The patrol was long and hard. Soon Stephen came home and it was the first time for the kids and I to see the boat in. It was a memorable experience. The kids and I were so thrilled to see Stephen.Caspen announced the news of Sampsons death. We made it home and started to get into the routine of things and do something fun as a family so we took our first trip to the Great Wolf Lodge.
We had so much fun at the lodge we cant wait to go back. After are fun we were ready to celebrate my first cousin to get married Stephanie.
After her marriage we found a breeder for Mastiffs and bought our first and our last Masitff. Unfortunalty he didnt work out for our family. He became to protective of me and decided to attack ppl.
Spring was coming to an end fast which meant the end for awanas. Willows first year. She had so much fun and did so well.
With Awanas ending also meant Willows kindergarten year was done and it was time for her trip. My mom came up to pick up Willow and take her on her first state to state train ride to CA without Mom and Dad.
While Willow was enjoying her trip we bought our first big pool. It was so much fun.
The kids started their first sport, soccer. They liked it for a little awhile.
Soon it was time to start school again and Willow was starting first grade.
In September the Puyallup fair opens so we decided to take Willow out of school for a day and enjoy the fair. It was Stephen and the kids first time to do the Puyallup.
Summer changed to fall and it was time for Halloween. We went to a Halloween party for Willows school.
Instead of Celebrating Halloween alone we decided to invite friends over and had a little Halloween celebration with good friends.
October turned into November and before Thanksgiving we celebrated our 7 year anniversary and our first family trip to Disney On Ice. Stephen got us front row seats. It was just as memorable as the first time I went as a kid.
Now it was time for Thnksgiving. Our big group became large when we invited our friends over to celebrate with us. We also fried our first turkey. It was one of the best Thanksgivings I will ever remember.
November turns into December and it was time to get ready for Christmas and our trip to Disneyland. It was our first time going alone as a family. We usually have other family members join us. It was also Caspens first time on a plane. Even though it was really crowded, we had so much fun. it was also our first time staying in a Disney Hotel.
We came home and Celebrated Christmas Eve with our good friends the Feisst. This also marked the first year we put up lights on the house.
Christmas day came soon and we headed out to my aunt and uncles house. We had so much eating and playing games.
The end of Christmas marked the time for Caspen to get his first cavity filled. I was so worried for him. He got the laughing gas and was a riot telling us how Spiderman loves us and how he is 46 years old. He did really well, but with having a numb mouth gave himself a fat lip.
Now it was time to celebrate our first New Years party. We invited our friends over. I made a huge cake for the Feisst to announce the sex of their new baby. Its a girl!. We had so much fun celebrating together.
We brought in the new year with old friends Jon and Shyloh
With new friends the Danielson family
And the Griffith family
So here we stand a couple feet into 2010. We have some special moments coming up in our life. I have some weddings coming up. Im throwing my first baby shower. I feel it fit since I just threw my first bridal shower for my cousin Mindy. The rest of Willows 1st grade year. Stephen has another patrol coming up, this one wont be as enjoyable. I know 2009 was filled with many first and Im sure 2010 will be as well. So many things happen over a year. More than can be put into a little blog. It was a year of happiness, saddness, craziness, but it was a year of memories and life lessons. Another year older and another year gone. I look forward to the future, even though it means were all getting a little older. My babies are no longer babies. Soon they wont be kids they will be teenagers. The years go by to fast, good or bad it goes to fast. Keep looking forward and be thankful for your life experiences, since you always learn something.
Happy New Year!
