Anyway, without further ado.... in chronological order, dating back to before Thanksgiving!!!
Weekly Wednesday Trivia... we have yet to win, but damn... we have a good time!
Thanksgiving at my folks house. Joe and my orphaned friend Zach came, and my mom cooked for 21 people!!!!
Pre-Thanksgiving chaos (aka when the rest of the fam showed up)
Joe and I enjoying some red wine...
My aunt Terry (left) and my mom (right) shared the chef duties...
You know they say about too many cooks in the kitchen!!!
My amazing grandparents Leo and Marge.
I know it's weird, but that's what we've always called them.
... Not grandpa, grandma, or anything like that...
Just sister Kenzie drinkin some white wine in the sink.
Totally normal at our house :-)
After the extended family leaves...

Thanksgiving Weekend... it's Off to Idaho!!! Joe's folks live in Couer d'Alene, Idaho so we drive out there often for some pretty wonderful weekends.
Joe's folks and us at a local bar for a "night cap" as it's called.
Bondi and me in the cabin of Joe's folks' fishing boat.
Yes, Bondi comes with us!!
We went on a cruise on the lake.

Here's our Mail Boss display in "Pallet Alley"
BTW Kansas City is cold and windy. BRRrrr!!!
My Birthday Party at the Tulalip Casino!!! ...or as Joe calls it, "Vegas's home-schooled half-sister that's living with creepy uncle in the woods of North Seattle." We rented out two totally posh (shocking- I know!) rooms at the Tulalip Resort, stocked them with adult beverages, invited some close friends, and had a grand ol' time!!!! BTW they have an amazing pool that we definitely took advantage of... and although there are no pics to prove it (no cameras at the tables- duh!) we definitely gambled our little booties off!!! I won't say how much I did or did not win...
Jen and I... a little pre-game action in the hotel room.
Stay classy!! Oh yes, we will :-)
...and thanks to Joe for being so resourceful with this...
Apples to Apples. 'nuff said.
We had a pool party, oh yes we did!
We also had a hot-tub party.
Lil' awkward thanks to all the irresponsible parents lil' kids
overhearing and witnessing inappropriate stuff...
...and probably peeing too!!! Anywayyy...
Sister Kenzie tells Joe she loves him (for me)
