Gingerbread Nights and Big 12 Championship

Last weekend Steve and his brother Rob flew to Kansas City for the Big 12 Championship game. For those of you like me, that's a college football game. I guess a big deal. Anyway, Dr. Pepper sponsored it so you know Steve and Rob got the hook up. Everything was taken care of for them, flight, hotel, food, entertainment. All they had to do was just show up. I was excited for them to go but not excited for me to be left behind. If Blake wasn't nursing I would have gone.
My friend Kate and I took our kids to Glendale's Gingerbread nights. I guess they change the theme each weekend. It was a lot of fun. It was really crowded though. I was nice to see a community come out and have fun together. They had a lot of vendors for fair type junk food. They had "The Grinch that stole Christmas" playing on a huge screen out doors, many kid dancers on stage, bounce houses and slides, free crafts, and of course Santa Clause. It was a fun night. Thanks Kate for telling us about it and inviting us we had a blast.

It was a long wait to see the 'Big Guy' but it was worth it. He was the nicest Santa I have ever met!!

Blake was as happy as could be. Considering he was stuck to his mama the whole night.
