2011 in Review

How to sum up a very interesting 2011? Here's a few highlights-in no particular order!
Piper and I cut our hair, me: 1 inches, Piper .
Monte spent a lot of time riding his bike all around the neighborhood, happily!
I went rock climbing and learned to Zumba! (So much fun!)
The kids and I had a blast at Dream Night at the Zoo, meeting Star Wars Characters, our good friends from Krispy Kreme (they sponsored Monte's 5K), and a really friendly slimy black tongued giraffe.
We spent the night in a HAUNTED hotel in Eureka Springs. SPOOKY!
We hung out with tigers and lions and oh my! nearly got sprayed by one! (Look at how hard Monte's laughing!
We took a trip to Oregon and California, seeing Grandma Bev and Jerry, Piper did make-up on G'ma Cathy, and lots of fun with my family as well...too much fun to take pictures.
We got to see our dear friends, Craig and Molly, who put on their own 5k for Monte's bike.
We rode on a super demon fast speedboat!
Piper started Kindergarten. (Cue the cute curly hair and big smiles!)
We had fun at halloween decorating faces and pumpkins...then slaughtered them to turn into dozens of loaves of pumpkin bread, pumpkin cookies, and pumpkin waffles.
I had a wonderful experience with a group of amazing women performing The 10 Virgins.
We met Santa at least 13 times. (Pictured here with santa at a special Make a Wish event in St. Louis)
We got to celebrate Christmas with Santa at THE CHATEAU, thanks to our great friends Amanda and Chad.
And a dozen other things! But those are some fun highlights.
