Josie is big!

 

Apparently our little sweetie just skipped over all those toddler years and went straight from a baby to a little lady.  She thinks she is just as big as her brothers and loves to let everyone know she is "older".

Tyler skiing.

Tyler got to ski thru the trees this year.  He loved that trail. 

Actually he loves everything there is to love about skiing. 

Wesley skiing.  His friend Kendall and her mom are ahead of him. 

Winter Park Vacation

We went to Winter Park Co this year.  We had a great trip.  We all skied, went snow mobiling and tubing.    Eric took a fall and hurt his arm on the last run of the first day but he managed to have some fun anyway.  Josie stayed at home with a friend.  Skiing and being in the cold is just not too much fun for a two year old.  She had a great time with our friend Katie.  I’m sure next year she will be there trying keep up with her brothers.

Eric with his friend Kendell.  He was quite a trooper. 

Eric and Kendell played together a lot.  Her family goes to the same park as us each year so this year we just went and stayed together.

Tyler got to try out a snow mobile by himself.  He was pretty excited. 

Josie's new look

This is pretty much how Josie looks any time we are at the farm.  We got 4 "kittens" for the farm and she drags them around everywhere she goes. I saw a sign up for free kittens and called to say we wanted them.  When I met the guy, this is what he had.  I call those cats but I guess whatever.  I'm sure with all the "lovin" they get the older the better.   She defiantly LOVES them all.  If I didn't know better I would think that cat was permanently attached to her.

"Louie" came to the game today.

Louie is quite the stud!!  Can anyone guess who Louie is?

Lousie even gives hugs the babies like any good lion should.

Josie's Gotcha Day

I can’t believe that one year ago today Josie was placed in our arms to forever join our family. In some ways it seems like yesterday but yet I can't even remember what it was like before our family had her. She is such a sweet little girl. As soon as I mentioned to them that it would soon be her "gotcha day" they have been so excited. We have had pink heart shaped pancakes for breakfast and have a family night planned. Valentine’s Day won't ever be just another card holiday. It is much more than that in our family
