Pumpkin Patch!

  On Monday, I took the girls to the pumpkin patch at the Underwood Family Farms. This was the first huge public outing I have done by myself. Thankfully my friend Paige carpooled with me so she helped me out quite a bit.

For some reason I thought a Monday morning would not have very many people, but I forgot. I live in southern California. Every place you go has a bazillion people! I was a little in stress mode, but it turned out to be an awesome day!

Superbowl!

We had our traditional Superbowl party this year. It was a good turnout! We had fried chicken, the superbowl cake, chips and queso and other awesome game foods.

Church Ball: 3 on 3 Tournament

Brian refereed in the 2nd Annual South Pasadena Elders Quorum Basketball Tournament. Lots of competition this year.

Christmas in Boston 2010

For Christmas time we went to Boston to visit Brian's parents. What fun!

BYU vs UCLA Basketball Game

On Saturday we went to the BYU basketball game in Anaheim's Honda Center. Time to bust out the old BYU garb!

Veronica Goes to Ellen's 12 Days of Christmas

**I know this is last week's news but I have had about 15 minutes of toddler-free spare time all week! We have been crazy busy with holiday parties and church stuff so I'm sorry for just getting to this now.**

Well last Wednesday, I went with my friend Paige to the first day of Ellen's 12 Days of Christmas. YAAAAAAAAY! (I hope that accurately illustrates how cool this was!) For those of you unfamiliar with the "12 Days of Christmas", it is 12 days in the month of December that Ellen Degeneres gives away fabulous prizes to EACH member of her TV show audience that day (anything from vacations to mattresses to electronics).

Oregon Trip 2010

Last week I got back from my trip to Oregon. It was the first time in FIVE years that the bottom six sisters (my siblings I actually grew up with) could all get together. We had so much fun!

Day at the Beach with Uncle Pat and Aunt Barbara

Today we got to hang out with Uncle Pat and Aunt Barbara, Brian's mom's brother and sister, and their families down at Doheny. They are so awesome!

Weekend fun with the Fam

This weekend we had some visitors! Brian's parents Claude and Marlena flew in from Boston and Christie from Utah. We had a full house!

Board Game Recommendation: "Pandemic"

 Over Christmas break, we started playing the game called "Pandemic". This game is AWESOME! And now that we're hooked, we thought we would pass it along to you and infect the world! How to play: you are specialists for the CDC and you have to save the world from being infected from diseases before a world-wide pandemic outbreak occurs.
