A special trip

We're on our way!

Starting with an easy ride

Checking out the next ride

Decided to give it a try

Must be time to lift our arms up

Buckled in and ready to go!

Loving it!

I give that ride 2 thumbs up!

Taking a break

Swimming with Dad

All of us in the pool

Ready for bed after a long day

Josie and Dad at the Minnesota Zoo

They like to move it, move it

Catching a ride

Smile!

What a difference three years makes!

I was so excited to find this shirt in a bigger size. Check out how much she's changed!

And how much she's stayed the same.

Holiday Cookies

Apparently we haven't talked enough about Valentine's Day. As we were making heart cut-out cookies yesterday Josie was singing Jingle Bells. Then when I asked her what kind of cookies we were making she kept calling them holiday cookies. And when she got some Valentine stickers in the mail from Great Grandma and Grandpa she called them holiday stickers. At least I have a couple of weeks to help her figure this out!

Splish Splash

This girl loves the water! Think she has enough bath toys?

Its SNOW fun to live in Minnesota

We've been enjoying the *warmer* weather. And Josie loves to be "thrown into the snow."

And a few attempts at a family photo. You'll have to settle for just 2 of the 3 of us.

Don't get mad!

Brent and I were busy painting the stairwell and upstairs hallway so we decided to let Josie watch TV in our bedroom. I heard a curious giggle coming from our room so I decided to check in on Josie. As I opened the door she said "Don't get mad momma. Get glad!". Apparently she saw this Glad commercial and thought it was the funniest thing ever. Will she be asking Santa for sandwich bags next year????

Josie's new sport?

So the skates were 2 sizes too big, she had sore ankles afterwards and our dreams of a women's hockey scholarship to the U of M have been put on hold, but Josie had a great time skating with her new friend Leah.

A HUGE thank you to Leah for helping Josie! I hope your back wasn't too sore!
