Fiesta Days

Ay Ay ay ay......most would think when they hear the words Fiesta Days of a Mexican party. It's not! It is my parents community celebration for Memorial Day. 

We always spend Menorial day there to enjoy the parade they put on and the vendors, games, and fun they put on at the end of the mile stretch of the parade.



The kids love love loved the parade especially the candy, tennis balls and bands. 

Zeke especially loved the jumpers and rides at Fiesta Days.....


while Zoie......napped 


Hope you all enjoyed your Memorial Day. And to those who have fallen while protecting this beautiful country of ours.....THANK YOU!

Cruisin'

One of my best friends is getting married so in getting married style we had to have the bachelorette party. Her and her fiancĂ© met on a cruise ship while both working, so going on a cruise was very fitting!  We took a short little 3 day (booze) cruise.  It was a lot of fun, my first time on ship/cruise, and I'm glad it's over.....wedding time!  Brandon had the kids all weekend and did an amazing daddy daycare job, even with activities and sports and all! He's super dad in my eyes! 

4th Annual Kirk Klan Ugly Sweater Party

As you can tell by the word annual, this is our Kirk family tradition. We have an ugly sweater party every year for Christmas. We deck out our whole house, garage, ourselves, and have a great time with friends and family. I usually make everything home made with some help from my mom and all her and my grandma's recipes.  This year I wanted to make it as simple but still cute as possible. I decided on a chili bar as the main entree.  I also delegated everyone that would help to make my favorite chili they make. SCORE! Way less work for me! Muahahahaha!  My dad made his tri tip chili, my mom made her white chicken chili, and Brandon made his pulled pork chili.  Besides the fact that we always make way too much food, the chili was definitely a hit. Of course the chefs tested everyone on who they thought had the best chili. They are all delicious in my eyes, obviously!  I did pitch in a little and made some appetizers and corn bread! Oh and I did all the decorating...

Celebrating Fall

This month kicked off the Fall season.....and we took full advantage of it and did so many fun Fall activities.  Pumpkin patches: Zeke's favorite word by far is definitely "punkin" so him being at a pumpkin patch was by far the highlight of his month.  The farm we went to had a family night so we gathered some friends and headed out! Pony rides, petting zoo, "punkins", train rides, and even a corn maze.....done and done!!!!  Apple picking: Every year we head out to the local apple county with a couple families, choose a farm, and get a pickin! For some reason, my genius self decided to find other options than where we went last year! Obviously, that was not a great idea. Not only did we spend triple from last year, but there were almost NO apples! The pears were delicious and abundant. Like I said, apples were far from that! They had 3 different types and right before we left we found a couple trees in the parking lot where we not only filled up our bags, but al...
