A TRIP TO THE EXHIBITION GROUNDS FOR AGGIE DAYS.

Getting ready to go and see all the farm animals. This was Kenzie's expression when we told her she was going to see sheep and piggies.

Cousin Jordan came with us.

Justin said this is where "chicken wings" come from.

They had some really cute mini wagons and trailers that were just Kenzie's size.



Kenzie's favorite, and mine too, were the little piggies. They kept licking and sniffing her fingers. We fell in love with them!!

Kenzie got an up close look at a tiny chick. Two seconds after the photo was taken, she grabbed it's head and started to twist it. She's so humaine!!

The tractors were GINORMOUS!!!!

PAPA'S BIRTHDAY PARTY!!!

We decided it was time to go and visit Mama and Papa and what better time than Grandpa's Birthday! We had a wonderful time celebrating with them and other members of our family. We even took a trip down to the states to do some shopping and go to the BEST mexican restaurant I've ever been to! Thanks Mom and Dad for a great relaxing time!!!

I decorated Dad's bithday cake. It tasted as good as it looked!!! Dad's showing me how big to cut his piece!!!

Dad and his hero Norm!!!

Mom always sets a pretty table! My mom's sister and her family joined us for dinner.

After dinner it turned into hair dressing 101. My cousin Miranda insisted that her mom's hair should be flipped out and not in. Looks great Lisa!!!

The two M&M's!!! Miranda Marie and Mackenzie Marie.

Having a nap with Grandma. Heaven!!!

GREEK ANYONE???

I don't normally bring a camera to my catering jobs, but this one was so colourful I couldn't resist! I did chicken pitas, veggies and dip, a lovely couscous salad and a fruit pizza for dessert.

A FUTURE CAREER????

While I was finishing up some prep work for a catering job, I could hear Mackenzie whimpering in the background. I ignored it till she finally came running into the kitchen with tears rolling down her face. The sad thing is that I couldn't stop laughing!!!

MY BIG GIRL!!!

I turned around and looked at Mackenzie the other day and just about fell over!! My baby is gone and been replaced with this beautiful little girl that I can't take my eyes off!! She is truly a gem!!

We thought is was time for Kenzie to have a "big girl" bed, so Justin took the rails off one side of the bed. After wiping my eyes, (yes I sobbed) I started telling her that this was "Kenzie's BIG bed". She thought it was the coolest thing and even hung out in her room for a while after we left. When it came time for bedtime she wasn't to sure about her new bed so she insisted that the only place to go to sleep was "Mommies bed". After telling the Three Bears story 3 times she got up and said "Kenzie's bed" so we went to her room and she crawled into her "big bed" and I pushed the foam close to the edge and kissed her and said goodnight. I was awoken at around midnight to find Kenzie in bed with us! Justin said that when he came upstairs to go to bed he checked in with Kenzie and she had fallen onto the foam and was rolling around in a daze. So the rail went back up!!

CHRISTMAS MORNING

Santa brought Kenzie a wagon!

I had to keep handing her all the presents...

because she wouldn't get out!!! Great gift Santa!!!
