Interesting events

Greetings All!!!

Again, it has been a couple of months since my last post. Really, I will work on getting new information & pictures out here on more regular basis. I mean that will also give me the opportunity to take more pictures of our quickly growing girls. CRAZY FAST!!!!

So, since I last wrote~these things have happened: we are still taking the girls to dance. They will have a receital in mid-June. We got a Wii~lots and lots of fun. We purchased a camper (but have yet to take it out, still working on practicing the set-up/tear down, made a trip to Ogallala for a niece's graduation & Cassidy broke her arm. That is right--she fell off a slide & has a buckle fracture in her left radius. She is currenly sporting a hot pink cast. It is very flashy. And this has made her even more independent.

So, as you can see--we have been kept hopping & jumping in the past few months. I am just hoping that even if the summer looks busy, we keep it pretty uneventful with the medical issues. :)

Take Care!!!

A 5th birthday & trip to Sesame Street

The birthday girl.
Yesterday we helped to celebrate Seanna's 5th birthday. Hard to believe that she is already 5!! One more summer and she will be a school-ager~ Goodness, are we ready for that?

Before the show.

We started the day out by going to see Sesame Street Live. It was a good and lively show. I would recommend for anyone with little ones to attend a showing.


Then we stopped and had Mickey D's for lunch. We had time for a short nap before the Grandma's and Grandpa's came over for a party. It was a good day....Seanna was just delighted for the entire time she was awake

After the party, we got invited to have PIZZA with Grandma & Grandpa K. And another chance to see the local cousins.

Today, I got the form ready to try to get Seanna accepted in the elementary school next to her daycare....everyone cross your fingers that we get it approved.

It was a very nice weekend overall~and the weather wasn't even that bad!!!!! Good thing for a little girl who just got a bike that she needed to try out.

Take Care everyone~

Dena, Jared & the girls.

Sometimes a little overwhelming.

Yeah, a bike!!! Almost as good as a pony.

Holidaze; Part Deux


The picture tells the whole story.....

So, we celebrated Christmas with the Kraus side of the family on New Year's day. It was a good time. The girls really enjoyed being around their cousins. Cassidy was a little chatterbox with them. Everyone seemed to have a good time~except maybe Kari (who had stayed up a little late into the New Year & her nieces wouldn't give her a moment's peace).

It is good to have all the celebrating over for a while. Although, we do have to start thinking about a birthdya that is quickly approaching. Hmmm, wonder what she could possibly want for that? Probably a pony (NO, Grandpa! That does not mean that you need to go out an buy one for her) .
Anyway, that is all for now! Enjoy the pics~

Take Care.
Dena, Jared & the girls.
The unwrapping begins.
And continues.
What? I haven't had any chocolate!!
"I just love this guy"

This is my good side.....

"Yes she will give me a bite"

"I was wrong! OH, THE AGONY!!"
