Holiday Lights

The Little America in Flagstaff has a BIG holiday lights party for the community, they hang over a million lights and then invite the community to come and celebrate the beginning of the Christmas Season. The girls get to dress up as elves and they help in the craft room for the kids to make ornaments, but Sarah was to COOL this year so we let Sophie's friend, Taylor, wear it and they had a blast. Sarah and Maddie helped and even Sydney and her friend, Emi, helped pass out coloring pictures to the little kids. Each year they have Santa Claus come in some special way and this year he rode in on a Ranger all decked out and the kids loved it!! A lot of people come and the lights are so beautiful, I call it Flagstaff's Temple Square!
Yeah Right!!! HO! HO! HO! Too COOL for SCHOOL!!! Sean taking my picture!

The kids had a GREAT time, but of course we had to WAIT for Fred to go home, it was a long night, but he did treat us to a yummy dinner in their restaurant.

OH I WISH I WERE AN OSCAR MEYER WEINER!!!

I am taking a 9 week course at NAU called FYE 101(yes it's a requirement) that helps you acclimate to school as a Freshman, we have to complete 4 passports in certain areas and one of them was to get involved in the community. They have an event here in Flagstaff called the First Friday Art Walk and I read the Wienermobile was coming to town and participate in the Art Walk. So I called our friends, the Beans, and we met up and took a tour of the Wienermobile. The kids kept yelling "Yeah we get to go and ride in the BIG WIENER!" I think my kids just like to say the word, wiener. I guess I do to because I've mentioned it a few times already. wiener, wiener, wiener... Anyways, we bundled up and headed out and after we experienced the "Wiener"mobile, we went and got crepes for everybody!! They were scrumdelicious!! Once again I give credit to Stacie for taking the pictures!! Thank you for hanging out with us!!!

Sean decides he doesn't want to be a pirate anymore, so he decides he wants to be Spiderman! (Whatever!) Stacie and the girls came over and we went Trick or Treating for about 2 hours. I can't believe they lasted that long, the weather was nice, but we had to climb some hills!!!
