Sarah's Wellness Rodeo

Sarah had a wellness rodeo at her school the end of February. Russ got to go to the rodeo and they had fun running around and doing all the activites.

Chinese New Year 2011

Chinese New Year was at China Bear Restaurant this year. When we got there, there were people setting up. There was a huge buffet of food. After lunch, we got to play games, feed the koi, have our faces painted and much more. At each of the games, there were prizes. Sarah even colored part of the Great Wall. There were also silent auction items that I bid on. I won a pirate game and Chinese firecrackers. We had to leave just as the lion dancers came as Micah ended up with ear infections in both ears. The day was lots of fun.

What a great weekend

We had a great weekend. It was very busy but lots of fun. It started on Saturday morning and meeting all our friends at Hunan Plus for lunch and then shopping at Mulan. We had to get shoes and trinkets for the upcoming Chinese New Year celebration. Then we came home and spent the evening playing together. On Sunday we went and got Aunt Marcy and took her to the museum to see the pirates! It was a little scary for Sarah but she did enjoy most of it. Later we took Uncle Jim and Aunt Marcy back to Hunan Plus for a wonderful dinner. It was great being with family. At the restaurant, Sarah got a little jealous of all the attention Aunt Marcy was giving Micah. Russ and I had to be very careful how much attention we gave Sarah and Micah at that time. Sarah is very sensitive and sees and hears all that is going on around her.

Happy New Year 2010-2011

New Years was a big bash! The Gees, Fourniers, Norris' excluding John but with James (Wendy's dad) and Sarah Glaze and James Boreillo (sp) were here. We had spaghetti, homemade bread, salad, jello (which we forgot to serve until dessert, chili con queso, a cream cheese dip and many kids of chips and crackers. For dessert we had banana splits and brownies. We then went outside to light sparklers. At 11:00 we celebrated the new year with sparkling grape juice and champagne and everyone went home. It was a perfect way to bring in the new year.
MAY THE BEST OF 2010 BE THE WORST OF 2011.

Christmas 2010

I can't believe that the Christmas season is ending. We had a wonderful time. Russ and I were off of work for the whole 2 weeks. The family went to Palestine to the Polar Express, Sarah went to a winter camp and lost her tooth, Santa came and brought Sarah her first DSI and Micah had a lot of firsts. (first Chanukkah, first train ride, first Christmas...) Janet came over for Chrsitmas as well as the Fourniers. We had an awesome time. I wish we didn't have to go back to work.

Sarah loses her frist tooth

Sarah lost her first tooth today. She went to a winter camp at Cypress Creek Gymnastics and while she was watching a talent show, reached in her mouth and pulled the tooth out. She said it didn't hurt and there was no blood. Tonight we will place it under her pillow and see what the Tooth Fairy brings.

Huntsville Duck Pond

After a wonderful day and evening at the Polar Express, on Sunday, we stopped at the duck pond in Huntsville to feed the ducks. Sarah had a great time feeding bread to the ducks and Micah had fun picking up dirt and sticks and throwing it around. We got a few really good pictures of both of them.
