First bike

Grandma & Grandpa bought Bowen his very first bike!!!  SO cute and he loves it!

My Baby Boy is 2!

I can't believe I missed this post!!! I'm huge slacker, you can say it, and I missed posting my baby boy's birthday.  Bowen turned 2 and is talking up a storm.  He'll repeat everything you say and has just started putting 5 words together, which I think qualifies as his first sentence. "Mommy. See. Outside. Airplane. Sky".  I was astonished.  Good job buddy!!!  We feel so blessed to have this little boy in our lives

Ok I totally want to do this!!!!

The Left

I LOVE concerts!!!  I love everything about them.  I love all the people, I love the music, I love the drums, i love the guitar solos, I love the acoustic versions of songs.  But most of all, I love going out to concerts supporting new bands.  I enjoy their talent.  Recently hubby and I went to a concert doing just that, supporting the underdog.  His cousin his the bass player in a band called "The Left" and they played at the Peak Performance 2009 and came in 2nd. Love their music, love their talent.

Just thought I would leave a little plug for you all to enjoy from the concert we attended at the Biltmore Cabaret in Vancouver, BC.

California...HERE WE COME!

In just over a week, our family of four will be traveling just over two hours south to California.  As predicted in a previous post when we had a visit from our friends, the Thiessen's who live in El Cajon, CA, we are making our second trip to Disneyland as parents.  We did this trip in September of 2008, right before Camryn turned 2 (so she was a free flight) and now that she is just over 5, we are doing it again, and Bowen is almost 2.

I am really looking forward to this trip.  My parents have decided to join us in Disneyland, as well as my sister and her husband.  Brendan, Tisha, Ella, Gavin & Cora, will also be joining us and after five days across the street from The Magic Kingdom, we will follow them back to their home for the rest of our trip.

Terry has been working 11 hour days, 6 days a week and we are feeling super blessed to be able to spend 10 days together in a totally different place, country, etc.

Happy Valentine's Day to everyone!!!  We'll see you when we return.
