Dex is 4!!


I can't believe my baby is 4!!
 
We had two celebrations! He requested that we go to the Monster Jam again and he went with his best buddy Cairo and ofcourse the parents went along as well. They had so much fun!!  Then we celebrated his birthday in Magrath at my parent's house! 
 

 
 
 
We started the day off getting ready for Ashylla's baby shower and it turned out so cute!! We had a great turn out!! The decorations turned out so cute and it was a lot of fun!! We did a football themed baby shower and did super bowl food!! It was awesome!! (I do have pictures I just can't find my camera anywhere...)

 As soon as the shower was over we headed over to my mom and dad's for Chinese and Dex's party. We ordered a cake from Sobey's which turned out to dye all of our mouth's blue and it definitely wasn't worth what we paid for it so lesson learned I will continue on making their cakes every year from now on. It was a great party though!! Dex got spoiled rotten and loved being the center of attention!!
 

 
 

 On February 15, 2010 my life was changed forever. I still remember it like yesterday . Dex was born with energy. I think that's why he was 3 1/2 weeks early he couldn't wait to get here. He has been a mover and a shaker since the moment he was born. He has made our lives so much fun and he challenges Nick and I on a regular basis. Because of him I have learnt a great deal of patience over the past 4 years and have also developed a deep love for this little Momma's Boy!! He is such a loving child and I am so grateful for him and all his craziness!!

Winter


I love Decemeber!! Christmas is my favorite time of year!! There is always so much going on!

We spent Christmas in Wetaskiwin!! It was Taylor's last Christmas before he left on his mission. They boys got spoiled rotten like always. Nick thinks I spoil them too much and he's probably right. We had a great time spending time with Nick's family. Then we headed down south to spend New Years with my family.
 


 I love spending time with my family!! New Years was a blast we got the kids a pinada and had fun activities for them to do until bedtime and then the adults got to relax and play games. And anyone that knows my family knows that it's always a good time when we all get together! The Christmas Holidays went by way too fast like always so we headed home. 

 

January is pretty much a blur... I started my practicum and had to work full time for 6 weeks. I will write a more detailed post about school though. We did manage to get outside and play in the snow!! There were a few beautiful days in January but now it's back to being freezing cold!

Fall (Only 6 Months late lol!)


Nick and I celebrated our 5th Wedding Anniversary on the 6th of September. I still can't believe we've been married for 5 years it's gone by so fast. I think we're doing pretty good for ourselves. I look forward to spending an eternity with this man!! He is such an amazing husband and father!!                          

 

We also took Dexter golfing for the first time and he had so much fun!! He would like to go golfing everyday!! Here are a few cute pics from the day!!


 We celebrated my 26th birthday on the 3rd of October!! It was a great night!! We ordered in Chinese and had a little party as a family! It was great!! Then we headed down south for thanksgiving and my Mom ofcourse threw me a little party!! My mom still spoils me rotten and I love her to pieces!! While we were down south we got family pictures taken and they turned out great!! I love taking pictures in the fall!! We ended the month off trick or treating with the boys in our neighborhood and they looked so cute!! Dex ofcourse had to be Iron Man and Knox went as a shark. They were so stinking cute! 

 



 
 
 I started November off with a bang. My sisters came up to go to the Dixie Chicks!! There was a big group of us and it was a blast!! I love the dixie chicks!! I even caved and bought a t-shirt!! I love this 3 girls!! They are seriously my best friends!! We always have so much fun when we get together and it's hard to believe that we're all getting so old lol!! Hallie is graduating this year.... That makes me feel really old lol!! Love you girls!!
