You have been gone one year




Grandmas Chair
Grandma's chair is old and worn
It has been through death and seen new ones born
She kept warm with her love
and still does from high above.
A year has gone by without her here,
but her memories still, we all hold so dear.
Often I thought how we would make it,
after she left us to go upstairs and sit.
But I now know family bonds just grow stronger,
and the times between visits grow shorter not longer.
Grandma's chair never sits alone,
the love that has grown in it, every day is shown.
I love you grandma!!

Sledding Fun


We went sledding today! Kendal even went down all by herself, she said "it wasn't so scary mommy!" It was a perfect day.... nice light snow falling and not to cold!

Beautiful "frostette"


Kendal and mommy made a snowman last weekend. She named her frosty at first, but decided to have it be a girl snowman so daddy said "frostette". Kendal laughed when I put licorice on her as her mouth. I however had forgotten how much work it is to build a snowman! I was sweating and pretty much out of breath......Do I need to start exercising?

Her hand at Bowling


Kendal got to try h er hand at bowling a few weekends back. She did great scoring a 67!!! she would run up to the edge of the lane, drop to her knees and push the ball. Only once did we have to call for the guy to get her ball, as it stopped in the middle of the lane!
