Fun Day

We had a great weekend. Saturday we went down to Winterfest at the BOK. Although it was 70 degrees they were ice skating. It was cute to watch Lina and she was really excited to try. Once she got out there though, she was just too scared. Lance took her around twice and she was done. So we headed over to Bass Pro to see Santa. They have a really pretty set up and a good Santa. Their picture is free too, but it was very poor quality, so if you go take your own camera. Lance was able to snap some good shots with our camera. Today we went to church, then picked up some things for fix-ups here at the house. We got our Christmas lights finished. Its not a grand display, but its something. It is now time to fall fast asleep. I have an army of preschoolers coming for playgroup in the morning!

Cassidy was not too impressed with Santa. Lina was just fine with him this year. She told him right off that she wanted race cars, little ones and big ones. Then when she was done she remembered that she forgot to tell him she wanted a tambourine. Where she comes up with this stuff, I don't know. By the way grandparents, she is getting a tambourine from us.

Daddy's Home!

This is how I found Cassidy the other night. She thinks she's big, crawling up in Lina's bed and getting her cup to drink like a big girl. Of course she spilled it all over herself.

We had a great Thanksgiving at our friends house. Don and Angela Raleigh. Thanks for having us guys, we are so blessed by you and your family!

This is a video of what Cassidy does when Daddy comes home. She loves him.

Happy Birthday Cassidy

Well, today Cassidy turned 1. It's hard to believe. This year has flown by. I am just going to post several pictures and videos. She had a great day. We just stayed at home and enjoyed our time. Then when Lance got home we let her open some presents and then we did the cake. She had a great time with the cake. She didn't get too rowdy with it, but she is sure going to like chocolate!

Wednesday with words

I know the grandparents are wishing I was blogging more, so here is a little update. We've had a good week, it started rocky. Lance had suprised me with tickets to the musical "Little House on the Prairie". He was super excited for me and I had gone and picked out a cute outfit, we made reservations at some fancy restraunt and then it started going downhill. Saturday night I was up with the "runs" for the first portion of the night, then woke up with a miagraine. We missed Sunday School, but made it to church, it just kept getting worse. I was not going to waste the $110 and not see it, so we headed to Tulsa, the ride there was awful. I got in the show and thought I was going to have to leave several times. We made it through though and it was a great show. I wish I had felt better. Thank you baby for the effort!

Also, my Mom has her lumpectomy tomorrow. So please be in prayer for her. It is supposed to be "no big deal" kind of surgery, and that is what we are hoping for.

Here is another video of the girls playing the other day.

This week we started our Sign and Sing class with Cassidy. She seemed to like it. Lina sat in too this week and she has really picked up on the sign language.She keeps wanting to learn more of them. Cassidy doesn't seem to look at me long enough to show her the signs, but maybe she'll learn something along the way. Lina has been learning the sounds letters make at school and seems to really grasp it. She says words that start with the letter she is sounding out. Smartie.

Good News, Bad News

Well, the good news is, thanks to a mammogram, they found the cancerous cells in my Mom early. So early that they were calling it precancer. The bad news is my sweet Momma is still going to have to have surgery and 7 weeks of radiation. So, I'm asking my prayer warriors to lift her and the family up. I think everyone feels pretty good about it. Hopefully the treatments will be effective without too many bad side effects. The surgery is in a couple of weeks, then radiation will begin in December probably.

On a funnier note, here is a video of the girls. The drama queen couldn't find her green lipstick (apple chapstick). Her faces never cease to crack me up.

Thursday

Cassidy LOVES her Daddio!

We went to a birthday party Sat. It was a beautiful day and they had a jumper. Lina had a great time.

Lance showing his skills. LOL!

Well, I havn't really blogged much the past few weeks, we've been either sick or really busy. We got sick again this week, but not too bad. Just some runny noses. Lina had fever one day and sore throat. She woke me up at 5 a.m. and said her mouth was hurting way in the back. I already had a sore throat, so I knew exactly what she meant. She was a little puney on Tues. but has been fine since. Me and Cass have runny noses. Anyway, Lina is at school today and we got some shopping done. I found a brand new pair of really cute pj's at Goodwill for 1.99! Yesterday I picked up 2 pair of pj's at Wal-mart for 1.50 each. They were Halloween, but hey, they work.

We are staying really busy when we're able. There are a million birthdays this Fall and the holidays. So, if you don't hear from me as much that's why. I'm also trying to catch our albums up before the end of the year, so I'm trying to get some scrapbooking done too. Hope everyone has a great weekend.
