Just another day at our house.

Ricky and Amber came up for dinner tonight and the kids had a blast. They love it when they come up. Here are some pictures of our night.

Casey thinks it is so funny when the cat moves. Nana got her this Fur real cat for Christmas and she was scared at first now it is one of her favorite presents.

Casey trying to tackle her daddy

I got a new laptop for Christmas and Bailey loves it. She loves all the games on it. Here she is showing off her computer skills.

Uncle Ricky told Amber it was time to go home. So Casey decided to put on Ambers coat and get her purse and be Amber and go home with Uncle Ricky we all thought it was cute.

Riley's Birthday Party

Bailey got invited to Riley's birthday party and here are some pictures I took of the party. Bailey had a blast.

The party was a dress up party and they all seemed to have a blast.

Here Bailey is watching everyone getting ready for pin the tail on the donkey. The all loved that game.

Bailey is watching Riley open her gifts. She keeps telling me after each gift who is going to get that for her at her birthday. I told her to remember so we all know what we are getting her. lol

And they all take swings at the donkey

some were dangerous with the stick

and now candy for all

they all had a blast and I hope that Riley had a great birthday.

Jan--Riley and Bailey's play night.

Bailey decided to have Riley over to stay the night. The both played in the Castle and then watched movies while they ate popcorn. They had a blast.

They both fixed the Castle up and played and dressed up.

I didn't take pictures of them playing but I did get them eating popcorn. I was playing with Casey while they played and didn't get around to the pictures. sorry

Once Bailey saw I was taking pictures she had to move around and do a pose.

Dec 31st, 2008--Our New Years Eve.

No big parties here. Daniel had to work a double so he wasn't going to be home. I decided that me and the girls decided to pop some popcorn and get diet coke and watch some TV. Here are our New Years Eve pictures. Enjoy

Bailey being a little model
Here is Bailey who was rocking to hard and fell back. She was being really silly

The more that Casey watches Bailey the more she wants to be like her. Here she is trying to lay in her chair like her sissy is.

She almost did it. Here is the pose that Bailey was doing.

Honestly this was our night. The girls playing around in the living room and me just taking pictures of them. Don't I sound exciting? (I had a great time anyways)

Bailey trying to be relaxed and laid back.

Honestly She just keeps doing what Bailey does and Bailey just loves it.

My two angels.

I don't care what anyone sayes they are two special girls. You can see how much they love each other.

Here is what we watched. Dora the Snow Princess. I think I can recite this show in my sleep.

Casey loves her popcorn. I do have to say that I think more went onto the floor then into her mouth. Oh well.

This is what life is all about: Family and bonding like night like this one. Girls thanks for spending New Years with your mom. Love you two, Love Mom
