Walk MS

On Sunday, May 3, Allison and I are doing the MS walk here in Willmar. Usually I don't do things that involve me having to raise money, but I think it is a really important cause! My goal is $200. I think that is reachable!! If you want to make a donation you can do it online, or just mail or give me a check. Checks payable to the National MS Society. Thanks so much!!!! Your generosity is GREATLY appreciated! http://main.nationalmssociety.org/site/TR?px=6590269&pg=personal&fr_id=9628 This is suppose to be a link to my "page" that was created when I registered. Hopefully it works!! Let me know if you have any questions!

Chopper

Last night Jesse and I went out with friends to the VFW in Willmar. They had a DJ there, Chopper, he is pretty dorky but draws a big crowd and plays good music! Allison also had her FIRST babysitter, other than grandparents!! She was an angel! (We put her to bed before we left and she slept!).

Giggles!

Allison's laugh is the best thing in the world! I could listen to her all day long. The other night she was kind of cranky and Jesse was sitting next to her and he started playing with the bulb syringe suction thing and hit himself on the head with it...she started laughing so hard! This is actually the end of it, I watched her for a little bit before I was realized that I had to get it on camera!! I love it.

Allison's New Ride

The other day I came home from work to find Jesse pulling Allison around in the clothes basket! She seemed to be enjoying herself. The picture I took of Jesse and her didn't turn out...but here's one of just Allison.

Bath Time

Allison loves her bath and now she gets a bath in the big tub! She loved it, splashed and splashed! So much fun!

Happy Birthday to Me!

Yesterday was my Birthday...27 years old now! Usually in past years I have really looked forward to my birthday and talked about it being my birth MONTH and WEEK instead of just a day! This year it kind of snuck up on me! Maybe because it was a Monday and we didn't really have anything planned but more so with Easter and everything we have been so busy. But it turned out to be a great day! And I am celebrating all week! Yesterday for my b-day my mother-in-law took me out to lunch and they sang to me and put a sombrero on my head (don't you all wish I had a picture of that?!), it reminded me of a birthday back in college, we went to Mexican Village and they did the same thing! Anyway, then we ended up going to Litch. and I got to spend the evening with the Grabow's!! Now on Thurs. we are grilling with friends and to top it off it is supposed to be beautiful weather most of the week!! Yeah! I got a present from Jesse and Allison, a new watch!! Allison helped me open it! And Thanks again to everyone for the b-day wishes!! I felt so loved!

Happy Easter

Allison's first Easter and she got a basket full of her favorite things...food! She also got a few fun things, teethers, bath toys, and a cell phone (so she can call all her favorite people!). I love cards and I had to get my baby her first Easter card, I read it to her and then she did what she loves to do, chewed on it! Now it is going in her scrap book, drool marks and all! Allison got to see both Grandparent's and all her cousins on Easter. Here is a picture of Allison and Emma in their Easter outfits at church. They were so cute!

Josh and Katie's House-Warming Party

A couple weeks ago we went and visited Josh and Katie in their new house in Watertown, SD. It was a good time with only 1 minor casualty!! Here is a picture of us before Josh went to "sleep" at 9 p.m.! Also Jesse was "man-handled" by a friend of Josh's. I'm not to sure about those SD people!! (J/K Josh!)
