Easter 2010

Easter was fun, we had Heath's parents down from Wyoming. It snowed like 10 feet, so the egg hunt was inside and fairly uneventful. Did I mention there was candy?
I ate it and then I had gas.

"Sharing"':

A little girl and her bike...

Together, sometimes...

Another successful Christmas. This year we spent our time in Wyoming with Heath's family: above is a picture of us on Christmas Eve.

School has started again for me. Another full-time semester, and more work than I care to share with others. I work part time at the restaurant as a server, still. I am with my two children and husband with what little time I have during the day- I am so grateful for the love and support of all my family and friends!
This past year has brought some changes for McKenzie- such as: potty training, turning 3, seeing the princesses, being a princess, playing with princesses, talking like a princess, watching movies, (OK- so not very many of those are changes, but she is grown up before our eyes)...She has a big personality to go along with her big smile!

Morgan is 9 months old. He is in the 90% and above for height, weight, and head size. He wants to be mobile but lacks the basic understanding of how to work his body (thank goodness). Our family dynamic has changed completely since the birth of Morgan last April- we are so happy to have him... Such a good boy. Also- he has four (almost five) teeth now.

Heath is working as Manager at the restaurant. He is excited about a new job he just started at a local academy for older kids- he will be teaching them to fly as part of their extra curricular activities. He has only been an employee for one week and has yet to know if he really enjoys the job. The big deal is- he gets to fly everyday!

Thanksgiving 2009

It was Morgan's 1st Thanksgiving! Our holiday was spent at The Parents' House with family, friends, new faces, and food. Sadly, there were no left-overs which is really the only reason to make all of that food. Cold turkey sandwiches are my favorite.

Happy Holidays!

Halloween 2009

Yep, that is my son in a Raggedy Andy costume.

McKenzie wanted to be a Little Mermaid.

I found the costume online and I could not resist!

Also, they can be used as blackmail pictures later.

We went Trick-or-Treating, the real way- not the fake "out of the back of the car-treating". McKenzie had a blast- we all did.

...I Still Live & Breath...

Life is fun. I promise I didn't drop off the face of the earth. School is my life right now, besides my family and work- all of which keep me very busy.

Heath takes care of both of the kids while I go to school everyday in the morning. I have a wonderful husband who isn't afraid of being with his two small children. I appreciate his love and support.

I am taking 16 credits this fall- it's a lot of work. I get to start teaching with my partner, Heidi, in November. I am really looking forward to it (knock on wood).

McKenzie is a lovable yet challenging little 3 year old. I can't believe how hard it is raising a toddler. She is taking dance classes once a week- SHE LOVES IT! She has quite a personality, already. Who said girls are easier?! Did someone really say that?

Morgan is one of the sweetest babies I've ever met. :) He can roll from front to back and back to front. He likes to talk and laughs a lot. He is eating rice cereal, oatmeal, and formula. I'm not sure of his exact weight but he is very large and handsome.
