OBSESSION

As many of you know, Kacie has an obsession with shoes (wonder where she got that?)! Jazzy, a friend at the lake, gave these Barbie sandals to the girls. Kacie wears them non-stop. Surprisingly, they don't slow her down.

Chahinkapa Zoo

Kacie and I went on a field trip with Jordy's class. We had a great time!

Happy Birthday Grandpa Dave

Happy Birthday Grandpa Dave. We love you!!

Happy Birthday Jordy & Grandpa Gary!

Jordy was almost 2 in the first picture. We were vacationing at Grandpa Jim and Grandma Viki's in Arizona. The second picture was a few months ago when we were swimming at the Holiday Inn. What are some of Jordy's favorites--should we ask her?

Favorite food? Tacos
Favorite color? Purple
Favorite movie? High School Musical
Favorite restaurant? Moe's
Favorite thing to do at school? Recess
Favorite thing to do at the lake? Play with my cousins
Do you have a boyfriend? Troy from High School Musical
I thought Troy liked Gabriella? "Mom, we're both foxy so he can like both of us"

Should we be worried? Gotta love her!!


Jordy and Grandpa Gary share a birthday. Love you Grandpa!!

The Little Sister

Kacie and I had a fun time today decorating the house for Jordy's birthday party. Jordy was pretty concerned about what Kacie was going to be doing during "her" birthday party. Jordy did not want Kacie to "annoy" her and her friends. (Not our precious Kacie)! They all had a good time and Jordy even asked Kacie to play with them a time or two.

School Party

Thanks for the awesome cake, Angie! The girls loved it.
The girls put tattoos on each other. Jordy has a puppy on each cheek, one on her neck and several on her legs. Lookin' pretty sharp! In the picture below: no boyfriends this year! Well, besides Troy from High School Musical!

Jordyn will be turning 6 on Saturday the 29th. Wow, how time flies!! She brought cupcakes to school today and then had all 5 girls in her class to our house. They had a blast. They all played so nice. They had pizza, cake and ice cream. We played duck, duck, goose. (6 year old girls are very silly at that game). Musical chairs got pretty rowdy--my ears are still ringing from all the high pitched squeals when the music stopped. They all sang and danced to Hannah Montana and High School Musical! I am so proud of Jordy--such a sweet girl!!

Happy B-Day

The Girls

The girls continue to be best buds. We are so proud of them!

Vacation Time

We went to Orlando for a week. We left the little ones and the Hubbies behind. We went to Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingsom, Sea World, spent a day at the beach, and went La Nouba (Cirque Du Soleil). It was absolutely amazing!! Thanks everyone for such a fun time.

Flyin' Like a Pro

Jordy got her own "wings" from the pilot.

Jackson and Jordy did awesome on the plane. When this picture was taken we hadn't even left Fargo (It was 15 below zero). Jordy had already stripped her sweatshirt off and they both were sportin' the shades.

Beach Bum

Jordy got to see the ocean for the first time. She loved it! She took a few waves to the face and wasn't impressed with the salt water taste. She had fun building sandcastles with Grandpa Dave and Jackson.

Princess Jordy

Jordyn got to meet some of her favorite princesses when we were at Disney World. She was on cloud nine all week long.

Thumper Pond

A few weeks ago we were treated to a fun weekend at Thumper Pond (an indoor water park). My sister and her family were their too. Thank you Rada's and Dietz' for the awesome time!

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday Grandma Viki!! We are so excited to see you in a few weeks.

First Day of School

Jordy enjoyes school. We had conferences with her teacher the beginning of November and they went well. Her teacher says she is a social butterfly---sometimes, too much!! You know what they say: the apple never falls too far from the tree.

SHE WORE AN....

itsy bitsy, teeny weeny, yellow polka dot bikini!!! Jordy had fun singing that song this summer.

My baby is 3!!!

Kacie turned 3 in July. We had a big gathering at the lake. She wanted a Care Bear theme. So, Care Bear it was. She got tuckered out by mid afternoon and took a little snooze in the swing. How precious!

This was a hot summer day at the lake. We had to drag the girls out of the water to attend Great Grandma Jean and Great Grandpa Milt's 50th wedding anniversary.

Looks Like Trouble

Yep, those are Q-Tips in her ears. For about a month straight, if we would turn our backs on Kacie, that is what we would find. Fortunately, she does not do that any more. (She must of jabbed one in a little too far)!

Preschool Party

I helped out at Jordy's preschool Christmas Party. One of the projects was to make reindeer food for Rudolph. It was hard for her to have to wait and save it for the night before Christmas when we sprinkled it in the snow for Rudolph to eat. It must have been good because he ate every last piece!

Winter Fun

The girls had fun playing with Kieran this winter.




They also enjoyed playing outside with our
neighbors, Alex and Camille!
