We spent Thanksgiving with Brad's family in Arkansas. Sawyer and Sutton's great grandmom, Arlene came all the way from Missouri to be with us too! Sawyer played non-stop and even tried a little cooking. Carole (grandmom) found an apron that she wore when she was a little kid and Sawyer of course had to wear it so she could make us some yummy muffins for breakfast.
We spent Christmas in New Mexico with my family. Christmas has always been such a special time but with kids it just brings back so many memories of how you felt on Christmas Eve and waking up Christmas morning. Sawyer was even excited about Santa Claus this year and would even take a picture with him. Sutton of course is so little she has no clue what is going on but she sure is dressed in some cute Christmas outfits!
We spent New Years in Ruidoso, New Mexico. The snow was beautiful and we had a blast playing in it and building the girl's first snow man!
We moved into our new house early April, and said good bye to yellow house! It has been so nice having SPACE and places to put things like toys, clothes, hair bows, toys, clothes, hair bows, toys, clothes and more hair bows!
Matthew, Nana (Vickie), and Pa (Barry), came to our house for Easter. I can't tell you how many times we had to "hide" eggs for little Sawyer. Everyone was so sweet and took a turn. We had a great time as a family building new memories in our new house!
June 23, 2010 Sawyer got her first hair cut! She wasn't very excited about it at all, BUT after some bribing with chocolate (great parenting skills, I know) she stood there like a big girl and did really well. Thanks Brooke!
Last day of CDO (Children's Day Out). Sawyer had a great year and made lots of really sweet friends. Ms Tootie and Ms LeeAnn are the best! Sawyer knows all her colors, shapes, letters, numbers, how to wait patiently, songs, soooo much! Thank you ladies for being so good to my little June Bug. Can't believe next year is Preschool.
It really took everything I had to sign up Sawyer for her first dance class. I really want to raise athletes but I got to thinking, baseball and football players take ballet so this wouldn't hurt her too bad, hahaha! It was a July session and she took ballet, tap and tumbling with two of her friends Kenedi and Anastyn. She really did like it and was rather pretty graceful if I must say so myself! The best part, was getting her dressed, she looked precious. And of course, little sister, Sutton was there to cheer her on!
