Pajama Party

The other night when it was time to get ready for bed, Abby could not find any pajamas. Anna told her she could borrow some of hers.
Bridget had to get into the fun and try on a pair of Anna's pajamas also.They all thought it was very funny.

Anna is Three

Modeling her new dress.


Anna's Birthday was on Saturday, February 20
We had a fun party with Grandma and Grandpa Paulsen,
and Grandma and Grandpa Steed

I spent most of the day making this cake.
Anna seemed to really like it.

Only little girls get this excited about new clothes.

She really likes this dog that sings "BINGO"

All of the girls stood up on chairs and read poems to us. Here is Anna's Poem.

Happy Valentine's and President's Day

We had a fun Valentine dinner together. The girls were so excited that we were using a tablecloth and our best dishes, and we were not having company. We had so much fun being together.

On Presidents day I woke up and to my surprise I had energy and I felt good. The girls and I spent the day cleaning the house, that I have been neglecting for the last three months. It is so nice to have things tidy. Today I don't know where my energy went, so I don't know how long the tidiness will last.

Abby is Six

Happy Birthday Abby!
Today is my sweet Abby's birthday.
She had a party last Saturday at Jungle Jim's.
After the party she had a sleepover at Grandma and Grandpa Paulsen's
They took her shopping.
She got the cute blue outfit in the second picture.
Tonight we will take her out to dinner.
I hope you have a great day darling.

Halloween 09

I did not get any real great pictures of their costumes. Bridget was a pirate, Abby was Dorothy, and Anna was Cinderella. We visited both sets of grandparents. We went trick or treating on their streets. The girls said it was the funnest Halloween ever.

Happy Birthday Bridget

Bridget turned 9 on October 13, We had a family party for her.
It was on a Monday so we played Family Home Evening games.

Snow College Reunion

On October 10, We went to dinner with some of my roommates from Snow College.
It has been more than 13 years since we lived together. It was so much fun to see
Brittany, Keri Wendy and Dana again after all these years. It was nice to see all of their
husbands, and some of the kids too. I felt like I was twenty again.
