Flagstaff 2009

Just before the new year, Mark and I decided to take the dogs on a road trip up to Flagstaff, AZ. We drove up and played in the snow, and then stayed in a pet friendly hotel for the night. It snowed the whole day we were there, and of course the next day on the way home was clear as a bell. I think Obi really enjoyed the snow, but Anakin wasn't to fond of it. I leave you with some pictures of our trip:

Kiss Concert

In December, Mark and I went to the KISS concert. I have to say that I am not a huge KISS fan, and only know some of their most popular songs. However, this was one of the best concerts that I have ever been too. They are not just rock musicians, but performers. They sure put on a show for us, and got the entire audience involved several times throughout the night. This is one concert I will never forget.

Thanksgiving 2009

For Thanksgiving 2009, we traveled to San Diego to spend time with my family. My brother and sister-in-law hosted a wonderful dinner at their house.

And the dogs so desperately wanted to come in and get a hold of some of that delicious turkey.

Halloween 2009

Our Halloween started out with a night of pumpkin carving. You be the judge on which ones looks better.

We also had our first annual Halloween party this year. Mark's decorations around the house were a big hit.

On Halloween night, we celebrated by dressing up and handing out candy to the kids, while sitting out at the end of our driveway with our neighbor Tracee. This has been something we do with Tracee every year since we moved to Arizona.

Afterwards, Mark and I headed over to McFadden's Restaurant & Saloon to continue enjoying the Halloween night and to watch all those that arrived in costume for their costume contest.
