February 2011

2/1- For my birthday(1/26), Ed and I used up rain check certificate for the Old Thyme Inn Bed & Breakfast in Half Moon Bay. Kristen is always so sweet to sleep over with our kids! The room we upgraded to was MUCH nicer than the first time we attempted to stay. It was on the top level and had it's own entrance so we weren't forced to mingle with others. :) We went to dinner at Pasta Moon and then headed back to our room and watched the Count of Monte Cristo. The room was nice and cozy with a nice jacuzzi tub and a fireplace. Great for a one night stay. Half Moon Bay is pretty deserted. :)

^The room came with a great breakfast too.

2/3- Picture comparisons. It's fun to see the different stages and common things my kids do.

2/11- PROM 2011- "Nothings Gonna Stop Us Now"

For Prom 2011 we started out with 8 couples at Fleming's Steakhouse for dinner all dressed in their fancies. Yum! Then we headed to our place for dessert, games and dancing. The men had to fill out a short questionnaire on their wife. After the questionnaire, as part of the invite we asked couples to bring a prerecorded copy of themselves doing a lip sync. Only 4 couples participated, but it was SO great! I love watching people put themselves out there for my enjoyment. :) Everyone did awesome too!! I expect 100% on videos next year. We'll have to make it the ticket in. :) Of course we took lots of pictures!! And then danced the night away! Complete with strobe light, fog machine and Christmas lights to garnish the room. Thanks for coming and having fun with us everyone! We love people that like to party like us! Music video of everyone from prom- next post.

^Chocolate dipped strawberries never disappoint!

The Dukes won the prize by lip syncing to "Hey Homies" by the Aquabats. Hilarious!
