Blake has decided to play T-ball this year. He absolutly loves it. His favorite thing to do is to slide to the base. He doesn't quite have the technique down but he sure does make it look fun.
Deanna was baptised a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints on Friday, May 5, 2007. It was a great day and we are so proud of the decision that she has made to be baptised.
We had about three snow storms right after Christmas. While we didn't have a white Christmas we certainly had a white New Year and after. Deanna usually can't jump high enough to touch the clothes line. But now she has no problem.
After Tasha chewed through her Doggy Crate, Georgia decided to follow her example and destroy hers as well. So they were given a Christmas gift of their own and got a new home. Now they get to learn to share. But their home comes with a wall just in case they wouldn't be able to learn to get along in such close quarters.
Deanna has always wanted to be a cheerleader and this was her first go at it. She learned some cheers and a dance routine with the Fountain Fort Carson HS Cheerleaders and got to perform at their last home football game. She had a great time!
Bradly was our lobster, Blake our rhino and Deanna was a pioneer, but the pioneer didn't want to put her costume back on for pictures. We were out so late on Halloween night that I failed to take the pictures then.
Blizzard (bliz'erd): 1 a severe snowstorm characterized by cold temperatures and heavy drifting of snow 2 an overwhelming number or amount
The snow was so thick that Ft. Carson closed it's gates to none-essential personel, meaning that only those who lived on post got to come in. The snow was gone in 2 days.
Our first snow since we arrived in Colorado didn't come until mid October. Blake had thought it was so cool he had to go outside and play in it. Deanna couldn't wait to make a snow angel.
Deanna(2nd grade) and Blake(kindergarden) started school on August 14, 2006. They marched into their classrooms without looking back. They love school and I hope that never changes.
