This is Brayden shredding...at the Kalahari Resort. :) The past few years we've gone to Great Wolf Lodge (indoor waterpark hotel) for a few days at Thanksgiving and this year, we tried out the Kalahari Resort. Pretty much the same thing, only it was WAY BIGGER. We've met up with our friends every year there and had adjoining rooms so all the kids can have free reign of the joint, but this year we did a combo room that slept 12 of us and was basically like a large apartment with bedrooms, it was fun. Kai loved the fireplace, Saydria loved the jetted tub and we set up the projector for the kids to watch a movie on the wall (after a little rearranging of the furniture.) The waterpark has a wavepool and the flowrider (they actually had 2) and it's open from 9am to 10pm, so you can run yourself pretty ragged for a few days and it's a pretty awesome feeling. They bring in animals and you can get your picture taken with them. We saw a baby kangaroo and a baby tiger, but we didn't pay the $$ to get pics with them...plus, I had bed head still. :) But they were fun to see.

2nd tag
Thanks to Cassie for the tag. :)
CRAZY 8'S
8 T.V. SHOWS I ♥ TO WATCH~
1.} 24...Kevin and I just watched the 1st season and it was really good. We need to get the 2nd season. Yeah, we are slow.
2.} Smallville...we watch these on DVD also, but we are only 1 season behind.
3.} Dancing with the Stars...except I couldn't stand that Cloris lady on there, she was terrible and I'm sure they kept her on there to make her happy, so I quit watching for a while.
4.} I watch tv when I run on the treadmill and it's usually during Dancing with the Stars.
5.} Don't have cable
6.} but if we did
7.} this would all
8.} be filled in and that's why we don't. :)
8 of MY FAVORITE RESTAURANTS~
1.} Genji
2.} Smoky Bones
3.} Panera
4.} Chipotle
5.} Mexican food
6.} Pizza
7.} Cheesecake Factory
8.} Sushi joints
8 THINGS THAT HAPPENED YESTERDAY
1.} Cole said a pretty good sentence! "Alex. Jason. Downstairs. Watch. Funny." (Our friends dropped their kids off here and Cole was saying that he was downstairs watching a funny movie with Alex and Jason!)
2.} It snowed a little.
3.} I went out with some girls to see Twilight. (The book is better...aren't they almost always though?) And I made a conscious effort to bring my camera. I'll post a picture later. :)
4.} I sang Old MacDonald like 10 times to Cole. He loves that song.
5.} Saydria lost a tooth at school, her 4th one.
6.} Kevin and I danced in the kitchen.
7.} Kevin danced with Cole in the kitchen.
8.} Kai and I tried to make an ice cube outside, but we got a leak in our little bucket.
8 THINGS I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO~
1.} A vacation
2.} Kevin coming home any second.
3.} Making some food for the guys this evening. Kevin deserves a good break...he had 7 kids for 6 hours while I was gone with the girls.
4.} Seeing friends and family we haven't seen in a while.
5.} My baby turing 2!
6.} My husband turning 32
7.} Summer
8.} Hanging out with friends this evening.
8 THINGS ON MY WISH LIST~
1.} Move back to Hawaii like yesterday.
2.} A really amazing heat wave to strike, and have it last for like 4 months.
3.} Qualify for the Ford Ironman in HI and then be able to complete it there.
4.} Time could just slow down because my kids are growing too quickly!
5.} That I could shoot a handgun with better accuracy.
6.} I'd like to own a private island, but keep it private...so even if it happens, only Kevin and I will know about it, not even our kids. They can just think we like to visit this little island and play there and not worry about other tourists.
7.} I wish I could surf better, so that when we do move back to Hawaii, I can enter the Eddie Aikau and win the grand prize. (I don't know what it is for sure, but at least I'd win, right?)
8.} When my little Cole is 12 years old, I'd like to have all of us SCUBA certified and do a liveaboard somewhere in the South Pacific.
8 PEOPLE I'M TAGGING~
1.} Meghan...even though you probably already did this like 5 years ago. :)
2.} Amanda
3.} Allison
4.} Amy
5.} Annie
6.} Jenny
7.} Kelly
8.} Emi
