#4

In one year, Aaron has officially ripped 4 dress shirts in the elbow. I have turned 3 of them into short sleeve shirts. How does he do this? I don't know. But now I know what to get him for Christmas!

Caroline's New Pants

Before I started Henry's stocking I wanted to do just a few projects. Caroline needed another pant for the winter. I copied a cute jean, added a few extra touches and she has a new pair of corduroy pants. I'm pretty proud of myself... that's why you get to see my simple accomplishment!

New Niece

My Best Friend (and Sister), Michelene, had a baby Saturday. Sweet baby girl, Callay. Welcome to the world! Caroline and Henry are so excited for you to be their cousin. Love you!

So sweet

A few nights ago, Caroline, Henry and I ran outside to get a few vegetables out of the garden for dinner. We had to hurry as it was getting cold, dark and I was in the middle of cooking dinner on the stove. So we ran outside and as we were running inside, Caroline was moving her arms faster than her little legs and she said "Got to hurry before it gets soaking dark out here." Oh, it just made me smile.

Birthday Parties

Caroline had a friend birthday party AND a family party! She thought it was October 5 on 3 different days!

Friend Party: Games, Bounce house, dessert and presents

Happy Birthday Caroline! Caroline is 3 years old. Wow! And I expect so much sometimes. :)

Morning of her birthday

Focusing really hard to open the card

The only thing she said she wanted was a choo choo train
A smile to the camera... lucky

We took her downstairs to see what Grandmama, Papa Wood and Aaron and I got her. (She only associates Grandmama getting her this present as well as everything else she opened that morning. Oh besides Aunt Jill's treats and lollipops. "Have to say 'thank you'"... she says after everytime she sees her goodies!)

Watching it blow up...

Getting inside

Jumping in it...

Totally loving it...

She got a bounce house!

Happy Day, my sweet child

What's with the slow down?

Mission 2 accomplished. 2 Down. 2 to go! I finished Aaron's stocking today. I'm so proud. :) I love it too. (If you recall, I started it in March.) But every spare minute, second, car ride, movie, show, wake-up in the middle of the night went to my stocking. Hello world! I'm back.. until this weekend. That is when I will begin Henry's stocking and attempt to finish it before Christmas.

St. Mary's Glacier

Hike.. me? Yes. It was only a mile and a half- round trip. :) AND it was beautiful. A picture of the scenery on the way up.

Sunday Dress

Darling Henry and... Caroline trying to take the show... She will not let me take pictures of her unless I want to take pictures of Henry. So here you have her and her personality!
