Baby Showers to Welcome our new Babe!!

I was so blessed with baby showers to help care for the new addition to our family. In this picture, Some of my church friends showered me with wonderful gifts to prepare us for parenting an infant again.

Our kids attended a new school for the 2009-2010 school year. They were excited to start a new adventure and to dispose of the school-uniform rule of their previous school.

Smiles for the First Day of School

To celebrate the first day of school, Emilie 2nd grade and Monte 4th grade, I made home-made cinnamon rolls. These turned out to be huge and quite tasty. I think we have started a fun family tradition, we always love the traditions that include yummy treats!!
