Happy Birthday Sienna!!

 

 

 

 

Can you believe it's been a year already since this little darling has entered our lives.. She brings such to us, and has been such a good baby.. but now she's a big girl! We've had a lot of firsts.. first camping trip, first Halloween, Christmas, Easter.. First time for all sorts of yummy food, first smile, laugh, roll, crawl, step, giggle...etc. Happy birthday baby girl! If you'd like to see a closer view of any picture, or collage.. just double click on the photo. Thank you for peeking in to our site, and thank you for being a part of all our lives!

Look WHOO's Turning 1

 

 

 

What a big day for our little girl.. As I am putting these out for you to see, at around this time (7 pm ) a year ago, Sienna was born! What a day to remember. She has been such a blessing to our family.. She had a great FIRST birthday, surround by some family and friends. It was a great time had by all. We enjoyed the cake and cupcakes very much, had a pinata, and opened some presents.. Sienna even got her first battery operated jeep, which a few people chipped in for (a gift that last for many years!) Then the kids went home with some cotton candy, and helium balloons. And another big event for us.. Sienna started walked yesterday, for the first time. Although it only happens when she chooses to. So exciting to see her first steps.. And so happy I got it on video on Grant's phone. I've been waiting for this moment for a while now!
Better run.. Hope you enjoy the pictures!

Banff / Beach

 

 

 

 

Just a few pictures to post.. Grant and I had a great weekend Get Away in Banff, for a friend's wedding. The kids got 2 sleepovers in Red Deer with their Grandparents.. and they loved it! And while my brother came for a visit in Lac La Biche, we spent a morning at the beach..

Fun at the Fair

 

 

 

 

There were MANY different activities the kids could do at the County Fair. Meagan loved going on the pony ride.. where as Caleb was a little scared. They did crafts, watched a Magician, went to a petting zoo, and got their face painted..

The kids have been busy collecting and making crafts for the fair, which they do every year.. This year Meagan entered 15 crafts, and won $57 in prize money (1st place ribbon $5, 2nd place, $3, 3rd place $2.) Caleb entered 6 crafts, and won $12. They were so excited... and loved seeing their crafts displayed with the others. In the one photo, you can see Meagans' pink onesie, Fall wreath, and Family garden stone (bottom left) that she made. This year, I also went into all the elementary school classrooms to talk about this event, as there were not many kids that would enter projects.. This year the tables were full!

Fun on rides

 

 

 

 

Since there was a big downpour the evening we spent at the Stampede, the kids didn't get to go on any rides, so while Sienna had a nap in the van with Grant driving around, I took the kids on some rides.. They had fun, and would of liked to have gone on every ride!!
