Gymnastics

I have been taking Heather and Molly to an open gym at a gymnastics center. They love it obviously. All of the equipment is real competition equipment, they just use mats to make it little kid friendly. Molly is a dare-devil. I am having trouble keeping her from running on the high beam!Molly practicing her Michael Jordan moves.

Heather doing "strong arms", before flipping over the bar.

They let us do this one of the days. The kids pull each other around and try to keep their balance.

Molly on the high beam, ready to jump off the end.

Heather is doing very good. She was able to do a cartwheel on the low beam. The teacher put a pad around it so it was a little wider, and she was landing her cartwheels just like a pro!

Did I say she was a daredevil????

Heathers first day of Preschool

Heathers' first day of preschool was a very rainy day, but she was super excited. The first day was the week of valentines, so she had a party the FIRST day! What a way to start it off!

Nathans Parents came for a visit

Our playgroup took a tour of the Fire Station.

Getting an Engelbob story from Grandma.

We didn't have great weather while they were here, so we didn't do much, but the girls got some really good snuggle time!

Having a tea party.

Sarahs tooth

Sarah lost her tooth, she was so excited!

Sledding and Stockings

When we got to Fort Benton, it was Christmas Afternoon, so Grandma and Grandpa Deck were there as well as the rest of my extended Family that was in town.

Heather playing trains with Grandma Deck

Sarah got Grandma Deck to play Wii with her.

We made cookies for Santa.

They turned out really good.

Reading "The Night Before Christmas" with Grandma Rita

Santa came Christmas night this year, the girls loved it!

We were able to go sledding alot this year, since there was SO much snow! Heather and Sarah learned how to "body sled".

Molly and Grandma

Nathan got really into it this year, we dont usually have enough snow to really enjoy it.

Painting with Grandma and Pheasants

They love painting, and Grandmas always lets them when we come.

Molly is getting so big. It makes me a little sad....

Heather painting a beautiful flower.

Pheasant Season was still open, so Nathan was able to get his shotgun out and have some fun.

Heather gave this one a big hug, they are so pretty!

Sledding

Sledding down the hill in Fort Benton, its the same hill I used to sled down when I was a child.

Christmas in Fort Benton

Right After Church we got a quick picture before they changed. Not the best, but the only one we got will all 7 kids.


The kids were trying to kill time before presents, so we made a Snow Fort and snowman, and the kids had a snowball fight.

The kids and Grandma sang the "Who was in the manger" song before we opened presents.

Baby Kami is not really a baby any more, how sad...

Grandma and Kami

Aunt Jans and the tirp home

The kids went sledding on a snow drift in the back yard, and then Sarah found their cat...

Sarah dressed up in a 60's skirt that was my halloween costume when I was little. She had to dance because it twirls so beautifully!

Heather Dressed up in one of my old Homecoming dresses.
