Playdate for Tori and Tristan

So today we had a super fun playdate for Tori and Tristan. Tori had 5 of her friends over and Tristan had 3. They both had a great time playing and the playdate went really well considering all the kids in attendance. Here are some cute pics!

Happy Birthday Grandma and Grandpa

On Friday we had a small birthday party for Val and Bob. Travis made his famous spicy Enchiladas and Tori and I made homemade chocolate cupcakes with chocolate icing. Tori decorated a cute banner and we opened a few presents. It was really fun and Tori had the best time seeing her grandparents.

New Years Eve at the Paulson's

For new years eve we watched Kya and Kiana and the girls had a BLAST! We made brownies, ran around, screamed, rode on scooters and ride ons, jumped in the bounce house, ate pizza, ate brownie sundaes, celebrated the new year with a 7 pm count down by banging pots and pans, blowing noise makers and drinking apple cider. The kids all had a great time!! Here are some pictures from the chaos!

Happy 2009!!

Well another year has come and gone and what a remarkable year it has been for the Paulson's! We introduced a new member Tristan Thomas Paulson to our family. He is the sweetest baby boy and we absolutely adore him. Tori started her first year of pre school, is potty trained, she has learned hundreds of new words and concepts and is one of the funniest, sassiest most amazing little girls. We are really happy to be home in Seattle and our so greatful for the friends and family in our lives. My only major complaint about 2008 is that it went by soooooooooooooo fast!! I am looking forward to a much slower paced 2009 and enjoying every day with my amazing hubby and kids!
