Alyssa Is Six Months

I can't believe how time flies!  Alyssa is already six months old.  She is always so happy and is pretty easy going.  She brings such joy to my day.  She is my little sweetheart.  If only I could freeze her at this stage for just a little longer.

Blog-worthy

I have to blog about something new that I have been using in the kitchen. It is Italian Seasonings. I have used dry Italian Salad dressing mix before in different recipes, but never this. It is awesome to add a little on top of a homemade pizza, bread sticks, cheese bread, and even cover chicken in it. I'm sure there are a lot more things I could do with it but that is what I have done in the last week or so that I've had it. I love it!

Alyssa's Blessing Day

June 7, 2009

Alyssa was so peaceful that day. During the blessing she looked up at her daddy, watching and listening to him.

This is the Garrett group that all came from Utah

This is the Bigler group. About half of the people live in Idaho and the other in Utah. We felt so blessed and lucky to have so much support from so many family members. I think there was a total of about 50 people there that day -- all immediate family members!

Alyssa, My Baby Doll

Here is Alyssa on May 30 she is just over one month old. What a cute little baby doll. I love little girls and dressing them up. She is so sweet!

Haley and Alyssa, there is definitely already a resemblance! Cute sisters!

Memorial Day Weekend Camp Out

Every year we have a camp out over Memorial Day weekend and this year out of desperation to find any place to camp (everywhere was very crowded) we camped at Devil's Creek. Since I have known the Biglers we have NEVER camped in a "campground" but this year it was the last resort. Marci and Alyssa opted to stay indoors in Utah because Alyssa was only a month old. Everybody else had a great time in the mud and rain! This is Raegan waiting for a ride!

Haley's Preschool Graduation

Haley attended Little Einstein's Preschool with Mrs. Grover. She had such a great year and really loved her teacher. In fact, when Mrs. Grover told her students it was the last day she told me that Haley got teared up. She adored Mrs. Grover!

Mrs. Grover

They learned so many cute songs with actions this year and they were able to perform a few of them at the graduation. Good job Haley!

Haley's Spring Ballet Performance

This was Haley's second year at Petite Ballet. The recital was called "Corduroy" after the children's book. Haley's class was dressed as dolls. Haley is so beautiful and graceful. She had a great year and a fun time with many of her friends in the class.
