Look who turned 2....

Last weekend was fun getting to go to Mulvane and celebrate Bugs 2nd Birthday. We decided to bring L.T. and surprise Katie for her birthday. She loves L.T. and L.T. loves her. Again, I uploaded pictures out of order, oh well, that's the way it goes.....

Below is a stained glass project that I am working on at Bearden's Stained Glass in Wichita. I have learned a lot, and have one class left. The project below still needed more glass cut, but I am working on soddering it now. Sure is a lot of fun. Someday soon, I hope to go out and play with Peggy in her studio and enjoy our craft together. This project is suppose to resemble the buttes in the Gyp Hills area. I changed the pattern significantly and added a pond also. I'll be going to Elmo Live with the kids on sunday, Bruce has knee surgery on monday, and then I'll be in Mulvane the rest of the week. Should be another busy one - sure glad I retired! HA! I am so thankful that I am available!!!

Jason and Eric had a few moments to chat - we are so excited Jason will be marrying Dolly very soon!! It's about time, Stretch.....

Papa spent some time with grandson, Konnor, he is such a little doll!!

Katie feeding her new stuffed animal, L.T. She has a great imagination....

She sure loves her babies too! They will be well fed from now on!

L.T. sniffing out a rabbit in the back yard! He began to pull the wood out of the wood pile to get to the poor terrified bunny, but we talked him into quitting.

Katie enjoying the backyard before the party!!

Watching L.T. and Jasmine - they look so funny together!! What a great day!!

The Birthday Bash~es

Aren't birthdays fun?? I still enjoy watching the anticipation of eating that first bite of cake and wondering whats in those beautifully wrapped presents. In K-Baby's case, the first taste of her cake was MAGNIFIQUE, in my mother's words. She loved the frosting, the cake, and the icing. I have never seen a child totally consume everything as is illustrated in one of the pictures below. She loved her presents, babies, toys, and of course the wrapping paper itself. She knew she was the star of the show!! Shawn's birthday was downplayed somewhat after watching DeeDee's birthday showcase, but I think he enjoyed his german chocolate cake and his little trailer as well. It's the first time hes been back since March so he is very excited to be back to this part of the country.

I must admit, I was a little shocked at K-Sis' sense of fashion, but somehow she makes it work. From the pink cowgirl boots to the flowing princess dress and accented by her pink and black coat and her hair showcased a pretty princess hairband. Am I right or what?

K-Man and I took time for a little photoshoot.

KMan was a regular Daniel Boone with his Daisy BB gun. Takes after Daddy.

KGirl driving the john deere tractor and trailer. Needs to work on reverse though.

The star of the day - The Birthday Girl K-Baby

Opening one of her presents with help from Dad.

Shawn enjoying his BDay too!. Where's the toys???

I loved the Dora cake!, but almost couldn't find it at Dillon's. What a lot of drama looking for it!

KBaby knew it was her DAY! What a treat getting to share in that day!! :)

Won't be long now, and everyone will be here for the holidays. I always look forward to this time of year. We are always so busy but this is the time for us to remember our Lord and Savior. His birth was such a gift!
