Family Photo Shoot

Last weekend we had a Family Photo Shoot at Stewart Farm in South Surrey with Deb Brown Photography.  We used Deb for Adriana's new born shoot and thought we would do a family shoot this year rather than Sears Portrait Studio.  We are so happy with how the photos turned out, we weren't sure how Adriana would be as she usually turns her face as soon as she sees a camera.  As you can see from the photo's this wasn't the case, she was a little ham!  We are not reviling one of the photo's as it is the one we have chosen to give out in our Christmas cards so you will have to wait to see the cutest one!

Westham Island Pumpkin Patch

Newest Little Pumpkin Patch

We walked down to the Cloverdale Farm Market with the Davies and Zacour's to experience the Newest Little Pumpkin Patch.  The kids had such a blast walking/running through the maze.  They even got a chance to go in the Bouncy Castle when it was clear of the big kids.  They also had an old wagon set up that the kids could play on, Adriana took a fond liking to the pole in the middle as you can see from one of the pictures above.

My Little Austrian

 Christmas 1984 (28 months)

 I am wearing my Oma's Dirndl from when she lived in Austria

 The only way I could get her to smile was to let her walk on my bed.

Here she is laughing at her Daddy making a fool of himself.

I was organizing Adriana’s closet yesterday and came across my Dirndl.  It was a good thing I tried it on when I did as the buttons on the dress were a bit tight on Adriana.  I decided to find some pictures of myself when I wore it.  I must say everyone thought I was a big toddler…….well Adriana is much bigger!  My mom bought me the Dirndl when we were in Austria when I was 21 months and in the picture I am 28 months old and still wearing it.

Ailish's 4th Birthday

Ailish had a princess themed party for her 4th Birthday.  One of my students, Arianna, was gracious enough to come out to Ladner to teach the party a Ballet and Hip Hop Dance.  All the kids were very cute.  Adriana was a bit unsure at first but once she saw everyone dancing she got right in there.  

Happy Birthday Ailish!

Rained Out

This past weekend was suppose to be the year end camping trip with the Prak's but was cancelled due to RAIN.  Instead we decided to have a sleep over at our house.  The next day we went to Captain Kids and Spaghetti Factory for lunch.  The rain out also made it possible for us to attend Andre's surprise 80's 30th Birthday Party. We had a great weekend but are sad we didn't get the last camping trip in, we will just have to wait 8 months to get out again.
