Family

I love the snow and was a bit worried about the lack of it recently. I sure hope we can keep it around until Christmas.
Annie and I sure enjoyed playing in the snow the other day for almost two hours. We shoveled it off our driveway (such a great workout). Then stomped in it, I guess that is hilarious to an 18 month old. I also taught her to eat it and all the sudden snow was so yummy. I love watching her enjoy new experiences.

Lately Annie wants to do everything I am doing, especially working in the kitchen. One of her favorites is to sweep the floor it hapens daily at our house. She also loves doing the dishes with me, which really means splash water ALL OVER and wipe soapy bubbles on me. We really have a fun time though. The other day she helped us make oreo cookies, we had a great time. She loved stirring the dough, watching them bake in the oven and best of all eating them. I just love my little helper.

Better late than never. Sorry for the lack of blogging lately. We cancelled our internet on the computer and I have been trying to figure out how to post from my phone.
We had a very fun halloween with our cute little kitty (she would even meow). Kade's work did trick or treating at the office, Annie enjoyed it better than door to door on Saturday.
We also had a party with friends Sunday. Thanks for all the fun to everyone who came.

July was a fun and busy month. We enjoyed going the the Stadium of Fire for the 4th. Our neice Maylee was blessed. Annie and I had a lot of fun swimming almost everyday. That little girl is such a fish. And the fun doesn't end we have more fun coming in August. I love the Summer! OH and Annie learned how to walk. She is such a big girl, she loves her new freedom.

Well I guess I am not done blogging, I wanted to share about our awesome trip to visit my family. We had an amazing time with them. We really enjoyed the warm weather. There are a lot of pictures because we were able to do so much there and I had a hard time picking which ones to put up. We had so much fun taking Annie to the beach for her fist time. She loves animals especially fish so it was fun to watch her enjoy the aquarium there. We were also able to go on a snorkeling day trip while my mom watched Annie. The highlight was swimming right up to an eagle ray. My favorite was spending the weekend at a resort with my family. There was also plenty of time for relaxing by their pool and reading, making jewelry with my mom, playing games, eating out and we did make it to a Christopher Columbus museum. It was in my dictionary the perfect vacation.
