Trick or Treating

Here is a short video of Brianna trick or treating!

Halloween 2009 Quarantined!!

Our little ballerina wasn't able to go real trick or treating on Halloween this year.... it's a good thing that she was able to go last weekend at the Russian River ( pictures will be coming soon) We were supposed to go to Grandma and Grandpa Hodgson's for the pumpkin patch again. Well, Brianna had started to get sick on Monday.... so we decided to take her to her pediatrician on the way to Susanville just to make sure that she was ok to travel. Well, her doctor said DEFINITELY NOT!! She likely has swine flu. We were so bummed...... and so were grandma and grandpa. Then that afternoon I started to feel a little sick.. fever, cough, lethargy. It was best that we didn't travel and possibly expose everyone else. Now, this evening Rob is feverish and achy. I think that we all have the swine flu. So, we are quarantined at home.....bummer for Halloween 2009. So, Brianna went TRICK or TREATING at our front door..... She got a few granola bars and some animal crackers. Thank goodness she didn't really know what she was missing!

The water park

Brianna had a great time at the fireman's picnic at the water park. She was running around in the baby pool for about 30 minutes just giggling and having a blast. She was trying to get all the other kids to play with her... waving to them, whatever it took. But the only takers were her attentive parents. All in all, though it was like the coldest day of the year, we all had fun!

My own pony

Well, thanks to Jack's forced generosity, Brianna has her own little pony....which she loves to ride. It's so cute to see her mount and dismount that little pony. And she has figured out how to push it's ears to make him sing to her!! She's very into figuring things out!

Birthday party!!

Well, the Hodgson's missed the actual party, but made it for the family get together the first week of September at Aunt Rachel's house. Brianna had a blast with her cousins..... Grace dressed her up in her pixy wings.... She also put Brianna in a box! We had fun at the park together too! All in all, although a short visit -- lots of fun! Oh, and we can't forget the "simple" door project! Rob and Glenn spent pretty much the whole time putting a new back door in..... ; ) But it now works.....
