More Santa

Santa sat by Vince without him knowing and Allie got BJ close enough to Mrs. Claus to get a quick picture. Allie also tried giving Santa a hug with BJ in her arms and BJ did not like it at all.

Santa Pictures

Shyanne enjoyed giving Mrs. Claus a hug!

Santa & Mrs Claus made a special trip to our home. BJ started crying the second he walked through the door. Vince joined right in with a sympathy cry. Nate tried to bribe them both with crackers but BJ would still have nothing to do with him.

Lance School Program

Lance had his school Christmas program it was very crowded & hard to get pictures. This was the only picture that turned out ok.

Piano Recital

Lance & Shyanne had their piano recital. They both did a great job!

Christmas Parade

Lance's scout troop was in the parade

It was cold so we all joined the fun to try and stay warm!

BJ stayed warm she slept through most of it.

Lance Field Trip

We visited the capital building in Carson City
Lance liked the capital building except for the creeky stairs. He was also a little bummed that the governor was not there so he did not get to meet him.

and a museum in Carson all about Nevada things that were in Nevada and things that are still.

BJ's coat

BJ is wearing the same coat Lance did when he was little it's pretty cute on her. Also in these pictures she is being chased around the kitchen by Shyanne and just laughing. BJ loves when her brother, sister or the dog chase her.

Trampoline Fun

BJ loves the trampoline & Justin did a great job of keeping her entertained while daddy worked in the yard & mommy did Grammie's hair.

More Trunk or Treat

BJ & Vince all dressed up! Hats came off though so that they could see!

Hard to crawl when you can't see & your ears are too big!

Lance & Justin looking for a game too play.

Shyanne showing off that smile!

Trunk or Treat

Cousin Vince made one cute giraffe!
Lance was a baseball player for Oakland A's. He wanted to be daddy's favorite player Rickey Henderson but his skin is the wrong color & only daddy has a jersey with his name on it.
Shy was a little fifty's girl in a poodle skirt that aunt Teetee wore when she was young!

BJ dressed as Dumbo which is the same costume both Lance & Shyanne wore at this age. The two of them thought it was pretty cool she would be wearing the same costume they did. Shyanne has decided that is now a tradition so we will have to carry that on with the next baby!

Lance B-day w friends

Lance had his first slumber party! The boys had a great time!

I even made my first attempt at a baseball cake. A little lopsided but not too bad for a first try. Just decorating a cake is new for me.

Lance B-day w family

He got an Oakland A's coat & many more Oakland A's items. You can tell what team he likes!

Still can't get all those candles out in just one breath!
