Missouri

Whose ready for a road trip? Sabi is! We spent two weeks in Missouri for Thanksgiving.



"Grandma's little tinkerbell" and grandma played dress-up with some pretty pearl necklaces.


Such a pretty grandma!



Playing with Grandpa.


Played with 'Auntie' Krystal.


Played with Great-Aunt Carla.


Took a walk along the Missouri River with Grandma and Grandpa. Boy, it was cold!


Mommy and Papa went on a date to Stone Hill Winery to have dinner. That is where we had our wedding and it was romantic to go back. It was our first time leaving you. Grandma Dee Dee had so much fun with you that the two hours flew by and when we arrived back home she didn't think we even had time for dinner. You did great and enjoyed your time with grandma and grandpa.


Grandma and grandpa let you open your Christmas presents while you were there. You mostly ate the wrapping paper! They got you lots of fun learning toys and a Santa blanket and hat.



Wearing the pretty dress grandma Dee Dee and grandpa David got you!



You watched a little TV while we all sat watching you! You are too cute!



We looked at Aunt Shana's scrapbooks. She did a really good job preserving such precious memories.


You played with cousin Levi.


Brenden, Papa and mommy played the new Monopoly game (Millionaire). Brenden claimed that he was going to win, because he is the Monopoly master. But Papa ended up winning, with Brenden a close second.


We celebrated grandpa's 29th birthday.



We made him a pineapple up-side-down cake, his favorite.


Aunt Shana, Grandma and Mommy made Thanksgiving dinner together for the first time. Everything turned out terrific! It was so much fun spending the day cooking together.



Aunt Shana quickly discovered that you like facing forward in the grocery cart. So she pushed you backwards through the whole store! How sweet is that?!?!


We had breakfast at the local dinner and then the girls went shopping at the town square. We picked out material for your measure chart mommy is making you.



Julia played with grandpa some more!


Another trip to Wal-mart. I pushed Brenden and Brenden pushed Julia. We made a fantastic train!


Julia played with grandpa some more.

You played with Brenden, who loving calls you, "baby jues."


You played with Paige.


You played with Eric too.


We spent a lot time playing Rock Band! I can't believe I didn't get a picture of it. Brenden, Levi and Papa played the electric guitar. Mommy was on the drums and Aunt Shana sung. It was a blast! Mississippi Queen... ROCK ON!!!
