Some catching up to do and Hooray pictures!

Much has happened in the last few months so I figured I'd do a break down of previous events from pictures I have on my camera (by the way, I was able to recover those pictures from my previous post!). For details of our past events, please see picture captions.

Anniversary-Halloween:

Nov 1st-Washington Trip:

Washington Trip (including Thanksgiving):

Sophy is showing us what it means to be two without being two yet...Let's just leave it at that. :) At the same time she is learning so much so fast that I can't even keep up with her. She sings "I am a Child of God" almost all by herself and can be found walking around the house in "stuck mode" singing "teach-ah-me, guide-ah-me, teach-ah-me, guide-ah-me" (my dad thinks she might be Italian) over and over again (Troy and I both say to each other, "We're trying, we're trying!"), she suprised us by counting to 10 on her own the other day. She sat down by me at Gma Anderson's house and counted 1-10 then said "Mommy, I count to 10!" to make sure I knew what she had done. We feel very lucky to have such a sweet and special girl.

We've had a great deal of fun lately and are very grateful for our family and friends. You mean so much to us!! Thank you for your great examples of strength, kindness, love and support.
