December 15th weekend

Have been really busy with everything going on in CO, getting ready for the move to OR.

This weekend we had one showing at the house on Saturday and one on Sunday, so we basically had to get out for a while both days (not to mention cleaning the house too)... I am getting really tired of always making sure there is nothing left on the counters, tables, floors, vacuuming, etc.!
To do something on Saturday we went to the Bigg's City. It's an indoor play center. They have SO much to do there: laser tag, carousel, race car track, Little Bigg Town (with dress up, climbing, sand box, music and so much more), inflatables room, bowling alley, arcades, birthday rooms, food, and more!

Temperatures outdoors were pretty cold (I believe 14 degrees was the high for the day), so this was our best option.

We got there right before lunch time (and I brought our own food to save money) and stayed till 8pm! We had all day passes, so it only made sense to "get the money worth out of it"...

On Sunday we had to leave house a little earlier, so there wasn't that much we could do, other than going to the Mall.

We were going to see a movie, but the earliest show wasn't till noon and we got there at 10:30am. After walking around the stores we came to Claire's Boutique store. Larissa has been asking to get her ears pierced for a while, so we just went ahead and did an Early Christmas present for her.

She was such a trooper! She didn't even blink when they used the earrings "gun". When it was all done, all she said was: "oh, that was it? It didn't even hurt, Mom. You said it would!"
Larissa picked out little studs with her birth stone to use as a starter earrings. Now, every time she gets dressed or brushes her hair, she makes a comment like "be careful, watch the earrings!"
