Rylie and Addisyn's birthday party 2010

We celebrated Rylie and Addi's birthdays this year on July 3, 2010. Rylie will turn 6 on July 20th and Addi turned 4 on June 20th. The girls decided they wanted Tom and Jerry Plates and napkins and a Zebra Pinata so that is what they got :) It was a HOT day but we had a great turn out. Once again they got all they could ever want and more.

Kaysie - 9 months

Kaysie Ryann is 9 months old already. She is still a good baby. Eats good, sleeps good and just started crawling all over the house. She has recently developed quite the little temper though. She is really really happy or very very ticked off! We love her all the same!

Annual trip to Valleyfair

Went to Valleyfair this year on June 29th. Wade and Addisyn joined us this year for the first time. Grandma Mary, Tammy, Mason and Morgan were along for the fun too!! Addisyn and Rylie both liked the mild thing roller coaster and the bumper cars. It was a gorgeous day!

Girls, Girls, Girls

Just some random photos of my growing girls. Rylie has been such a great big sister and is so helpful for me when I need some extra help. Addi just turned 4 and she is so excited for summer because now she can wear "short sleeve pants" Little Miss Kaysie is growing like crazy at 8 1/2 months old already. Bath time is nothing short of entertaining at my house as you can see for yourself!! I love my girls and am so happy they give me so much to be thankful for everyday!

I DID IT!

I finally did it. I ran my first 1/2 marathon yesterday (may 2nd) in the Wells Fargo Lake Minnetonka 1/2 marathon. Its something I've always wanted to do and have had it on my bucket list for years. I have never claimed to be a fast runner so my goal was to "finish" and I did! It took me 2 1/2 hours. There ended up being 6 of us in our group - Me, Kassy, Brooke, Tammi, Kitsie and Jolene. Myself, Kitsie and Jolene were all first timers for the 13.1 mile race but I'm happy to say we all did great!!!

Pre-School Concert 2010

This was Addisyn's first school program and they sang a bumblebee song and the wheels on the bus! She was a little ham out there and did a great job. This was Rylie's last concert at the pre-school and she and her classmates sang three songs but Rylie's favorite was "Take me out to the Ball game". Rylie got her diploma for graduating pre-school and also got an award for "outstanding behavior" I about fell off of my chair.......ha.

Circus trip 2010

Rylie's field trip for Pre-school was at the circus in Sioux Falls again this year. It was a fun day. Rylie said her favorite part was the elephant ride, motorcycles and of course the cotton candy!! Yum!
