Making Memories with Gpa Steve

On one of the few warmer (by warmer I mean above 20 degrees) January afternoons, we made our way out Grandpa Steve and Grandma Paula's house to go sledding. This was Becca's first sledding experience and she had a blast. She outlasted the adults and wanted to stay out longer, but since we're the mom and dad...we over-ruled!


Grandpa had plowed a path down the small hill! What a ride!


Of course the walk back up is the hard part!


Very surprised when she asked to go by herself! Not sure why...cause she's got a No Fear policy of her very own.


Daddy didn't want to miss out on the fun.


This was my favorite part! Becca's look of...."we're going to far!" and Tim's "wahoooooooooo!"


And of course, finishing off with some hot chocolate with Grandma Paula!


mmm mmm good!

Long time I know!

Wow! So I have been slacking big time in keeping this blog up to date! You can see what has kept me so busy here . Its all about making my house my home!

But that blog won't show much of Becca! Here is a quick picture recap of the last 2 months! I will have more pics in a couple of days to post!

Making Christmas cooking with Gamma. Becca insisted that she had to remain in her jammies to do this. I was ok with that. Heck....wish I couldn't gotten away with it! Make note Gamma...next year, we're doing this in our jammies!



We had an elf that made his way into our home this Christmas season. He is a magic elf. When we went to sleep at night or left the house, his magic would work and he would play or...more often than not, get into mischief! He was found climbing our tree when we came home from church, he dumped out Becca's piggy bank and spelled her name with the change, he played hopscotch on paper plates. We came home to find him watching a new movie in Becca's room when she was having a sleep over at Gamma and Gampa's! This silly elf! His magic stopped working on Christmas eve when he went back to the North Pole to be with Santa! We sure hope to have him back next year!



Christmas was fun for Becca this year. Even more so than last year, she was all pumped up and excited about it all. She got a lot of things for her kitchen in the playroom! She loves playing restaurant.


Becca was surprised with a colorful bouquet of daisies from her Daddy in January! He came home with them and she was so excited. They were " just because I love you" flowers he said! I love that!
