Sophia, Rachel, and $6.00

On the way to pick up the poodles Mommy said that she would offer $6.00 to anyone who would get rid of their hamster. Kate and Henry agreed to that offer right away but old, fatty Aggie is going to hang out with me for a while yet. This is a very rare picture. This is my only one of all three of them together, mostly looking at the camera, and not blurry. Here is the last picture of them together. This must be embarrassing to Rachel.
I think that Aggie is lonely even though Mommy says she doesn't even remember them now. Sophia does have red eyes in real life but my camera (that doesn't work very well) makes her eyes look even redder then normal.

This is the last picture that you will ever see of Sophia on my blog.
This is the last picture you will ever see of Rachel on my blog.

I hope that they will remember us! (Even though I know that they won't.)

Henry's 6!

I can't believe how fast time goes by! I also can't believe that Henry is six! This is his Transformer birthday cake. The candy things: Pure sugar. Yuck.
He didn't do that well with blowing out his candles this year. It took him two maybe three tries to blow them all out. He sure was cute about it though.


He was too busy eating cake to smile for me.
This is finally what I get. He looks really happy here.
He gave me a good smile when he had cake in his mouth.
I think that he really liked his gifts this year.
He was tearing through the presents so fast! In no time at all he was done opening them.


He got really carried away with the opening of presents that he was standing on his chair most of the time.
And here are all of his presents. We got most of them on our girls' date in Fargo at the beginning of November. He would have loved Toys_r_us.
He got quite a few trucks.
When he had only torn through enough wrapping paper to see what was inside the gift he said "Okay, I already know what is in this one. Next one coming up." Or something like that. Henry doesn't really play with this toy as much as Daddy does. It has a remote control and it requires a lot of skill. (I think)

This is something Star Wars.
When we went to visit the Blacks in Colorado they had a snowball maker and Henry loved it. So they got him one for his birthday.
I got this for him. I don't think that he really liked it compared to some of his other toys.

Henry loved this Indiana Jones sword and knives from Dave and Bev. I think it was his favorite present or at least one of his favorites.
Henry decided for his birthday lunch he wanted to go to Space Aliens. I think he really liked it but everyone was distracted by the fact that we were getting our puppies right after that.

I didn't really get as many tickets but I didn't mind because I just couldn't wait to get the puppies!
Kate got the most tickets out of anyone. She may have had a little help but in the end she ended up with 300 something tickets.
Henry ended up with quite a few in the end too. I think that Henry had a great birthday and everyone had fun. Even though we were pretty busy during his birthday we had a great time!

Old town, Fort Collins, Colorado

While we were visiting the Blacks we went to Old Town. I thought it was very pretty there. Prettier then Minot if you ask me.
I love the pictures I got of the trees! I like this one the best.


I have absolutely NO idea what this is supposed to be. It looks very interesting though.

The Blacks

We had a great time at the Black's house in Colorado and we all really miss them. They are so cute! This is Kate with Ezra.
Henry is VERY touchy, apparently.

Me and Asher, I mean, Batman.

Me and Obed. As you can see he loves books.



Me and Solomon. So cute! And Chubby!


Ezra
Asher


This is Kate, Ezra, and Asher in their secret castle. I understand that this picture is bad but, whatever.
Obed

We really miss them and I hope we can see them again next year!

New years/New years eve party

We had our New years/New years eve party at Dave and Bev's rental house. It was very fun and I only fell asleep once. Acually I was the only one who fell asleep at all. This is what took up about an hours worth of time. Scrabble.
For some reason everyone wanted to throw all of the decorations on my head. I didn't really mind though.


HAPPY NEW YEARS!
