Trying to give Mommy a heart attack

The other morning when I went in to check on her, Dani had pulled her blanket over her head. I couldn't see her breathing and for a split second I was sure she had suffocated. But there was nothing wrong, that's just how she decided to sleep. Maybe she was trying to give me a heart attack, maybe her nose was cold, I don't know.

Big surprise

Recently Big Shawn came to visit. He was only here for one evening but it was better than nothing! Here are some pics!






And Dani really liked being behind the wheel of Shawn's big semi truck! That is until he hit the air horn...why can't I be video taping those moments???

Major fashion

Major attitude? Maybe if that attitude is a happy one.

Halloween on Thanksgiving

You've heard of Christmas in July, well on Dani's page you get Halloween on Thanksgiving! In other words, I'm finally getting around to putting up some pictures of the most adorable pink Halloween bunny EVER!



We went all over the place. We stopped at Merry's Jewelers to see Judy and Jim (Smiley wasn't there), Peddler's Wagon to see Kevin, Penny, and Mike. We went to my work to see my co-workers, John's work to see his. My Dad's house, Kat & Tony's, a random yard sale, etc.



Look out for the bunny with a badge!




Big blue eyes


One of Mommy's favorites


Dani with her "Uncle" Tony. They couldn't be any more like 2 peas in a pod!


By the time we got home it was late and Dani was exhausted from the long day but we had lots of fun.

Maybe I'll be able to get the Thanksgiving post up before Christmas!

But while I'm at it, since today is Thanksgiving, if you're reading this chances are you know us and are an important part of our lives. With that in mind I wanted to say that I am thankful for you all and for whatever it is you bring to our lives. Be it family ties or friendship we are blessed to have you.

Morning people...

Dani sure is one!

(Remember, you can click on the collages to see them bigger. And that goes for all of them, not just the ones in this post.)



She's ready for her close up!



But the morning is over now, so we need to get on with our day. Hope you have a great one!

There's a reason we call her Punkin

In the beginning of October we took Dani to the local Pumpkin Patch for some fun and pictures and boy did we get both! We hope you enjoy seeing these pics as much as we enjoyed taking them. We made 2 separate trips and had fun both times.

First let's start with our little pumpkin family


Day one, my little redneck girl in a dress and bare feet in the straw.


Day two, wearing her pink overalls (one of Mommy's favorite outfits)


She can't just be a redneck girl the first day! What's more redneck than chewing on a piece of straw?


On the second day there was a lab there, I don't remember his name but he and Dani were instant friends. Before they were introduced Dani knew he was on the other side of the pumpkins so the first pic is her trying to get his attention (the way she does with our dogs) then is the introduction.



Me and my punkin girl


And now for my absolute most favorite picture of all!

She finally noticed Kissy Bear

Since the very beginning Kat's mom has treated Dani like one of her own grandchildren. She even went so far as to build a bear for her who we've named Kissy Bear. Here are a few pictures of when they were first introduced.



Well, Kissy has been in Dani's crib all along. But the other day Dani finally noticed her!


Thanks Nana Susie!
