Wine Tasting

Tonight was the Nespor's Holiday Wine Tasting. After a year off, we came back with something new. A new logo, new invites, new location, and new caterer. My sister and her husband came over to enjoy the party and brought our girls back to town for us. Cooper, Campbell, and my niece Bailey all helped work the wine tasting, by greeting guests, taking coats, clearing dishes, and refilling food trays. It was a very successful event and we received many compliments.

Weekend with Grandma

My mom offered to have the girls out to spend the weekend at her house. We had some things to accomplish around the house and for the upcoming wine tasting. The girls had a great time. With Christmas just around the corner, the weather cooperated so they enjoyed the Holiday Parade. Grandma also took them bowling. It's always a treat to go to Grandma's house and help take care of the puppies. Thanks mom!

Breaking Dawn Part 2

I missed the opening shows of Breaking Dawn part 2 (just happened to be out of town - in Vegas). But my friend, Michelle, volunteered to go see the movie again with me. She said she didn't mind because the movie was just that good. After seeing it, I'd have to agree with her. Wow!! What a twist! What a good ending to a great series.

Christmas Spectacular

I got 3 tickets from work today to preview the show "Christmas Spectacular" at the Columbian Theater in Wamego for tonight's showing. So the girls and I loaded up and headed off to the show. It was filled with great actors, lots of singing, new and old Christmas songs, and some very talented young kids. It was a fun and different night out for us girls.

Wii Club

Cooper has chosen to participate in an afterschool Math club called the Wii Club for the next 4 weeks. It meets twice a week afterschool. Her Math teacher is really into Math and has gotten a grant to sponsor this club. The kids use the Wii to bowl and also use the Ipad and collect data. They bowl both with their left hand and their right hand. They compare and contrast their scores and the what effects the data. I'm excited Cooper has this opportunity to try something new with lots of technology.

Thanksgiving at our house

We invited family and friends to our house this year for Thanksgiving. The weather was warm and sunny. We had a house full of family and friends. Delicious food was in surplus. We had borrowed Oma & Opa's Wii and rented Just Dance 4. The girls love to help me get ready for a party, so with tables set, decorations made, placecards assigned; it was finally time to eat! Everyone took turns on the Wii dance and we laughed until our sides hurt. We also took one day and went Ice Skating. Papa Mike was the official photographer. It was a very enjoyable holiday. So glad we did it!
