More Christmas Pictures




It's Over

Christmas is over can you believe it? I sure can't. It was a very nice Christmas though. Lots of time with family!

Kamryn got spoiled which is just what I hoped for! She has a lot of dollies which she loves everyone of them! As I write this she has one of them in her arms.

I have a lot of pictures as well, so I may need to do more then one post.

As many of you know I got a Cricut for Christmas!!!! I am so very very excited. I have already tried it out and I Love It! I also got a peacoat which I had wanted for a long time. My mom and dad got me the case of the Cricut which will make carrying it much easier! They also got me a disk to go in the Cricut. Ok, so maybe I got a little spoiled as well! :-)

We got so much stuff and seen so many people I'm not even going to write about all of it, but just that it was very nice!

For New Year's we are going over to one of our friends homes for a wild game feast. Yummy! I sure hope McDonald's is open................

Happy New Year to each and everyone of you! I hope the New Year brings new and exciting adventures to all of us! Pray for our troops who can't be with their families.

Coooooookies!

Tonight we finished our Christmas cookies! Kamryn of course "helped" with them and she had a blast! I hope to make this a family tradition with her as I had this tradition with my mom, dad and sister. Ken helped as well which I really appreciate.

Today was so cold and nasty out it was nice to get some house cleaning done and cookies made. Tomorrow I hope to clean the rest of the house so that on Tuesday when I have Isaiah I can just have fun with the kids!

I can't believe Christmas is Wednesday! YIKES............ I am very much looking forward to spending time with family. We leave Wednesday and don't plan on returning to Appleton until Sunday. I am sure I will be well ready by then to be back home in my own bed.

Merry Christmas everyone! And may God bless everyone of you now and in the new year.

Melting Pot

Last night a couple girls from our church playgroup went to the Melting Pot because on Thursdays they have Ladies Night and you can get cheese fondue, salad and chocolate fondue for $15.00.

It was a very enjoyable evening. We laughed a lot! Ok, I laughed harder than I had laughed in a really long time. It was nice.

The meal itself was very good we got Beer Cheese and Spinach and Artichoke Cheese. Both cheeses were excellent. Then salad. (which was ok) On to chocolate! We got flaming turtle and peanut butter something. Again both were very good! However, honestly I wouldn't pay full price for the meal. Don't get me wrong it was delicious and I was overly full, but nothing I would pay $50.00 for.

It was a very enjoyable evening and I hope to do it again.

Today is a snow day so I don't have Isaiah. Kamryn always misses Isaiah when he's not here, because she gets bored with mommy!

Stay warm everyone! More snow on the way for the weekend! YIPEE............

The Big 30!

Today a great dad and husband turns "30" today! Happy Birthday Honey! Or Happy Bertday as Kaden says.......

Unfortunetly, it's not such a happy day. Ken has caught the flu bug. He has been throwing up since about 1am this morning and it coming out of both ends. (Like the graphics?) I feel so bad for him. And the worst part is there is nothing I can do to make it go away.

Kamryn had the bug on Saturday, Ken on Sunday/Monday, am I next???? I hope not!
But if that's the case, get it over with so I am not sick over Christmas. That would not be good!

We were suppose to go out to dinner tonight, I guess that's not happening. So maybe later this week.

Wednesday we are suppose to get 6 inches of snow again! When will it stop??!?!?!?

Well, try to stay warm, it is nasty cold out.

Sorry no pictures, I didn't think it would be right to take a picture of Ken in bed with his bucket.

I LOVE YOU HONEY! Get better soon.

Dannce the Night Away



This weekend was Travis and Jaimes wedding. However, Saturday morning Kamryn woke up puking! So Kamryn and I didn't make the wedding. :-( But by late afternoon she seemed to be doing better so I took her to the dinner and dance. She wasn't completly herself, but she had fun I think. I have some pictures to prove it. The little boy in the picture is not related, but he found Kamryn attractive and wouldn't leave her sight. It was a nice reception and dinner.

That is all I've got for ya! Kamryn is feeling better and hopefully none of us get it. I did feel a little crummy on Friday night, but didn't throw up so maybe I had a little bit of whatever is going around. Who knows!

Who is this Santa Guy?

Daddy, Kamryn and I went to see Santa tonight at the mall. She didn't cry! Although, it did seem as though she wanted to because she certainly didn't smile.

I also took some pictures of Kamryn in the snow on Tuesday.

I won't be blogging tomorrow or the weekend as we will be back home for Travis and Jaime's wedding. I will try to get some pictures of Kamryn busting a move on the dance floor!

One More Picture


Doesn't the t-shirt say it all? Ken's mom got this for Kamryn!

This past weekend

This past weekend we went home because my dad shot a deer and Ken wanted to meat. So anyways, it was a very very nice weekend. Friday night Kamryn and I spent the night by my parents which was fun. They were also watching Kaden for awhile so Kamryn and Kaden got to play. It is so fun to watch, they fight like brother and sister because they are so close in age. Saturday afternoon we then went over to Kens parents so they could spend time with her as well. We helped Grandma Puls put on Christmas decorations and put the lights and ornaments on the tree. Kamryn tried to help put ornaments up, but basically just set them inside the tree. :-)

Saturday night Ken's mom and I went to West Bend to get the last of what she needed for Christmas Decorations. We were home about 9:30pm to find Kamryn and Ken sleeping on the recliner together. It was soooooo cute!

Sunday we came home! Now this weekend we have Travis' Wedding that Ken is usher for so we will be traveling home late afternoon to be home for rehearsal. My parents wanted to watch Kamryn for that since they won't see her the rest of the weekend. Which will be nice for Ken and I.

Today we are just watching the snow keep coming! It is nasty windy out. The drifts are huge! If anybody follows Becky's blog she will be posting pictures. I'm to lazy to go outside and take pictures! :-)

Stay warm!







I forgot to mention Kamryn absolutely loves dollies!! Also, my MIL showed her how to dip her chicken nuggets and fries into Sweet N Sour sauce from McD's and now she LOVES IT! Has to dip everything into sauce. What a silly girl. It doesn't take her long to catch onto things. More pictures to follow.

Oh Christmas Tree

Today was pretty productive. I didn't go to playgroup because the roads were just to nasty! So I stayed home and got some more christmas decorations up. I have just a few more things to get up and I will be all done. I am also almost done with Christmas cards as well. WOW did I have a lot for some reason this year. Just family was well over 40!

Anyways, here are some pictures from Kamryn being silly last night down in the basement as Ken and I tried to reorganize that! What a mess.........
And also some pictures of my decorations!

Tonight we were going to church but because of the weather we are debating that as well. :-( I love advent services, the songs are always so good!

Take care.

Sniffles

Today has been pretty crummy. Kamryn has had a cold for about 2 weeks now, but it has gotten worse with a snotty nose, congested, coughing. YUCKY! Last night it was the worst, she got up at about 3am and didn't go back down until 5ish. She didn't want to be laid down, didn't want to play her toys, didn't want to be held. Just miserable.

So today I took her to the Dr, because I didn't want another night like last night. So I didn't see her primary, but saw the NP who was very very nice. She said Kamryn's ears looked GREAT. But she gave her an anti-biotic for her stuffy nose that she thinks maybe due to a sinus infection. However, teething could be the culprit as well. She wasn't real sure, but didn't want to take any chances which I appreciated. So 10 days of meds and hopefully Kamryn will be ready for Christmas!

Kamryn is napping now as so should I be as I am exhausted. How did I survive when she was tiny and getting up 100 times a night?!?!

Have a good night!

Lots of things!

Well lets start at the Christmas Parade in Appleton which Kamryn absolutely loved! Ken, Kamryn and myself went on I believe it was Tuesday. See what you get when you don't blog daily?!? Anyways, we were a bit skeptical about how long Kamryn would sit to watch people and things pass by, but she loved it! Her favorite were the bands that played Christmas music. She bounced away! It was a lot of fun and we will be making that a family tradition. The pictures came out a bit blurry because they were moving, but I hope you get the drift!

Wednesday night we went home to celebrate Thanksgiving with family. It was very nice. Thursday/Friday and midnight my MIL and I went to the Oshkosh Outlet mall because they opened at midnight, then went back to FDL to get the rest of our items. We were home and all shopped out by 8am. What some great deals! My MIL got me the CRICUT for Christmas! I am sooooooo excited. It was $99 at JoAnn Fabric.

We came home last night in preparation for the snow storm that turned out to be not that bad. We were expecting 8-11 inches of snow and I think we got 3-4inches. I feel bad because Ken was hunting down in Sun Prairie with his cousin and having a good time and I made him come home so that we could get up to Appleton before the big storm hit. And Sun Prairie got only 1-2 inches. But I guess it's better to be safe then sorry!

Today I am going to be getting my Christmas decorations out and put the Fall decorations away. I love Christmas! Tonight I might go to scrap n craft at church depending on the weather conditions.

This weekend we are going home again so Ken can go back to Sun Prairie and finish his hunting! I plan on spending most of this weekend by my parents because they didn't see Kamryn a lot this weekend. Have to be fair.

Anyways, try to stay warm!
