Abrie's Christmas recital

2009-12-15T13:18:00.000-08:00

I know its been awhile and I will try and do better, I promise!!

Well Abrie had her first dance recital and it was so cute!! I was surprised because she wasn't shy at all and did so good!! I can't believe how big she is getting. What a little cutie!!

Abrie cheesin' it like usual.

Abrie and her cousin Kambrey.

This is Abrie's cute little class. Her Aunt Trista is the teacher.

Now didn't she look adorable!!! Her papa Norm and Grammy gave her these beautiful flowers at the end and she was so excited!!! I am so proud of her!!

Abrie's first day of preschool!!

2009-09-08T09:01:00.000-07:00

Ok, so I know it's been awhile. Well Abrie started preschool today and I can't believe it!! She was so excited to go, she woke up early and could hardly wait to pick out her clothes and get ready!! Now I am sitting here with 2 hours of free time wondering what to do!! Ha ha, I am sure i will get used to it quick. I just can't believe that she is old enough for all this!!

Abrie and her friend Allie at school.

How did she get this big?

Jesus wants me for a Sunbeam!!!

2009-01-04T17:23:00.000-08:00

Abrie is finally a sunbeam today!!! She has been so excited to be one and go to primary and the second we got in there she cried her eyes out!!! Oh well she will get used to it! I can't believe how big she is getting, I guess she isn't our little baby anymore!! It was kind of sad to say that she is in primary and that she is a big girl now!! Oh my, what next? Preschool?

What a cheeser!! Can you believe that only a few minutes later that smile was a frown, sitting on the teachers lap in her class!!!

And don't worry I know that I have been slacking at the blog I promise to post a ton more pictures of Christmas and all this week! Bear with me, the holidays are busy, and i got lazy!!

Abrie turns 3!!!!!

2008-12-08T21:13:00.000-08:00

Ok, I know I am a little behind on blogging!! Well Abrie turned 3 on November 17th!!! I can't believe it, I don't know how she got so big so fast, its crazy!!! We love her so much and are so thankful to have her in our lives!!! We love you princess, to the moon and back in!

Abrie got so many presents at her party, I think we could skip Christmas!!

Her scooter and dress up!!! What a princess!

Playin at her party.

Happy Birthday to you!!! Time to blow out your candle.

Abrie wouldn't even go inside her bounce house but thanks to her friend Tavie, who promised to hold her hand, she finally had fun!!!

Since it was her birthday she got to help make the cupcakes!!!

YUMMY!!

A date with Grammie and Papa Norm

On the night before Abrie's birthday she got to go on a special birthday date with her Grammie Jo-Jo and Papa Norm. They brought her present over and let her open it, it was this so cute fancy dress, and so she had to wear it!! They took her to the Bear Mill and she made a unicorn, and then she was suppose to go to dinner but she pooped out early!!

Way too tired for dinner!!!

Dumont Dunes!

2008-11-16T16:13:00.001-08:00

Last weekend we took an eventful trip to the dunes!! It started off good, we all loaded up in the motor-home and were on our way. When we got to Vegas we experienced some trailer issues and ended up camping out in a Pizza Hut parking lot until the next morning when the guuys could fix the trailer! Oh well, it ended up being some good fun and we made some good memories, atleast we made it to the dunes and ended up having some fun!!!

Saying goodbye to the Pizza Hut, finally!!

Trent and Jeremy! Good job boys!!

Sid, Brody and Sadie.

Hold on kids!!! Sid is behind the wheel, that could get scary!!

A family picture on the weenie!!

Abrie and Aunt Trista, can you tell she is terrified that this thing might move?

Travis, Rick and crazy Cachet.

Everyone came up with this great idea to have a war with the water weenie and the tube, Trent and Cach were on the tube, Travis and Rick on the weenie, it was hilarious!

Look at me being so brave!!! I love this thing, it is so fun once you put your brave face on!!!

It's always a good time when our professional mellow roaster is aboard!

Ok, I know these pictures need a story! We met these Germans at our camp and they were so nice, they actually had this truck shipped here for 4,000 dollars to travel the U.S. for 3 months. They were so funny and I am sure they thought we were a bunch of crazy Americans!
