We had a busy couple of weeks! It as fun to have Grandma, Grandpa and Aunt Christie come out for a visit. Kent, Meagan, and Jayden even came down for Thanksgiving dinner. I am currently serving in the YW's in our ward and also working on my YW recongintion award again, so I have decided to learn how to sew. (I know mom you tried to teach me homemaking skills while I was at home but I wasn't interested). I completed my first project thanks to a couple of friends. I will be starting a quilting class on Tuesday and I am super excited. I hope that it will go okay!

Walker is almost thirteen months and has started walking. It is really fun to watch he learn as he becomes more confident. He is so proud of himself and he has his own cheerleading squad. (Ry and Taya).

As the colder weather approaches we are counting down the days until christmas. We are breaking tradition this Christmas and going to Hawaii. The girls have been saving spare change for months and there piggy bank is almost full. I am not looking forward to the plane ride with a 15month old, but I am sure the beach will be worth it. We are excited to see Grandma and Grandpa Schaffer, Aunt Leah, Aunt Ash and Ryker.

And thanks to Aunt Rach and Uncle Mark when we get home there will be two puppies ready to come home with us!!! (SHHH the girls don't know). They think we are getting them in the spring when Eric graduates. Thanks guys for the early arrivals!!! (LOL)

Walker's 1st Birthday!!!

Walker loved his ice cream cake!!! 1 week earlier I was making cupcakes for yw's so I gave walker one and he wouldn't even look at it. Here is a few pictures of him enjoying his cake. He loves ICE CREAM (just like his mom).

First's...

This was taken when he was 11 months. He was just starting to stand up around furniture. He thinks he is such a big boy.
Rylee's 1st day of School. She was so excited to start again. Taya a little sad to see her go, but Taya and I get to spend every afternoon together so it is a lot of fun. The girls are in gymnastics this year and Rylee has been taking piano lessons, which she loves. She is catching on really quick.
Walker practicing his walking. Rylee spends most of her day playing with him. She is such a little mom. She usually sets him up, then when he runs into something or falls down he just turns and yells at her. She then rushes over to help him get set up ready to go again.
