Our Silly Little Monkey

We had an empty box sitting around the other day and Niklas decided it would be a fun thing to play with. It's amazing that even with all his other toys (all over the house) a simple box caught his attention for awhile and was fun for him to play with. There was actually another box (on another day) as well that he was pretending was a car, it's too bad I didn't get a picture of that one.

8th Anniversary

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!!!!!!!

It's kind of hard to believe that it has been 8 years now. I just thought I'd post a message (for once) and tell Amanda - I LOVE YOU. Thank you for all you do for me and Niklas. Although you say I don't say it enough to you - just know that I love you very much. I have enjoyed being with you for the last 8 years and look forward to many, many more years together - both here and into eternity.

Canning Love it

So this year I decided to can again. I canned peaches, salsa, Tomatoes, and Dill Pickles, Well actually I only canned the peaches and salsa my aunt kind off did the rest for me. I had a really fun time canning my peaches, my wonderful neighbor Celeste wanted to learn how to can peaches and got peaches with me this year. Wednesday was the longest but funnest day I have had. I hope Celeste enjoyed doing peaches to. We first worked on hers and got all of hers done then we decided to work on my Peaches. We got done about 9:00 that Night. We also decided to also invite my other neighbor Melissa to come over and visit. Little did we know that she actually wanted to help. Thanks you guys for a really fun Wednesday. Sorry to Celeste husband for keeping her away all day and night.

Nik's First Day of Preschool

I can't believe it my baby is finally going to school. NO he wasn't sad that he was going to school he was upset with mom for waking him up. Nik started school the day after his birthday party and he was one really tired little boy. Don't worry once he got there he was so excited to be there. He loves school. When we get home from school Nik is so excited to go over the things he learns, He shows me the papers he colors, then when Cory comes home from work Niklas can't wait to show his dad what he has learned. Sometimes I think he would rather be at school then home. He asks everyday if he can go back to Ms. Sherrys and play with his friends there.

We had Niklas Birthday party the Monday we got back from Disneyland. He was so funny when we asked him what kind of party he wanted, He always said that he wanted a Mickey and a Pirate Party. So it was kind of a mix theme. We appreciate our family for coming and celebrating with us. Thanks for all the support you give us. Thanks to all of our friends that came, it really made his day even more special.

This was something fun that happened. We were standing waiting to for the Monarail and the driver asked us if we would like to sit in the front with him. Cory and I can't remember if we ever have been able to sit there before so it was a new experience for us and Niklas. Then once we got to the next stop at Downtown Disney the driver asked if Niklas would like to sit in his chair for a picture of course he did, They also let Niklas honk the horn, He loved it.
