Thanks Giving weekend we decided to visit Branson at Silver Dollar City. It was a fun day. They have a really nice theater that did a marvelous "Dickens Christmas Carol." They have over 4 million lights in their very cute old village park. We loved the Christmas parade. And as Lydia would say, "Ho, Ho, Ho." For Santa.

Getting BIG!

It is so crazy to watch her climb off of objects. She is big enough to rock herself! Growing way to fast! Slow down baby!

The Tulsa ZOO

In Tulsa, OK they have a great zoo! It is really open and you see the animals really well. I loved the chimpanzees! They are the cutest little families! I just loved all the animals and was amazed to watch them move and think about their creation.

A fun weekend and Birthday

For date night we went to the cemetery where Sam Walton is buried. (He is the starter of Walmart) We had a name hunt. We saw some old graves from the 1600's there. It was really good to get a perspective on life again. It really is short and what matters the most is living a good life and helping your family come back home to Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ.

Of all the presents and fun night. Books still hold her heart!
She wasn't sure about her cake and then when she tried it....she
started to shove it in her mouth! If you go to youtube
and look up Smash that birthday cake you can see her cake experience.

first words

Since she was a newborn the song Old McDonald has always had a calming affect on her. She would always just stop crying and listen to it. Now when you ask her "on his farm he had a;......." she will answer with an animal. She knows dog, cat, and cow. When you say the sounds for sheep, chickens, and horse she will copy you. Her other words are book, tongue, ball, bottle, mom, dad, all done. But as you can imagine some are really close and others are almost all the way pronounced. It is so fun hearing her talk!!

Bows!Bows! Bows! The internet has great instructions!

2009-09-17T18:15:00.000-07:00

I have been loving to make bows for gifts and for Lydia! I wanted to show how to do them in case anyone wanted to know how easy and fun it is. It is great to have a bow party. Several people bring flowers from the dollar store and take them apart. To hold them together using any size of brad. Then layer and make your own styles large or small. For the centers buttons, jewels, or even mix matching centers to make a fun flower bow. I also like to make ribbon bows. You can look up a lot of fun instructions on the internet.

Daddy turned 26 on Sunday!It was a great day. He had a lot of great support come and see him for cake and ice-cream. The only regret I have as being a hostess was I forgot to take pictures. We had trouble cake. (Grandma's famous cold sheet cake. White cake, with a delicious cream cheese frosting and a strawberry and berry mix on top.)

I love walmarts Associate store. They have a lot of great bargins....so I do have to be careful that I don't buy everything. For Halloween I got her a little bug costume there. It will fit larger sizes, too. I tried it on her to see how it fit...and was laughing so hard at my "little lady bug."

My very sweet husband bought me tickets to go to UT and ID for a weekend and a half. I was able to go and see my cousin's wedding, my brother graduate college, and just have a wonderful western summer vacation!! I loved seeing family and some great friends!!!

Monday was our 2 year anniversary!! We actually calibrated it on Saturday. We went on a canoeing trip. Then we went out to a movie and Chinese dinner. It was a baffae. That was fun trying all the different foods. We have learned a lot in the past two years together and have much more to learn..........I love you sweetie!

Two piggy tails!

We went to Branson Missouri. It is a big tourist town. They have a huge outlet mall. We went shopping!! And found some very good deals there. We then went to Riply's believe it or not museum. It was very interesting. We saw art work of unusual design. We had a great trip. The fourth we were able to meet up with old friends from our last ward and watch the fireworks from Memorial park.

Believe it or Not!

We went mountain biking on our first payed baby sitting date. Wow..I feel old to be getting a baby sitter. It was a lot of fun. We went on the easiest trail, which was still intense for me. My bike is a little old. But it was beautiful and fun going through the trees. I can't believe some of the paths that have ramps made out of tree logs. There are some professionals that go there!!

Father's day! 1st office day for daddy! I made him a picture tie. I want to make a tradition to make him something to wear to church that show his kids love for him!! We love you DADDY!!!

Friday night Cam dyed my hair for me. I tried dark again. He was a sweetie and was very patient and a perfectionist in doing it...

2009-06-08T18:52:00.000-07:00

This is the first attempt at piggy tails.

"She wore an isty, bitsy, teeny, weeny,...."

With Walmart they have a share holders meeting and special visitors.

Flying

2009-06-02T20:34:00.000-07:00

I was a little scared to watch my baby fly 10 feet in the air. She seemed to enjoy the ride. What a rush baby! That is what Daddy's are for!
