Week in Review 12/26-1/1

Monday-On the day after Christmas, we slept in, did not get to breakfast, so we made sliders on my new indoor grill/griddle, ice cream in the new ice cream maker. Connor and Cayden spent the night at grandma's and so Caleb went over there around 9 to have pancakes with them. The kids love love love grandma's pancakes. We cleaned up some from the Christmas since we just the house go. Connor and Cody went to Mesquite with grandpa to clean another carpet. Later in the evening we watched The Adjustment Bureau.

Tuesday-We did some more cleaning up around the house. Caleb had Connor Waite over to play. Don and I left at 4 to go to Vegas for Kyle's sleep study.

Wednesday-After Don slept some from being gone all night he took Cody, Cayden and Caleb to Vegas to see The Muppet Movie.  They went to Aliante Station and had lunch in the food court and then went to the show.  I stayed home and mostly slept with Kyle.  In the evening Teri Waite and her girls came over to visit.  I played with the Kindle app on my IPhone and downloaded some books to read, washed all the blankets and clothes from the sleep study and then the boys all watched X-men that night.

Thursday-Don took Cody to Vegas to the airport and then went golfing with his boss. The kids had friends over-Molly, Kaili and Linnea, Connor Waite.  I made chicken salad for lunch and Caleb and Connor Waite made paninis.  Connor helped grandpa with some carpets.  I really wanted to bake cookies but instead I cleaned toilets and did laundry instead.  In the early evening the kids went next door to Molly's to have a hot dog/marshmellow roast and play games with the neighborhood kids.  

Friday-As  part of Connor's Christmas present from grandma and grandpa he got some roping lessons from Micah next door.  He had fun learning to rope.  Then he cleaned carpets with grandpa and played with a friend-Austin Leavitt.  We took Caleb and Cayden to Lion King in Las Vegas and grandma kept Kyle.  We also had dinner with Don's boss and another guy he works with and their wives.  Caleb was in desperate need of some new pants so we went to Kohl's on the way in.  Cayden had a sick stomach toward the end of the day and I pumped him full of ammodium and even a very special Zofran.  

Saturday-We started a our New Year's eve with a walk around the block and and Cayden attempted to ride his bike with alot of help from us pushing and pulling.  To counteract any good that we did walking we made sliders and fries when we got home.  More football was on of course.  I went to the store for a few party essentials and made a bunch of treats.  For our evening events see that post.
