A perfect time

to start a new hobby! McKaden is obessed with Playdough and can play with it for long stretches of time - in fact, she has played with it for entire basketball games! She also loves to sit and color, paint and work on her letters - this came at the perfect time as I had to have emergency surgery and need her to be quiet and still.

Christmas with the Mouse

Disneyland was all decorated for Christmas! So beautiful!
This as at the end of the night when she was "all done Disneyland"

We are back from our time in So. Cal and we loved it! McKaden, as usual, was a realy trooper. We had a great time with the basketball team and did well in the tournmament.
We had a blast at Disneyland and plan on going back soon. McKaden loved it and is still talking about it. Our favorite line for the day was after going on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride ... she said "all done Disneyland" and fell asleep in her stroller. I will let the pictures do the talking.

We wish you a Merry Christmas

We wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! We had a really fun Christmas and I still feel like we are trying to recover. Mac loved opening her gifts on Christmas Day and seemed to get the whole Christmas spirit. She is able to sing - well, most of the words - a lot of Christmas songs and often requests to sing them. I have a feeling we will be singing them for a long time. She is really cute when she looks at the nativity scene we have - she can quote a Christmas book that we have about the baby Jesus. It is SO cute! We send you our very best!
