Birthday at the Sacramento Zoo!

Sadie had a great morning with Grandpa, Auntie Ali, Jack and her wonderful friend/cousin Sammy at the zoo!
Here is the VERY NOISY monkey. Sadie and Sammy had to plug their ears. It is quite the experience!
We had a perfect day at the zoo. When I asked Sadie what her favorite thing in the reptile house was, she answered, "the crickets!" Creepy crawlies have never been her favorite. When asked what her favorite animal, she answered,"the elephants!" Then I said, "there were no elephants." Then she said, "oh..then the parrots and the ducks." Love those wings!

Tractor Time~ Kodak moment!

Yummy picnic with Sadies favorites:

Saltine crackers, cheese, salami, apples and grapes, and don't forget the pink lemonade and Pink cupcakes!!

"OH"~ I absolutely love the hand-over-the-mouth excitement Sadie feels when she gets a great present.

Luckily, she got great presents from all her friends, so picture her in this pose with all her gifts!!

Sadie's 4th Birthday!

SADIE GOT A PINK BIKE!!!
CATERPILLAR CAKE~

SADIES~ PINK BUTTERFLY CAKE!

It took Sadie about 5 minutes to blow out her candles ( or so it seemed) it was quite funny!! We are not sure where she was blowing.

Happy Birthday my sweet Sadie Baby!!!

Pinewood Derby #1

Jordan did great this year in the pinewood derby. He is a bear this year and is loved to helping his Dad make and design the car. He was watching the DVD "School House Rock" , the one with the inventors on it, and was asking me what he should invent. I am looking forward to see what he will do with his love for building things!

Out to Dinner!

We went out to eat one afternoon/evening and I had the camera with me so I took a few pictures. All the kids got to have rootbeer and they were all attached to their straws. I thought it was pretty funny. So here they are!

Jordan caught on film!
Eric contemplating the taste of root beer!

Looking out for root beer thieves!

The gang at the booth!

Christmas Moments 2008

Christmas was just great this year! Santa brought Jordan snowboarding boots, legos and a safe. He brought Eric, Heelys, legos and a safe and Sadie got a doll house and polly pockets. That was just the beginning of many wonderful gifts! We had a breakfast of eggs, bacon, sausage. cinnamon rolls and mom's/gramma's famous Danish. After a few hours we ate again at Billy and Ali's up in Auburn. We had two dinners. There is a picture to show the ham and scalloped potatoes as well as the roast with mashed potatoes and gravy. I guess it ain't too bad having picky eaters cause those of us that aren't, get 2 great meals! I hope that everybody saw a happy, warm, loving day as we did!
