Out of Africa
We had a great weekend with Katie's grandparents. We went to Out of Africa Wildlife Park out in Camp Verde. About a hour or so away from our house, totally worth the drive!
The baby zebra was so cute! We learned that baby zebras are born with brown stripes so they can blend in better til they get older.
Below is the Tiger Splash Show. It was pretty awesome with the trainers running with the toys, getting the tigers to chase after them.

Out of Africa is just an amazing zoo. We recommend it to everyone!

New Years at Disneyland
Howard and I celebrated New Years at Disneyland...we thought it would be the perfect way to bring in 2011! The biggest reason I wanted to go at this time of year is to see Disneyland decorated with Christmas Decorations.
Its A Small World - Loved ALL the lights!
The Castle...so beautiful!!!
All of a sudden Buzz came out of no where and posed for a picture for us!
We had such a great time...just the two of us!
We're really looking forward to a fantastic new year!
Gingerbread Contest 2010
On Christmas Eve we had our Annual Gingerbread Contest. This year, everyone worked VERY hard on the houses because there was a prize!!
This side represents, Katie's brother, Rand's family with the camo, a baby, a dog and a cat.
And this side is my parents...with their yellow kitchen and blue door.
Katie's mom and dad's Gingerbread House:
They took the sentimental path...their house represented their family. :)

This side represents Howard and Katie...since we're selling our house and moving to the East Valley. (Nuttybars = moving boxes)
Katie's cousins, James and Dakin's log cabin.
And without talking, Katie's Aunt Colleen and Uncle George did a log cabin too! (such a cute idea!)
And the winner is (2 years in a row, might I add!) is our Gingerbread House! Our Gingerbread House was sponsored by Mr. Hersey...even though he didn't give us any endorsements. ;)
Its such a great tradition making our Gingerbread houses...thanks Grandma and Grandpa! :)
Wild Life World Zoo
We went to the Wild Life World Zoo with the Davis Family. I love this zoo because you can get close to the animals and really see them.
Byran was the brave one who fed the giraffes.

Thanksgiving 2010
This year we went to the Sand Dunes for Thanksgiving weekend. We had so much fun, but FROZE!! It literally was freezing!
We were cold and didn't care how we looked all bundled up.
