacie got home I got a picture of her and Brady.  It felt really weird not having Brandon.  I thought their PJ's were cute. 

 Santa came!!!

 I like how we rearranged the living room this year.  It felt more cozy.

I was happy Brady liked his new bluetooth headphones.

We had Christmas dinner with Mom and Dad.  Scott did a brisket on the Traeger.  All of the food was delicious.  It was so fun getting to see Kyle on Skype.  It was nice having Cole with us also. 

Dec 26th Kacie had a doctor's appointment with Dr. Bender.  She said everything looked really good except her blood pressure was on the high side.  After her appointment we all went to see Mary Poppins Returns.  It was really cute!  After the movie Kacie and Brady spent the night a Stacie's house.  Thursday the 27th Scott and I went to get Brandon after work.  He did fairly well this time.  One the 28th he got a little worked up but then settled back down.  He stayed with us until Saturday the 29th. 

 I was happy to get one picture of Brandon smiling then he took Kacie's glasses and attacked her! haha!

My attempt at getting more pictures of them together didn't work out too well!
