DaLLaS

Just a few pics of our cute and fun boy!

He is hilarious these days, saying the funniest things and keeping a smile on our faces at all times :) We love you Dallas!

He brought a balloon and his own football to watch SUU practice

He enjoys wearing my uggs around the house...although, he can't walk so well in them

We couldn't get him to wear a costume on Halloween, but then he was begging to be a tiger on a random weeknight :)

Last week he helped me with my 2nd attempt at cupcake pops...

He was such a good little helper and had so much fun!

dipping...

sprinkling...

smiling...

and enjoying!

last home game :(

Last weekend SUU played their last home game! It has been such a fun season going to games, taking Dallas to practice and hanging out with the other coaches families.

It has definitely been a big change for us, but we really have loved it. Teag works some LOOOONG hours, but he loves every minute of it. He is so happy and absolutely loves his job. There is so much to be said for that and it has been worth the sacrifices and changes that we have made. I am so proud of him for all his hard work and success! This is definitely what he should be doing :)

I LOVE the beautiful view of the red mountains in the background!

The team running out of the tunnel...Dallas gets so excited but then reminds everyone around us that "my daddy in the booth".

We were SO excited to have some visitors down for the game! Chad & Meg and Brent & Elaine came down for the game and weekend.

Everyone was bundled to the max because it was FREEZING!!!

It was windy and started snowing so a couple times we'd had enough and went in the football office to watch in warmth

Poor Dallie's nose was so cold and he refused to wear his little gloves for most of the game

Dallas and Mommy

Mister loves getting a hot dog at the game...he usually chucks the bun on the ground

(when he doesn't top it with ketchup and the sour blue powder!)

Aunt Meg is so fun and Dallas loves playing with her!

Thanks for coming down guys! We had so much fun and hope you come back to see us soon :)

Summit, NJ

Last week Dallas and I went to Summit to see the O'Neils and Jake and Em.

We had so much fun hanging out, playing with the kids, making yummy treats and going to the Rangers game!

view of NYC on our flight in


the Statue of Liberty from the plane window


Dallas was so good on the flight and in the airport!
He was such a helper and had to pull his own suitcase

these two cuties were so excited to see each other!

our first night we went to Jake and Scott's rec league basketball game
It's pretty entertaining when you have former NBA players on the teams!

Dallas loved watching his uncles in action!

Dallas and Lizie being silly and having fun together

cutest little Eliza

these two were so cute and had so much fun together

(when Dallas wasn't tackling Eliza and putting her in headlocks...)

cute sisters Eliza and Alexa

Dallas and Eliza had the time of their life cruising around in Lizie's Barbie jeep!

Dallas attempted driving, but kept crashing, so Eliza mostly took the wheel

Eliza got this little vanity for her birthday and one night while we were all in the kitchen I noticed Dallas was missing...I went into the family room and he was admiring himself in the mirror! I asked him what he was doing and he told me "putting on my makeup, mommy"

uh-oh, don't tell Teag :)

Dallas, Kira and Eliza having ice-cream after their baths

Alexa had sports day at school so she wore her Rangers jersey...she looked so cute!

just playing around :)

Eliza enjoying her lollipop

Soooo.....Lisa and I attempted to make Bakerella's cupcake pops.

They looked nothing like they were supposed to, but they were DELICIOUS!

Jake and Scott actually said they are one of the best things they had ever tasted.

Lisa holding up one of our finished pops next to the picture of what they were supposed to look like...we were DYING laughing SO hard at our pops!

We showed the girls and Alexa said "um, they don't look very good", but once the girls tasted them they were loving them too

Lisa and Kira working on dipping

Don't look too close!!!

the kiddos playing around and being silly

Dallas had a blast wrestling with Uncle Jake

Scott took the kids for a ride around the house on his suitcase...they may have enjoyed this even more than the park!

so funny!

Lex getting in on the fun

Lisa and I took "the babies" to walk around the shops in downtown Summit.

They were so cute wearing their backpacks around!

love them!

Lisa and Lizie coloring together

so sweet

this was Eliza striking a pose for me :)

Rangers Game!

I was so excited to experience my first Rangers game!

This was definitely the way to do it...fun gift bags, dinner in Suite 200 before the game and front row seats behind the team. The Rangers lost, but it was such a good game and so much fun.

I am totally a fan!

HAD to get my picture here :)

It was fun to be in NYC...it is funny because for how many times we have been to Summit, we don't ever go into the City!

Jake, Lisa and I in Scottie's office before the game

The Rangers!!!

I was an instant fan watching these guys in action

Henrik the goalie is my new favorite player :)

We even got a fight!

I remember going to Golden Eagle hockey games when I was little and Kim and I would dare each other to yell "fight! fight!"

Jake, Em and I in our fun seats!

after a big goal!

If it wasn't a school night the kids would have come too.

Alexa and Kira sport their jerseys and give the players five when they come in and out of the tunnel...so fun! Keeks has even gotten a stick from one of the players :)

Em and I

She and Jake are expecting in February and were discussing which Rangers jersey their little girl will be wearing at the games next year

The business men busy at work at all times...

and cute Mr. Dallas on our flight home!

He was so good, yet again. He was all set with his pirate's booty and his Cars dvd :)

Thanks for a great week O'Neils and Jake and Em!

We can't wait to see you in a few short weeks for Christmas!!!
