Random January

We took January pretty easy after having such a busy Christmas season. All the girls and Ryan ended up being sick in January. Ryan got it the worst. He ended up having pneumonia. He was so tired and weak. It seemed he would get better for a few days and then relapse. On top of that he could a sinus infection. The poor guy just can't seem to get better.
Poor Kate would get so tired during the day. She does not like to nap. One afternoon she snuck a binky out of her room. I told her to take it back to her room. A few minutes later I found her on the stairs asleep. 
 Little Emmy has turned into the happiest babies. She is all smiles. She loves to have a toy and sit and watch you. This morning I was folding laundry and she was happy to play with my measuring tape and watch. 

 She plays so well on the floor with toys. WHen she is tired sometimes she just rolls over and falls asleep right in the middle of all the action. 
 Here she is at almost 6 months. 
 The girls loved the snow we got in January. It has been a very mild winter here. There has only been a few storms with enough snow for a snow man.
They made a pretty great one this day! 
 So happy to get her hands on something new.

 Kate just loves Emmy. I often find her in Emmy's room even when she should not be. Check out the tower kate made to be able to see Emmy. 
It is really starting to hit me that Ryan will be graduating this May. I can't believe he is finally going to be a dentist. Wow what a journey it has been. I am trying to just enjoy my last few month here in Wisconsin. 

Well happy January everyone.

Happy 9 years

This year on our anniversary we went and got pedicures together. Ryan was a very good sport and even enjoyed it I think. I love a good pedicure. 
This was our engagement photo. Crazy how young were were. 
I am so happy that I found Ryan. I can't image life with out him.

It seems as though every year we grow closer together. 
I can't wait to see where the next 9 years take us!

Ice Fishing

I love ice fishing with the family. This year we went to Utah lake and had a great time!
My sister in law Amber, Emmy and I.
 It was such a beautiful day.
 My brothers took good care of us. We even had a tent and a heater. 





 Emmy was such a good baby and even napped on the ice. 
 We caught lots of fish. 





 My brothers.

Crazy Christmas morning

The girls found that Santa had come Christmas morning. The squeals and giggles were so much fun.
Lilly got her crayon marker she had been wanting.
 Emmy was not sure what to think of it all.

Ryan got an atlas of New Mexico so he could start to figure out all our camping and hunting adventures there. 

My cute nephew Easton and his new gun.
 Kate was thrilled with the Leapster Santa got her.
 Lilly also ask for an ironing board so she could be like her mamma. I rarely iron stuff so I am not sure why she wanted on ironing board. 
 Kate and her pillow pet.



 The girls geo kits where they could dig for different minerals. 





Gotta love my brothers!

 We had a fantastic Christmas morning. Later that morning we went to church to hear my mom sing in the choir. It was beautiful! 
That evening was spent with Ryan's family. We had a McAffee family Christmas party. It was so great to see his cousins again. 
Merry Christmas!!!!

Christmas Eve Part 2

After a wonderful evening with Ryan's parents we finished the night with my family. We read the story of Jesus birth. Kate played the part of Mary. Uncle KC was Joseph. Madie and Lilly were angels. Cash was our shepherd and Easton was a king.
