We had a wonderful dinner there. Thank you Nana and Pop pop!!!

Uncle Chris, Aunt Keri, Matthew and Emma

Emma, Aunt Keri and I. I was really interested in what was in that basket.
Aunt Ginny got Alyssa and I a basket filled with Christmas stuff. Christmas coloring books with crayons, books, candy, stuffed animals and so much more. Thank you Aunt Ginny!!! We love you!!!

Nana and Pop pop have the coolest horse, we rock it to town.

This is my family. It was amazing that we got a family picture all together. I was so busy running around with my cousins that I didnt have time for any pictures. Mom says she wishes she was able to get more pictures of the family but it was crazy there like always. My cousins and I are always playing. No time for pictures, I try to tell mom.

Daddy and Alyssa

Alyssa likes listening to Great Nana Buss sing to her. It is relaxing!!!
She has a great voice!!!
It is almost over.... meaning it is getting late and mom changed my clothes to PJ's. It is getting late but I still have a full battery!!!

We are very thankful for everything, and that everyone is doing well and staying healthy.

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!!

We love you!

Thanksgiving Daddy's parents

First we went to daddy's parents house for Thanksgiving. Mommy forgot to take some pictures but she did catch me digging in the bowl of nuts. OOPS!!!Landen stole all the M&M's from the nut bowl!!!

Smokin' a Turkey!!!

Here's Daddy smoking two turkeys for thanksgiving. He started the smoker at 1 in the morning. It was raining and all!!!

It was the best turkey I have ever had. It was so juicy!!! We took one up to daddy's parents and the other to mommy's parents.

Alyssa

Alyssa loves getting kisses from mommy!

Mommy got Alyssa.

She's getting so big!

Alyssa does not like tummy time so much!

Turkey making FUN!

Today Emma came over and we made turkeys for Thanksgiving Day!

Emma is finger painting her feathers for the turkey.

Here I am carefully painting my feathers, too. We had four different colors of paint.

NOt for long was I careful, it was not only finger paint but some what body/tray paint!

Time for a bath!!!

Here is Emma's finished turkey! It looks great!

And here is mine! That was alot of fun, mom!

Emma loves holding Alyssa.

I love it when Cousin Emma comes over to play with me.

My Weekend

My Weekend

Today I was just working at my desk. I like to do art work here with mommy.

Here dad was showing me how to run the Towvany business. Papers that needed to be filled out. I can do that!

Here I was being silly. Playing with the box.

Here is Alyssa sucking her thumb.

Alyssa

Alyssa is so cute. She is starting to laugh and smile all the time.

Pop Pop's Bike Ride

Tour de Tucson 2008

Pop Pop rode in the "Tour de Tucson" 109 miles.
We were very proud of him!!!

All of the bikers are getting ready at the start line. Thousands of them.

They had to carry their bikes through the sandy washes.



MOre walking, I thought Pop pop said this was a "bike" ride!



Rest stop

The finish line... he was happy to see that!!! We are very proud of Pop pop completing his race. He even completed it a half hour earlier than last years time, way to go!!! Some day I look forward to joining Pop pop in his races but in the kiddies bike ride.

Fountain Hills Fall Festival

Fountain Hills Fall Festival

Today we all went to the fall festival in Fountain Hills. Nana, Pop pop, Aunt Keri, Matt and Emma came too. It was alot of fun. Alyssa didn't make it in our picture since she was sound to sleep.

Daddy let me sit on the wall with him. It was fun...trying to balance. Mom was nervous but dad had me.

Matthew wanted a picture with us too.

Matthew is silly and always makes me laugh!

Emma and Alyssa are alike, both sleeping.

I was getting a little tired of sitting in the stroller so Pop took me for a while. It was cool, we were looking at a cool golf cart. I really wanted to drive the thing!!! But I guess that wasn't going to happen!

So instead Pop took me over to the ice cream booth and I got a popicle. This was actually my first popicle. I am use to otter pops. They are much cleaner, mom says.

This is funny, everyone is watching me eat this thing.

Mom said, "What a mess!!!" But is was GOOD, thanks Pop pop!!!!

The guys!!! Me, Daddy, Matthew and Pop pop!

Gilbert Days Parade

Today we went to the Gilbert Days Parade. Aunt Keri, Matthew and Emma meet us there. Aunt Keri got us a great spot on the road no one in front of us.

Matthew thought he was the king of the world! I thought he was so funny!

We both were playing in the rocks and sliding down the hill. Mom was wondering why she gave me a bath this morning. I was thinking the same thing! It kept us busy while waiting for the parade to start.

Alyssa was all cozy in her car seat, sleeping.... like always!

Here's the crew!

Emma got a flower from someone in the parade. Aunt Keri put it in her hair...Emma wasn't to sure about that.

Dad and I are watching people go by in the parade. I like the bands...I danced as they past us.

Mom and Alyssa also enjoyed the parade. It was alot of fun but I will say it was tooooo LONG!!! I was falling asleep towards the end of it, and before you knew it, in the car I was out!
