snow

We got a lot of snow for Chirstmas this year. So far we are up to 15.7 inches of snow and it is still going. The drift in our front window and by door is taller than me, it is at least 6 feet and climbing.

We had a very nice relaxing Christmas. My dad was able do be with us this year and it was nice. It snowed all day and night.

Halloween 09

We had fun trick or treating. Cassandra was a leopard.

Ballet/tap

So tonight Cassandra went to her first Ballet/Tap class. She loved it and looked so cute doing it. I think she is going to be good at it. I am so proud of her.

Labor Day

On Labor Day we went to the Sioux Falls Zoo.

Partys

On September 5th we had two birthday parties that we went to. Elijah's 4th (dinasaur party)and Ashlyn's 3rd (park party). We had a long and fun day.

School Started

Well its that time of year again when school starts. So Cassandra started her second year of preschool on Monday. She loved it. She goes Monday-Thursday from 9-11:30. She has the same teacher that she had last year so she was very happy.

Air National Guard Tour

With our Moms Club we did a Air National Guard Tour on the base, it was the best tour we have ever done. We got to see there equipment that they wear while flying. Then we got to go where they do there practicing for flying (so the flight simulator). The kids got to sit in it. Then we all went outside and got to watch them take off in there planes. It was so cool, we were right on the runway close to them. When they took off it was really loud (so the kids plugged ears). But when they flow past (one at a time, four of them) each one waved at us one pilot waved with his plane and that was cool. Then we got to go to there fire station and see the fire trucks. Last we got to go in the hanger and see the planes that was getting fixed.

updates from summer

Well lets see in July my Dad, Dasha and Katelyn came out for 2 weeks to visit us. We played a lot of games on the Wii and played outside on our new swing set. We put up our little swimming pool so they swam a lot. We all went to the Sioux Falls Air Show and had a blast watching the planes. Cassandra and Shawn had to walk back to the car and watch from there because she got scarred from the F22 Raptor (it was to loud). But that was my ultimate favorite plane to watch. The other coolest thing was the Blue Angels, they where awesome.
