Chapter 9 - Daddy/Daughter Ball

Liam's preschool has the Daddy/Daughter Ball every year and luckily it just wasn't for children attending the school. Rory was very excited about this special night with her daddy. From shopping for the perfect gown to Daddy picking her up curbside in her "chariot", Rory thoroughly enjoyed her special evening with Daddy.








We are so proud of our pretty princess Rory and she is so very lucky to have a daddy that wants to do fun things with her!

Chapter 8 - Circus Fun

The Spanish Circus came to town and so Liam, Rory and Mommy were lucky to have such a great Daddy to let us go while he took care of Autumn. Our dentist gave us free tickets for having cavity-free mouths!

The elephant ride was our favorite part, but we also really enjoyed the acrobats on the trapeze, the tiger-tamers and the funny clowns! Thank-you Dr. Gifford for a fun night!

Chapter 7 - Yah, so I lied!

I sat down mid-February to do a post for this year and to tell you all how sorry I was for not following through on my commitment and guess what, I couldn't even follow through with that entry! So, as much as I really want to write every week, maybe my goal was a little too big...lets aim for every month (and I have 2 months to make up for now!) Man I suck!

So back-tracking is hard! Well, let's start with January. For Christmas, Barb and Harrison got us a family pass to the Dinosaur Museum, so needless to say we went and had a great time. We've been there many times, but for some reason this time was a lot more fun! Autumn is at a very curious age and really, really enjoyed the displays. Rory and Liam enjoy the "erosion table" and the "sand pit" and usually race to get to those but Autumn's excitement managed to draw them in and we actually spent close to 2 hours wandering around and talking about, can you imagine, DINOSAURS!



Autumn pointed at absolutely everything!










She didn't seem to care about the gigantic mouth about to eat her!

Autumn just so interested in everything!











Liam has become quite the social butterfly when we go any where and there's other little boys. The poor little guy only has the neighborhood girls to play with!
