Can I Get Some Ketchup With That?

Tell me again why we buy kids toys? As I stated in the earlier post David and I purchased a few new toys for Isaac and he did great for the first two days. Then the next morning he played with his toys for all of about five minutes and then made the bee line straight to the recycle pile. So much for the toys, but it made for some funny shots. At least now I know he's getting plenty of fibre in his diet:)

Isaac Meets Santa....

We took a little shopping trip this last Saturday, and decided to get Isaac some early Christmas presents. I LOVE toy stores! Although most of what I wanted to get him were a little over his age range. Isaac just wanted to eat all the card board boxes and tags. While there we decided to introduce Isaac to Santa, it was the cutest thing:) I thought for sure he would freak out, but he loved him. He was smiling and laughing there were sooo many cute shots to choose from, but I just couldn't resist this one. I LOVE CHRISTMAS!

FOR NANNY.......

It's hard to believe she's really gone. I recieved the call last night that my grandmother had passed away. To know her was to love her, everyone who knew her was a better person for it. She had the amazing capability to see people for who they truly were and would shower you with hugs and kisses the minute you walked through her door.

Though it was hard to leave family and friends in Utah I was blessed to spend this last year with her in washington. I will miss our lunch dates to Taco Bell (her favorite) and getting our nails done. Listening to her stories about her life and how she wished her body could've lasted as long as her mind. She did tell me that "the good angels could have their wings, this little rebel was going to walk everywhere!" (thats our Nan) The piece of advice I will take with me is "be happy Terra Marie, "be happy" life is too short for grudges or anger." Thanks to her I've had a lot of "Happy" and I know there's more to come.

I also want tell my mother how much I appreciate her love and example. From daughter to mother you gave her the very best!
