McCall Trip Jan. 2010















We went to McCall, Idaho this last weekend with four of my co-workers and their families. We rented a big house and all bunked up together...it was sooooo much fun!!! We went to fireworks, a parade, visited a whole bunch of ice sculptures, ate some elephant ears, most people rode snowmobilies and enjoyed some great late night games and awesome meals! Then we enjoyed Cheesecake Factory with some great friends! It was a great weekend and we totally hope to go again!!

Playin in her car...ok so really all she does is sit in it and watch tv but she stopped to smile at me for a brief second :) She sure thinks she's big in it!


Playing under the kitchen chairs...this has always been a fun pastime for her to climb over the rungs and get into the middle!


Time to update the ol' blog...well our house is finally back to normal pretty much from Christmas :) Sam is thoroughly loving her two big items she got for Christmas from her grandparents!! She thinks she's pretty big these days! She has learned to climb up on her chair toy my parents got her to get anything that's sitting on the piano! And apparently it's pretty cool to just sit in her little car and watch tv :) Her hair is finally growing and goes into piggys pretty well now! Yay!! And she has recently started saying all gone...well it's more of a "g-gone" but she does the hand motions with it and everything, it's pretty cute! She still isn't walking but will hold onto your finger and wobble all over...so I'm still thinking it'll be a bit but that's ok with me ;)

Sam liked the smell of the candle so well she tried to eat it!


These are a few pics from our Christmas festivities while we were up in Spokane. It was so nice to be home over the holidays and get to celebrate with our families! It was a short trip as usual but was well worth the drive! Samantha got tons of toys and had a blast! I think it all wore her out pretty well though 'cause she slept almost the whole drive home :) She is such a huge blessing in our lives and we thank God for her everyday! Hope everyone was able to have as wonderful of Christmas as we did!

Mom I'm stuck under the chair...




Somehow I got in here and can't get out Mom!!



Hmmm...maybe I'll climb over the bar since crawling under would be too easy...

The quiet times of a 1 year old!




I was simply preparing dinner the other day and Sam was just 2 feet behind me, but after a while of not hearing from her I turned around and this is what I found...
