Birthday's

This dog wandered into our yard and Katie loved it. She fed it and

put a blanket in a box for it and played ball with it.

Does she need a dog or what!

Our 15 year old! He had a donut cake because he doesn't like cake.

One year till he will be driving!!!!!!!

Katie had a fun Hello Kitty birthday party. She had a few

friends over and played games and made a little scrap book.

This is Katies pretty new purple dress!!!:)

Hi everyone, well, I finally figured out what was wrong with our computer so we can upload pictures to the blog. Hope you had a great Christmas. We had a fun time, our last Christmas in Milwaukee. YEA!!!!!!!

Christmas Fun

Here is a picture of Katie at her preschool Christmas party. She is sitting by her best friend, Grahm, the little boy in the glasses. I wanted her to make some girl friends so she could be a little more girly but of coarse her best friend is a boy and they play super heros all day. Katie brought cookies to share with everyone and Grahm looked at his cookie and asked Katie if she brought it and she said yes with a big smile and he said, "Ew, I don't like your cookies" and she almost started to cry. Now is that future husband material or what.

We went to see Santa and the line was an hour wait. So we were waiting for a while and I asked Katie if she was sure she wanted to see Santa and she shook her head. She was scared and said lets just put the list in my shoe or the mail. (She had her list in her purse.) So I took her up to stand by the fence to get her picture taken and she wouldn't even stand by it. I had to force her to sit by me while we took her picture. At least we didn't waste an hour in line.

McKay and Katie in their Christmas finery. The other day, they were playing and Katie threw something at McKay and it went in his eye and he was crying and I said you can't throw things at people it will make them blind. And she said, "Mom it's ok, we can just get some mud and rub it on his eyes and wash it off and he can see again." I guess all those lessons are sinking in.

Hope you all have a great Christmas!
