Thanksgiving Visitors!

We were lucky enough to have Grandpa Dave and Grandma Fay come for a visit! It was so nice to have some family visit, Kaisley especially loved all the attention and love from "Papa", and Grandma...It was so wonderful Chris and I got an entire night to ourselves, Kaisley had a sleep over with papa and grandma and was in HEAVEN!! Thanksgiving was filled with lots of fun, first we had a yummy breakfast and then went swimming at the Hotel, Kaisley was still a little hesitant with the whole swimming thing but warmed up once Papa got in. It's so funny Kaisley will not call say Grandpa, it's always PAPA! Anyways, later we went to the movie Tangled in 3D but Kaisley of course refused the glasses but she didn't seem to mind the blurriness...she always is talking about Tangled! After the movie we had someone else cook Thanksgiving dinner for us and went to a nice dinner on the Missouri River, it was nice and relaxing...Although there is nothing like a homemade Thanksgivin' Dinner. The long weekend was just what we needed...now Chris is back at it in school, finals...finals...and more finals. Kaisley and I are checkin out of this place early! See you all in less than 2 weeks...YAHOOOO! Can't wait to see everyone and enjoy all the Christmas festivities! xoxo Thank you Grandpa and Grandma Minert you are the BEST!! Kaisley asks about you everyday since you left...see ya soon!

At the lighting of Downtown Omaha...we were freezing good thing we were there for only a few minutes...

Okay, this picture cracked me up...the weird smile thing is definitely from the Minert side...
my sister in-laws know what I mean ;)

Sliding down the big slides...Kaisley loved it, too bad it was so cold.

The Beautiful Poinsettia Tree at the Botanical Gardens!

It was so pretty in the indoor display, Kaisley especially loved the cranberries in the water, don't they look so pretty...

Swimming...

Halloween...WEEK!

I am amazed at how many activity one can do the week of Halloween...it starts to get a little crazy I can't tell you where the week went! We had a wonderful time though and Kaisley is still coming off of her sugar high...Here are some photos of all the festivities!
P.s. Watch out for the black cat she will attack...her looks will fool you ;)

The Beginning of all the Halloween Madness...

Music Class Party, all the kids are so cute dressed up!

Kaisley with Mia (the witch), Nahoa (Batman), Cambrie (the pretty purple princess), Hunter (the lion)...

Halloween Parade at Daddy's School...

Trick or Treating at the Dental school...Kaisley definitely caught on this year

Kaisley wasn't so sure about one of Chris's professors dressed up as Yoda...I think that's his name? Sorry I don't know my star wars characters.

Halloween Night, A witch and her Little Black Cat!

Kaisley trick or treating...Chris took her while I passed out candy, he said that every time there was a sucker she would make sure and get it...this girl has a thing for suckers, as you can tell in the pictures below.

Kaisley didn't trick or treat for very long...we did not need anymore sugar, but she loved helping me pass it out.
She loves her suckers!
Yes, that is 2 full sized tootsie pops in her mouth...I know I let her go a little crazy, but it was only for one day, it vanish the second she went to bed. ;)
And here is "Minert Manor" all spooktified...is this a word? Any who, I think I enjoy Halloween a little too much, I mean who changes up their entire decor for the occasion...ME!
Hope you all had a great Halloween!
xoxo
