Seanna is 4!



The birthday has come and gone. I have to say that Seanna had a pretty good time for a couple of days. On her actual birthday, she and I went to see Charlotte's Web. This was actually heer 2nd movie at the theater, but this was special due t it being just the 2 of us. She really enjoyed the show except for that part about the animals talking. Animals don't talk, that is just crazy. That evening the Gills came over and we had pizza for dinner. What a way to cap off the day. Overall, I believe that she had a good birthday.

On Saturday, both sets of grandparents, Uncle Scott, Aunt Kari and Rhonda came over for some Strawberry Shortcake cake and ice cream. Then Seanna got to open more girts. That was the best part for her. And she has been playing with all the new toys ever since. Good thing for them since the weather has turned bitterly cold making it tought to go outside.

That is about all the news we have from our house. 'Til next time....

Take Care,
Dena, Jared and the girls.

Oh, the holidays!

Well, another holiday season is over. The girls weren't so sure about the whole thing until they saw the presents. We even had to take our tree down sooner then inticapated due to Seanna consistent asking about more presents. We also got a chance to see both sets of grandparents over the holidays--which made everyone happy. You will see from the pictures all the loot that they received. Overall, they love all the new things that they got. And now with the thank-you's sent out, we are starting the preparations for the next event, Seanna's 4th birthday. More pictures to come after her party.

Take Care,
Dena & Jared & the girls

November.....

Well, we have all been doing pretty well this past month. Cassidy had some type of little "bug" for a couple of days but nothing major. We were able to go visit with my parents the weekend before the Thanksgiving holiday. Then we spent Thanksgiving day with Jared's parents and 2 of his brothers and Aunt Carol for Denver~it was a very nice day. Hard to believe that the holiday season is upon us already though. Now it is the rush to get everything done before the next holiday.

Going back to October, the girls had a very good time trick-or-treating. Seanna was Snow White this year and got to wear her costume most of the day on Halloween. She did a lot better this year than last year. Miss Cassidy was a lady bug, but that was not her first or 2nd choice. That was a costume that Seanna had worn a couple years previous. The first costume that we got for Cassidy was a Minnie Mouse, but found out to late that it was too small for her. The stores didn't have any more left in the next bigger size. We ended up getting a rag doll costume, but one time getting that one on determined that she was not going to put up with that AGAIN!!!!! So, I dug out the ladybug.....and it seemed to work.

The first week of the month, there was a lot of activity in our neighborhood with the ABC show Extreme Home Makeover building a house about 2 1/2 blocks from our house. I know that this event made me like a moth to a light. Something about it being so close made me want to go over there constantly. And of course, I got to go on the reveal day and say "move that bus!". It was all very interesting. I can't wait to see the finished show on tv.

Otherwise, it has been a very nice month. We have had some good times with loved ones and some wonderful quiet moments at home. All in all, I must say it was a blessed month.......

Our little bug....

"Are we cute or what?"
"Snow White don't have nothing on me!"

Yes, folks, that is TY~ And again.....

Right before the reveal, can see the bus waiting to be moved.
