Each year I really look forward to watching the girls run furiously to find all the Easter eggs the bunny has left. This year Ashley kept up with her cousins ages 5 and 7. I could barely get her to stop for pictures she was so focused. Maddie really picked up the idea once we pointed out where the eggs were...she insisted on picking them up herself or she'd scream at you.."Nooooooo!" This year all of Dave's family came down to his parents cabin (in Capitol Reef Utah). We rented a one bedroom cabin with a kitchen that is just at the end of his parent's property. The rest of the family opted to camp out in tents....in the RAIN and SNOW. Glad it wasn't me:) We drove on Saturday to a special place called the Donut Hole for a picnic and hike. You climb up the side of a steep rock, and when you get to the top you are overlooking a huge donut hole filled with the softest sand. You attach a climbing rope to the rock and shimmy down into the hole. Ash was so tough climbing all by herself to the top of the rock and Dave helped her shimmy down the rope. Dave carried Maddie all the way up the rock then helped her shimmy down as well. We arrived back to the cabin around 9pm and quickly dyed a few Easter eggs before the kids collapsed into bed. On Sunday, we started the egg hunt around 11am, then had a wonderful ham dinner around 2pm. All the campers packed up to go home, but we stayed Sunday night and made a leisurely trip home to SLC on Monday. We drove home via Goblin Valley and made a quick stop to see the funny looking rocks. It was raining so we opted not to take the girls out of the car for a quick hike. <br />We had a great time visiting with Mike and Katie and Baby Taylor. She is now 7 months old and loving her baby food. She is also very motivated to move and should be crawling shortly. She scoots on her tummy on the floor to whatever she wants. She is always so happy and smiley, and was so good all weekend.<br />Thanks again Grandpa and Grandma Augason for all your hospitality:)<br />Deb Augasonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14879431952402070425noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499272722881420213.post-15246294186069284922011-04-30T15:49:00.000-07:002011-05-01T10:18:04.458-07:00Little Gym and GymnasticsJanuary brought the close of Fall semester at Little Gym with Maddie and Mr. Braden our favorite teacher. It also brought the beginning a a 6 week community education tumbling class for Ashley. We bought Ashley her first leotard, and she changes into it almost everyday at some point. She did really well in class, watching a 4 year old try to do jumping jacks is good for laughter. Gosh darn it, she really tried!<br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="https://picasaweb.google.com/s/c/bin/slideshow.swf" width="288" height="192" flashvars="host=picasaweb.google.com&hl=en_US&feat=flashalbum&RGB=0x000000&feed=https%3A%2F%2Fpicasaweb.google.com%2Fdata%2Ffeed%2Fapi%2Fuser%2FDAugason%2Falbumid%2F5601796610674198033%3Falt%3Drss%26kind%3Dphoto%26authkey%3DGv1sRgCJazgMzxnaXIlgE%26hl%3Den_US" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed><br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="https://picasaweb.google.com/s/c/bin/slideshow.swf" width="288" height="192" flashvars="host=picasaweb.google.com&hl=en_US&feat=flashalbum&RGB=0x000000&feed=https%3A%2F%2Fpicasaweb.google.com%2Fdata%2Ffeed%2Fapi%2Fuser%2FDAugason%2Falbumid%2F5601797414924338625%3Falt%3Drss%26kind%3Dphoto%26authkey%3DGv1sRgCLSsqKWM_dH_KQ%26hl%3Den_US" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed>Deb Augasonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14879431952402070425noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499272722881420213.post-53016508325443361112011-04-30T15:30:00.000-07:002011-05-01T10:10:16.740-07:00Madison's 2nd BirthdayI can't believe she is 2 years old already! I think she still has multiple personality disorder. One minute she is so happy and playing nicely...the next minute screaming wildly and throwing punches. She looks at me devilishly as she runs from me at the store, them screams like a banshee when I capture her and buckle her in the cart. She adores Ashley...as long as Ash let's her do whatever she wants and never steals her toys. She has become QUITE attached to her white blankie, "B" as she calls it "BB" for Binky. "B" gets dragged everywhere on the floor and accumulates roughly 2 pounds of dog fur daily, then she rubs her face in it and snuggles...ugh. When I try to steal it away to wash it she screams like a crazy person. I tried going to get a second one at Target, but they only had it in pink. I bought it anyway thinking the background color would not matter. I was wrong, evidently it is too clean, too pink and too pretty for her. Ugh again. <br />She is finally starting to eat well. She gained quite a bit of weight between 18 and 24 months. She refuses to use a high chair, so apparently food tastes better in a big girl chair with no bib. We are working to just use Binky at nap time and bedtime, so far 1 week in OK. Maybe total removal this summer:)<br />She has become enchanted with the training potty. When we are at home I put her in pull-ups with no pants and all she does all day is pull them down, sit on the potty, wipe with TP, and pull them back up....ALL DAY. No actual pee mind you...I suppose it is still too early. <br />I told Dave before she was born I wanted my second baby to be more snugly...now I'm eating my words. "Hold me" are Maddie's favorite words 24 hours a day. Makes it hard to get things done when she wants to snuggle all day. <br />Maddie, even though you can drive me crazy on any given day, you also make me laugh as you dance in circles with your eyes closed and sing your loudest to songs in the car and wave your arms like you are conducting a symphony. You are my sweet baby and I love you.<br />These photos are her professional 2 year pics from Foto Fly in Draper. For $80 you a get a CD with all the images to use as you please. They do a fantastic job!<br />The second slide show is photos of her party at our house with the family.<br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="https://picasaweb.google.com/s/c/bin/slideshow.swf" width="288" height="192" flashvars="host=picasaweb.google.com&hl=en_US&feat=flashalbum&RGB=0x000000&feed=https%3A%2F%2Fpicasaweb.google.com%2Fdata%2Ffeed%2Fapi%2Fuser%2FDAugason%2Falbumid%2F5594846985798207825%3Falt%3Drss%26kind%3Dphoto%26hl%3Den_US" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed><br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="https://picasaweb.google.com/s/c/bin/slideshow.swf" width="288" height="192" flashvars="host=picasaweb.google.com&hl=en_US&feat=flashalbum&RGB=0x000000&feed=https%3A%2F%2Fpicasaweb.google.com%2Fdata%2Ffeed%2Fapi%2Fuser%2FDAugason%2Falbumid%2F5601791879119521601%3Falt%3Drss%26kind%3Dphoto%26authkey%3DGv1sRgCN3niqHqq4qp0gE%26hl%3Den_US" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed>Deb Augasonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14879431952402070425noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499272722881420213.post-54205454087124856152011-04-30T15:11:00.000-07:002011-04-30T16:57:22.310-07:00Valentines Day 2011<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEix45yxU0Zh2kZ6vmF3nEtAlLQgNiZNWpb7-_QgajmEy7UtCTpzjwSZGnTtwRMP0vq5t4MOqKR_hAb6fTsWV0GzDtGY_WaKSezOfVsGl7v7gB0jZUNUhDkkuTW6X1enathyJF8x2Z2ydAWC/s1600/IMG_2840.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEix45yxU0Zh2kZ6vmF3nEtAlLQgNiZNWpb7-_QgajmEy7UtCTpzjwSZGnTtwRMP0vq5t4MOqKR_hAb6fTsWV0GzDtGY_WaKSezOfVsGl7v7gB0jZUNUhDkkuTW6X1enathyJF8x2Z2ydAWC/s320/IMG_2840.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601506305763008738" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtszGpaSegZTKBIbnKsvAANNsPsvPTQEhAvUPwSAGNTHSib23vNLQ-_CLKtJ4K6I8owL8q2UL99-0dbKXKxx4mdEtul2YtNQjfwNfECrRcAhQkJd9Mqpi8eit6Vbtm5WY8ksZBCXfbTVUP/s1600/IMG_2842.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtszGpaSegZTKBIbnKsvAANNsPsvPTQEhAvUPwSAGNTHSib23vNLQ-_CLKtJ4K6I8owL8q2UL99-0dbKXKxx4mdEtul2YtNQjfwNfECrRcAhQkJd9Mqpi8eit6Vbtm5WY8ksZBCXfbTVUP/s320/IMG_2842.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601506300782695650" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiubbvwwjB8TOeLp2Z-rX14mtcKfF2c2GglqBneC3GGKWOUHXjuhq-VEyOGDT4yvEo_xyHwegf4S9emSnzbcqQ6Hv-RylDtVlpFP1iPAPt45WLGF7PxQ4jAm76MOM_UIP9B-NCVPtBj43G/s1600/IMG_2837.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiubbvwwjB8TOeLp2Z-rX14mtcKfF2c2GglqBneC3GGKWOUHXjuhq-VEyOGDT4yvEo_xyHwegf4S9emSnzbcqQ6Hv-RylDtVlpFP1iPAPt45WLGF7PxQ4jAm76MOM_UIP9B-NCVPtBj43G/s320/IMG_2837.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601506293774794674" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoVHZyR023UvivdXIzBQIDWQKjM3WeYIbuo2hC6PUSG03CEb4ZW29UAu06lWPzP6ttxUUPrThSIisdsYXWx6bP3pf0RjD_4xG06yGYwhsfPnVcdJ5kKR90AIWXiiyztzuyLvVtM-wiVi09/s1600/IMG_2835.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoVHZyR023UvivdXIzBQIDWQKjM3WeYIbuo2hC6PUSG03CEb4ZW29UAu06lWPzP6ttxUUPrThSIisdsYXWx6bP3pf0RjD_4xG06yGYwhsfPnVcdJ5kKR90AIWXiiyztzuyLvVtM-wiVi09/s320/IMG_2835.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601506289569915042" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzIKRyKTdAJ_rVjiCoaERrHRAN5q_GUx_RERXBcyNaBcfzkPkqYZs97gn1_ht_WBNfYs2hCTDm5BFFbaLI_fV79HQfCuZW6NcQvsycEVe8MwnkEDGvefAheJzNBEzsLkR3ahaA2UU5R4xo/s1600/IMG_2826.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzIKRyKTdAJ_rVjiCoaERrHRAN5q_GUx_RERXBcyNaBcfzkPkqYZs97gn1_ht_WBNfYs2hCTDm5BFFbaLI_fV79HQfCuZW6NcQvsycEVe8MwnkEDGvefAheJzNBEzsLkR3ahaA2UU5R4xo/s320/IMG_2826.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601506285180215010" /></a><br />Dave and Ash went to our annual HOA Daddy Daughter Date night at the community center.

The weather is better and there is lots to do:)...This year the weather was COLD, and WINDY. We still had fun driving to the new Hoover Dam bridge, playing games at Circus Circus and visitng with Mike, Katie and Taylor since they did not come to SLC for Christmas this year.<br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="https://picasaweb.google.com/s/c/bin/slideshow.swf" width="288" height="192" flashvars="host=picasaweb.google.com&hl=en_US&feat=flashalbum&RGB=0x000000&feed=https%3A%2F%2Fpicasaweb.google.com%2Fdata%2Ffeed%2Fapi%2Fuser%2FDAugason%2Falbumid%2F5601500470849142785%3Falt%3Drss%26kind%3Dphoto%26authkey%3DGv1sRgCM68xr2JhYr4Pg%26hl%3Den_US" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed>Deb Augasonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14879431952402070425noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499272722881420213.post-89228580175021423292011-04-30T14:23:00.001-07:002011-04-30T16:57:22.317-07:00Christmas 2010Christmas with both families close by can sometimes be CRAZY. Everybody wants time with us and the kids. We enjoy our families, however I want to start creating memories with just Dave and the girls....our own family traditions. This year we decided that for the 1st time we would stay home on Christmas Eve and just hang out in our PJ's, eat pizza and watch Christmas movies. Brilliant....until Deb got food poisoning. I started throwing up around 4pm and went to bed by 8pm and felt HORRIBLE. So much for our fun family night. Dave, bless him...set up everything for the next morning and was such a help. Thank you honey. By Christmas morning I was fine:) We had both sets of grandparents, Aunt Cathy and Grandma Gertrude up in the morning for breakfast, stockings and PRESENTS! The girls had a great time opening presents...and soon it was time for an afternoon snooze. After nap time we loaded into the car and headed to Dave's parents house for dinner, more presents and poker! We arrived home Christmas night around 11:30pm and happily slept late the next day, and stayed in our jammies all day.<br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="https://picasaweb.google.com/s/c/bin/slideshow.swf" width="288" height="192" flashvars="host=picasaweb.google.com&hl=en_US&feat=flashalbum&RGB=0x000000&feed=https%3A%2F%2Fpicasaweb.google.com%2Fdata%2Ffeed%2Fapi%2Fuser%2FDAugason%2Falbumid%2F5601494282443904481%3Falt%3Drss%26kind%3Dphoto%26authkey%3DGv1sRgCLmD1_vjmsG-Ww%26hl%3Den_US" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed>Deb Augasonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14879431952402070425noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499272722881420213.post-31356787051306065502011-04-30T14:09:00.000-07:002011-04-30T16:57:22.320-07:00Santa 2010We were lucky this year to visit Santa at Photo By Emilie's studio! He was there on a Saturday and we had our own 15 minutes with him while Emilie snapped some pictures. One week later we had a DVD of our pictures for $25 and some excitement for Santa's upcoming visit.<br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="https://picasaweb.google.com/s/c/bin/slideshow.swf" width="288" height="192" flashvars="host=picasaweb.google.com&hl=en_US&feat=flashalbum&RGB=0x000000&feed=https%3A%2F%2Fpicasaweb.google.com%2Fdata%2Ffeed%2Fapi%2Fuser%2FDAugason%2Falbumid%2F5601487585906050593%3Falt%3Drss%26kind%3Dphoto%26authkey%3DGv1sRgCNG6kdKR-ZXU4wE%26hl%3Den_US" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed>Deb Augasonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14879431952402070425noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499272722881420213.post-50837511011319565622011-04-30T13:42:00.000-07:002011-04-30T16:57:22.323-07:00Christmas ActivitiesMy Dad works part time for Heber Valley Railroad, so were were able to ride the Polar Express Train this year during the dress rehearsal night before they open to the public. I bought the girls cute Christmas PJ's and we were off! Unfortunately it was about 45 minutes before the train left for the North Pole and Maddie was over the train seats in about 15 minutes. Even being able to walk around was not enough. We finally pulled out and they immediately brought out cookies and cocoa...a welcome distraction. A few minutes later Santa and Mrs. Claus appeared as we passes the North Pole..another welcome distraction. We stopped to tun the train around and it was downhill from there. Maddie was SO tired and cranky, I was coming down with a fever and a cold, and the train was so hot we had to pull the windows open. We left the train station to go get hamburgers for dinner then loaded everyone up and headed home. Maybe next year will be better:)<br />Ashley had her 1st preschool singing program. It was only 30 minutes long, but she participated really well and sang loudly...maybe Mom's passion for Drama is in her blood:)<br />We had a girls afternoon with Nana and Grandma Gertrude and frosted cookies for Santa right before Christmas. Maddie was more interested in eating the frosting by the handful than decorating. We had some great looking cookies that Santa ate right up Christmas Eve...way to go girls!<br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="https://picasaweb.google.com/s/c/bin/slideshow.swf" width="288" height="192" flashvars="host=picasaweb.google.com&hl=en_US&feat=flashalbum&RGB=0x000000&feed=https%3A%2F%2Fpicasaweb.google.com%2Fdata%2Ffeed%2Fapi%2Fuser%2FDAugason%2Falbumid%2F5601483195447802417%3Falt%3Drss%26kind%3Dphoto%26authkey%3DGv1sRgCNSk5rv8-J2x1AE%26hl%3Den_US" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed>Deb Augasonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14879431952402070425noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499272722881420213.post-32205608315912912762011-04-30T13:31:00.000-07:002011-04-30T16:57:22.326-07:00Thanksgiving<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTI_9ChrtkexlAwxSHrqjBeNIz5ziVDcSZYAg1q8B9Xr9hLa_uXtxAhD550uJ_E3PN_ZTVJmGywNSutnChiLird6s1ctJRLFUqYY-6j70wh5qPfNWwpimKO-pkf5rDtp7bRsSy_4Zx35UG/s1600/Christmas+2010+%252815%2529.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTI_9ChrtkexlAwxSHrqjBeNIz5ziVDcSZYAg1q8B9Xr9hLa_uXtxAhD550uJ_E3PN_ZTVJmGywNSutnChiLird6s1ctJRLFUqYY-6j70wh5qPfNWwpimKO-pkf5rDtp7bRsSy_4Zx35UG/s320/Christmas+2010+%252815%2529.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601490660030604386" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2E4QAs3coBcCoqqgxeZN6vkXUD9KUI-EaDC85w-9C473NCk6rB0sp9eMIkiWA3-j8okga_SEtMuKXt0aLyFfyXNVjfSBpeVnkKSHqhf0J8KiuEstHokJt8rCxYxTKde_0rYvTL0tNxNAw/s1600/Thanksgiving+2010+%25281%2529.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2E4QAs3coBcCoqqgxeZN6vkXUD9KUI-EaDC85w-9C473NCk6rB0sp9eMIkiWA3-j8okga_SEtMuKXt0aLyFfyXNVjfSBpeVnkKSHqhf0J8KiuEstHokJt8rCxYxTKde_0rYvTL0tNxNAw/s320/Thanksgiving+2010+%25281%2529.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601479743424290642" /></a><br />We had a fun weekend with Mike and Katie and Baby Taylor coming up to visit for the long weekend. We ate dinner with Deb's family,then headed to Dave's family. Deb did a little Black Friday shopping, then we met friends for dinner at Cafe Trio without the kiddos. We put the tree up Sunday and, then the weekend was over.Deb Augasonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14879431952402070425noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499272722881420213.post-2938362292272402422011-04-30T12:59:00.000-07:002011-04-30T16:57:22.328-07:00Mickey's Halloween PartyAshley and I were lucky enough to fly down in October and go to the party at Disneyland. We stayed with Aunt Cathy (Dave's sister)and she joined us for the fun. When you buy the $50 event ticket it allows you enter Disneyland 3 hours before the event starts so you can have a little more fun for the price. The party went from 7pm to 12am, so we entered at 4pm. We rode a few rides, had dinner at the Golden Horseshoe, then headed over to Critter Country to get in line for the treats. Right at 7pm the candy lines open and you just wind you way between the candy stations and they give you huge handfuls at every stop. Not crap candy either...snickers, skittles, M&M's,twix...good brand name stuff....by the handful! We watched the special parade, visited with the princesses, then got in line for Mickey and Minnie. Then the fireworks started and so did Ashley's screaming. She has had a fear of fireworks all of her 4 short years, and tonight was no different. I immediate picked her and carried her over to a bench while Cathy waited in line to hold our spot. After 5 minutes of hysterical crying and screaming Ash looks at me and says, "Mom look how beautiful they are...they're not scary." And BAM, we are over our fear of fireworks. She watched the last 10 minutes, then we had our picture with Mickey and Minnie. Ash stayed awake until we left at midnight and fell asleep on the way home, what a trooper! Such a fun Halloween tradition, I hope we can go every year!<br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="https://picasaweb.google.com/s/c/bin/slideshow.swf" width="288" height="192" flashvars="host=picasaweb.google.com&hl=en_US&feat=flashalbum&RGB=0x000000&feed=https%3A%2F%2Fpicasaweb.google.com%2Fdata%2Ffeed%2Fapi%2Fuser%2FDAugason%2Falbumid%2F5601473775229063153%3Falt%3Drss%26kind%3Dphoto%26authkey%3DGv1sRgCJiiqviokenKKQ%26hl%3Den_US" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed>Deb Augasonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14879431952402070425noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499272722881420213.post-46794218838485070492011-04-30T12:41:00.000-07:002011-04-30T16:57:22.331-07:00Halloween 2010We had lots of fun over the 2 day Halloween weekend. We went to Dave's work to trick or treat on Friday. Then we headed over to Atria to visit Grandma Gertrude and Grandpa Bill to trick-or-treat and parade in front of the residents. On Halloween day we made Dave's famous chili and had the grandparents and cousins over for dinner and trick-or-treating. As usual in Utah, it rained Halloween night and was about 42 degrees. We were chilled to the bone by the end of the night, but we had lots of great treats!<br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="https://picasaweb.google.com/s/c/bin/slideshow.swf" width="288" height="192" flashvars="host=picasaweb.google.com&hl=en_US&feat=flashalbum&RGB=0x000000&feed=https%3A%2F%2Fpicasaweb.google.com%2Fdata%2Ffeed%2Fapi%2Fuser%2FDAugason%2Falbumid%2F5601456360323190625%3Falt%3Drss%26kind%3Dphoto%26authkey%3DGv1sRgCPDE-LGcztnHjwE%26hl%3Den_US" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed>Deb Augasonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14879431952402070425noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499272722881420213.post-25536733407537187742011-04-30T10:48:00.003-07:002011-04-30T16:57:22.341-07:00Fall ActivitiesWe did lots of fun things this Fall...my FAVORITE time of year! We saw the leaves in the mountains and hiked. We like to go to Silverlake right next to Brighton Ski Resort. It is beautiful lake with a neat wooden boardwalk that circles it. Makes for easy hiking with little ones who stumble easily. We went to Gardner Village to visit the witches,we also went to Little Haunts a kid friendly Halloween festival at This Is The Place Park. We went through a kids haunted house, heard a story read by a witch, petted baby farm animals, had our faces painted and trick or treated at each of the old historic buildings.<br /><br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="https://picasaweb.google.com/s/c/bin/slideshow.swf" width="288" height="192" flashvars="host=picasaweb.google.com&hl=en_US&feat=flashalbum&RGB=0x000000&feed=https%3A%2F%2Fpicasaweb.google.com%2Fdata%2Ffeed%2Fapi%2Fuser%2FDAugason%2Falbumid%2F5601441420754602929%3Falt%3Drss%26kind%3Dphoto%26authkey%3DGv1sRgCL2q8bnW58DbJw%26hl%3Den_US" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed>Deb Augasonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14879431952402070425noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499272722881420213.post-22152521598622671202011-02-28T15:33:00.000-08:002011-02-28T15:47:52.759-08:00Ashley's 4th birthdayThis year I decided to downsize Ashley's birthday and only invite 3 other kids and their Mom's. It worked really well and it was nice to chat with everyone and not feel totally crazy with chaos. We had the party at Boondocks and we had a blast! We had Ashley's family party at home like we always do. This year she chose a Disney Princess theme...big surprise!<br />The big hit this year was the kid size jeep Dave bought for Ashley. He always wanted one when he was little and now that our red jeep is gone he has a chance to at least make the kids happy:)<br /><div style="width:288px;font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;"><div><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="https://picasaweb.google.com/s/c/bin/slideshow.swf" width="288" height="192" flashvars="host=picasaweb.google.com&hl=en_US&feat=flashalbum&RGB=0x000000&feed=https%3A%2F%2Fpicasaweb.google.com%2Fdata%2Ffeed%2Fapi%2Fuser%2FDAugason%2Falbumid%2F5578889027453390593%3Falt%3Drss%26kind%3Dphoto%26hl%3Den_US" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed></div><span style="float:left;"><a href="https://picasaweb.google.com/DAugason/AshleyS4thBirthday?feat=flashalbum" style="color:#3964c2">View all</a></span><div style="text-align:right;"><a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/getEmbed?feat=flashalbum" style="color:#3964c2">Get your own</a></div></div>Deb Augasonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14879431952402070425noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499272722881420213.post-5094505084817944152011-02-17T17:17:00.000-08:002011-02-17T17:31:48.021-08:00Grandma Gertrude's 98th birthday<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1q6CJYMkhrrOAYt1yd7BfiOvHlMj9DPtbz83OXedYGh-vq-I9gFj307jsPMzaAnqoWTSzg6a58gnS4s5OAo71G-QNuBaHz8SHiouQv6AXV3PzsDd-2t5Gp2qeKKYgVRGdS37X-SyNJwBR/s1600/IMG_2050.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5574836070217369122" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1q6CJYMkhrrOAYt1yd7BfiOvHlMj9DPtbz83OXedYGh-vq-I9gFj307jsPMzaAnqoWTSzg6a58gnS4s5OAo71G-QNuBaHz8SHiouQv6AXV3PzsDd-2t5Gp2qeKKYgVRGdS37X-SyNJwBR/s320/IMG_2050.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUP1pkT0_BnZpaXuTjxBDFOvvyQOKy7-JFmmj7-9oTAgakjiW1ilEz8W4lBPImrpY5k4yGrPuqgoi3wHfGOx-b12xj1WYlthB3p0NXMWWhSzCaCXgF3WAimnIIYJRzpQs3aTGgqzC32Zoo/s1600/IMG_2040.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5574836064976311426" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUP1pkT0_BnZpaXuTjxBDFOvvyQOKy7-JFmmj7-9oTAgakjiW1ilEz8W4lBPImrpY5k4yGrPuqgoi3wHfGOx-b12xj1WYlthB3p0NXMWWhSzCaCXgF3WAimnIIYJRzpQs3aTGgqzC32Zoo/s320/IMG_2040.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiP1lPmg_FFtfSvWCC1tCQVN0u1Qqx2YxNQhCDe6Do0U3Dddg6eT1r9wo7rA3YqXE2nE6ZouN9IFrVyD29ZMgE4m-d35qVk60dAJDCvZiF83k6CSt5w5nAr1pFwQBNMz2ahuejpopQQSbMl/s1600/IMG_2038.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5574836060601260402" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiP1lPmg_FFtfSvWCC1tCQVN0u1Qqx2YxNQhCDe6Do0U3Dddg6eT1r9wo7rA3YqXE2nE6ZouN9IFrVyD29ZMgE4m-d35qVk60dAJDCvZiF83k6CSt5w5nAr1pFwQBNMz2ahuejpopQQSbMl/s320/IMG_2038.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7wnAHzqFbIE1vLJwc77kZwvJ9A4IanqciH_aa8xATohqELARLK_zVZp3A1s1397Ui1bbpx5kLr5oVLSloQP9CQzm2IiL-WDHpOViF9CYsNFu6KerwB_EnuXfkx9UOoMm2rMDiYz8qLi41/s1600/IMG_2027.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5574836057355120322" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7wnAHzqFbIE1vLJwc77kZwvJ9A4IanqciH_aa8xATohqELARLK_zVZp3A1s1397Ui1bbpx5kLr5oVLSloQP9CQzm2IiL-WDHpOViF9CYsNFu6KerwB_EnuXfkx9UOoMm2rMDiYz8qLi41/s320/IMG_2027.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div>We are so fortunate to have Deb's Grandmother living in SLC now. She lives at Atria in Sandy. By coincidence two of my old AXO girlfriends also have family at Atria Sandy AND Dave's Grandpa Bill moved there as well. It is a wonderful facility that gives elderly people the option to live in an assisted living situation or have their own apartment with different levels of help. I highly recommend this place if anybody is ever in need to find new housing for a loved one! Anyway we celebrated Grandma's 98th birthday this year, so exciting. We had a lovely dinner at my Mom's <span style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00">house</span> and my Uncle Scott ( Grandma's son) and his wife Lucy came out from New Jersey to celebrate with us. The only people we really missed were Craig and Ian who are too far away in London:(</div></div></div></div>Deb Augasonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14879431952402070425noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499272722881420213.post-81113862799230195822011-02-17T17:10:00.001-08:002011-02-17T17:17:22.013-08:00Ashley starts preschool!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_DazJAolCP4JeDw97J0eDCpvXJCGVdSXe7zoHqKejz4UA61maR4A3ONpfjDfie1MtwcIMmIq6HbugndLfEs2wUNMUjVgcbHbKxwdZhIUHBkr8uIeA9c-xXMuoKWw93GhhTwJKwHPp1rDK/s1600/IMG_1924.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5574832209520608546" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_DazJAolCP4JeDw97J0eDCpvXJCGVdSXe7zoHqKejz4UA61maR4A3ONpfjDfie1MtwcIMmIq6HbugndLfEs2wUNMUjVgcbHbKxwdZhIUHBkr8uIeA9c-xXMuoKWw93GhhTwJKwHPp1rDK/s320/IMG_1924.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBvCcByXewS0bE5M42aKqldZOTboN2dm209TNmwMRLuhY-aiVsq11pbWpEwIgZsOemuYBmeb0nuR5JFRetG_lsVPkXcUV5HsJAgnupTP99WV-wPlrgXS8acg52Q24iYaIFrgnQ603acdvJ/s1600/IMG_1917.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5574832204477618754" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBvCcByXewS0bE5M42aKqldZOTboN2dm209TNmwMRLuhY-aiVsq11pbWpEwIgZsOemuYBmeb0nuR5JFRetG_lsVPkXcUV5HsJAgnupTP99WV-wPlrgXS8acg52Q24iYaIFrgnQ603acdvJ/s320/IMG_1917.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div>Ashley is starting preschool this year.

The trip over started with our flight from SLC to JFK. The in seat entertainment was broken...no kids cartoons. So I tried Go Go wireless on the laptop, it would stream for 15 minutes then stop for 15 minutes....aaargh. 5 hours, no kids movies, no nap. Flight from JFK to LHR. Ash falls asleep right after we take off. I mistakenly wake her when dinner arrives. All hell breaks loose, LOUD wailing, crying " I want to go home" " I want my own bed" " I don't want to go to London". One hour later still getting stares from other passengers...are you going to shut your child up anytime soon??? I finally lie to Ash and tell her that I will have the pilot turn the plane around and when she wakes up we will be back in SLC. We eat, she watches cartoons, we are only 3 hours from London and she only slept a total of 2 hours. I give her some Dramamine and she is out. I wake her when we arrive at LHR. More crying, wailing etc. " Hold me Mommy pleaseeeeee!" " I am so tired...my legs don't work!" We stand in the Customs line for 40 minutes before a kind Immigration Officer comes and pulls us to the front of the line. I think the other 700 people were tired of listening to her. Disaster.<br />Time change ended up not bothering her at all. In bed every night by 8pm, up at 8am no naps, just like home...aaaah:) My brother Craig cooked me wonderful meals every day. I drank wine with every dinner. Never had to wash dishes..I didn't want to come home:) We went to Legoland, rode the double decker bus, the tube, went to the playground everyday, the Sea Life Aquarium, visited Ian's sister and her family, visited Mark's Spencer Department Store and much more. Craig and Ian were great hosts and I can't wait to go back...perhaps just with Dave next time:)<br />We left one week later, flew from LHR to JFK. As we came closer to JFK to pilot announced were were going into a holding pattern...okay.....2 hours later "Well folks were are low on fuel so we are diverting to Newark to refuel, then we'll get new paper work and head back to JFK....thanks for your patience." Well we had a 3 1/2 hour layover in JFK....so much for that.<br />About 90% of the airplane missed their connection, we were all stranded until the next morning. Ash fell asleep again 20 minutes before we landed and I had to wake her up to get off the plane. More crying, more wailing....oh God here we go again. Yet again, the Customs Officials saved us by bringing us to the front of the line. I think the other 300 passengers were very grateful. We all shuffled over to Terminal 4 to find a comfy couch or bench. Once I had Ash settled she fell asleep immediately. 30 minutes later I felt so awful, nauseous, sweaty, yuck. I spent the next 4 hours running to the bathroom to vomit. Fortunately, I was next to lovely ladies from England who were willing to watch over Ash and our luggage, while I ran to the bathroom. They were true guardian angels.<br />Below is our slide show from London.<br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="https://picasaweb.google.com/s/c/bin/slideshow.swf" width="288" height="192" flashvars="host=picasaweb.google.com&hl=en_US&feat=flashalbum&RGB=0x000000&feed=https%3A%2F%2Fpicasaweb.google.com%2Fdata%2Ffeed%2Fapi%2Fuser%2FDAugason%2Falbumid%2F5539504394942703041%3Falt%3Drss%26kind%3Dphoto%26hl%3Den_US" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed>Deb Augasonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14879431952402070425noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499272722881420213.post-20370234892554584062010-11-13T16:48:00.000-08:002010-11-16T12:54:08.846-08:00Legoland<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqX9_fzuuAaSoHnEwmyYv-KkczLB6BBK5TBCL3C8z40QTo-m9MZN01aIuKzOZ0KiVuiknXElUu8cG6x8OpAX3Wzbz97FFIXPi22kfkNetCfNW_v3QcP8999fSD8YWr_2sCTgJ6xGkk7vrT/s1600/Legoland+Aug+2010+%252822%2529.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539205171055162482" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqX9_fzuuAaSoHnEwmyYv-KkczLB6BBK5TBCL3C8z40QTo-m9MZN01aIuKzOZ0KiVuiknXElUu8cG6x8OpAX3Wzbz97FFIXPi22kfkNetCfNW_v3QcP8999fSD8YWr_2sCTgJ6xGkk7vrT/s320/Legoland+Aug+2010+%252822%2529.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqLGHgY-f_DPanyj1Ohr8U6AYhH7MQPqSnuoUb0ao1w9UvEyHQkGpDqStfKR3VZ4LA6UC3krhf_mptNMRUuwc2CfU36fPc5Tc4CMFLGNPVJdg4l63bPBvIRh5VyQ6Yg-waavoFVC36gb5t/s1600/Legoland+Aug+2010+%252827%2529.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539205165361722146" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqLGHgY-f_DPanyj1Ohr8U6AYhH7MQPqSnuoUb0ao1w9UvEyHQkGpDqStfKR3VZ4LA6UC3krhf_mptNMRUuwc2CfU36fPc5Tc4CMFLGNPVJdg4l63bPBvIRh5VyQ6Yg-waavoFVC36gb5t/s320/Legoland+Aug+2010+%252827%2529.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6CGBm3zaRz-31PnMjlCuke0un33JjPmqBZGRG-tiN-YCnmvAttyQgwNnHZTxO4cMZGV-2i-UoT3KPguwmmhn9SCk3fc0bW20CRDHEqk0D78_kXNgyATU4Cqr3G4dOam57-ZvDOBM8-SEW/s1600/Legoland+Aug+2010+%252818%2529.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539205157130458386" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6CGBm3zaRz-31PnMjlCuke0un33JjPmqBZGRG-tiN-YCnmvAttyQgwNnHZTxO4cMZGV-2i-UoT3KPguwmmhn9SCk3fc0bW20CRDHEqk0D78_kXNgyATU4Cqr3G4dOam57-ZvDOBM8-SEW/s320/Legoland+Aug+2010+%252818%2529.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvkd1Fg4kD4n9hsjEpj14JLO_zqyLSGohHpnAejI2Yx2APgzRjusVwnAb5Cn-4FqsVX0McpIcHpTXehFQhszMYQ2phTf0PIvp-44vfqzu98pj379rHwIet0nbl1rs5MSmwk7hdznP11c9V/s1600/Legoland+Aug+2010+%25288%2529.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539205146579136130" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvkd1Fg4kD4n9hsjEpj14JLO_zqyLSGohHpnAejI2Yx2APgzRjusVwnAb5Cn-4FqsVX0McpIcHpTXehFQhszMYQ2phTf0PIvp-44vfqzu98pj379rHwIet0nbl1rs5MSmwk7hdznP11c9V/s320/Legoland+Aug+2010+%25288%2529.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgfjIJNU-Kf69Qc3u-KJfrVhXbR10L0q4qdjfW82Fyyjtu-l3-1H-4gjtpxXbw1uLbLfEsoL4GNE9pAOAsybAge_GePnvTmJ3Y48FTTTE4KNJ-xtY1xPxwaoEgk_qaiFlOJN-4bDHBgqnt/s1600/Legoland+Aug+2010+%25282%2529.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539205141779266002" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgfjIJNU-Kf69Qc3u-KJfrVhXbR10L0q4qdjfW82Fyyjtu-l3-1H-4gjtpxXbw1uLbLfEsoL4GNE9pAOAsybAge_GePnvTmJ3Y48FTTTE4KNJ-xtY1xPxwaoEgk_qaiFlOJN-4bDHBgqnt/s320/Legoland+Aug+2010+%25282%2529.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div>At the end of August I bid for a long (24 hour) overnight in Orange County, CA. It was over a weekend and the plan was to bring along Dave and the girls and visit Aunt Cathy (Dave's sister). After a horendous flight with Madison screaming for freedom, we arrived to sunny 72 degree weather. We piled into Cathy's car and headed to Legoland for some fun! After yucky traffic and a 2 hour drive to go 50 miles, we arrived. The rides are perfect for small kids and waits were not to bad for a Saturday. We left when the park closed at 8pm and both girls quickly fell asleep....sweet silence:) We stopped for gas right next to the hotel and Cathy's car battery died. She had it towed in the morning and all was well. Maddie still screamed on the flight home...just not as long as the way over. She is officially banned from airplane travel until she is two...unless she is traveling with Nana and Papa...they can have her:)</div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div></div>Deb Augasonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14879431952402070425noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499272722881420213.post-16491552694604997262010-11-13T16:17:00.001-08:002010-11-13T16:47:31.362-08:00Katie's Baby Shower<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQ92TnifEj0CVeFaH6PXP8ESRuXpTK1JUrcD_0Utq5uuTICdnPNrGIMEPNuONEH_oLuxqW0iwwEQf1_jRTnls16-IHpgST58Y7zSnNwtiE64aPXagkwDYWPSSfIUT8VIyJpBGp8p52qHf9/s1600/Katie%2527s+baby+shower+%252828%2529.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539198960317400786" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQ92TnifEj0CVeFaH6PXP8ESRuXpTK1JUrcD_0Utq5uuTICdnPNrGIMEPNuONEH_oLuxqW0iwwEQf1_jRTnls16-IHpgST58Y7zSnNwtiE64aPXagkwDYWPSSfIUT8VIyJpBGp8p52qHf9/s320/Katie%2527s+baby+shower+%252828%2529.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIfTFkDjr9AQLH7f1N79oUCpRZz1H8k0FCH6P3_3TPuostIpTFJ72ihk6kCroXVtMKzYViw1JPPModMvtDaKVlGj1OhHyUW5AstWkuOwqtSKdurMrb9U6kSdxAVzj1u6g4shPy9Y3M2xfX/s1600/Katie%2527s+baby+shower+%252827%2529.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539198956839048034" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIfTFkDjr9AQLH7f1N79oUCpRZz1H8k0FCH6P3_3TPuostIpTFJ72ihk6kCroXVtMKzYViw1JPPModMvtDaKVlGj1OhHyUW5AstWkuOwqtSKdurMrb9U6kSdxAVzj1u6g4shPy9Y3M2xfX/s320/Katie%2527s+baby+shower+%252827%2529.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizNqAfNgooR2QgEFiu5MbDCPYBz8zFC8FH8hPGESF2HVj7gSb41MnFr7U7j5-y0OGvD0ScjmjxWbQIibkQDBJCNOiz1V-X85uKes7mwEF1ITWMw6HzSyfrvHD-5P0ItlxQUA7s9L1BC3ay/s1600/Katie%2527s+baby+shower+%252825%2529.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539198952131788178" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizNqAfNgooR2QgEFiu5MbDCPYBz8zFC8FH8hPGESF2HVj7gSb41MnFr7U7j5-y0OGvD0ScjmjxWbQIibkQDBJCNOiz1V-X85uKes7mwEF1ITWMw6HzSyfrvHD-5P0ItlxQUA7s9L1BC3ay/s320/Katie%2527s+baby+shower+%252825%2529.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhW2oP6MfxyVz3HQBZQQX3miyP3XOpi6zQUUWfUEWUUqwBWN-9yB8JDoEWTL2Fq5e9NybmC3sNYRPyDiaikqqoY9KB-ZFxzxtBlVl7uHrUUQ9cMCsCk3AyRDGU9D39wQ1QCxrf4wdjy9po_/s1600/Katie%2527s+baby+shower+%252821%2529.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539198943055855282" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhW2oP6MfxyVz3HQBZQQX3miyP3XOpi6zQUUWfUEWUUqwBWN-9yB8JDoEWTL2Fq5e9NybmC3sNYRPyDiaikqqoY9KB-ZFxzxtBlVl7uHrUUQ9cMCsCk3AyRDGU9D39wQ1QCxrf4wdjy9po_/s320/Katie%2527s+baby+shower+%252821%2529.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYEyMKBs3IXgA5pWG-TwasZIXsy6H7rNwR2lHkn4xklbbSDV2ZJrKslURkdG8g2BIuaZ6R_neoY4a5YYGllCjOw3IozZsMdibOl9KxukiMUrhGYdZkhNs0I4gwfL6xKj5ENJvZxBMDVYI2/s1600/Katie%2527s+baby+shower+%25285%2529.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539198936018861826" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYEyMKBs3IXgA5pWG-TwasZIXsy6H7rNwR2lHkn4xklbbSDV2ZJrKslURkdG8g2BIuaZ6R_neoY4a5YYGllCjOw3IozZsMdibOl9KxukiMUrhGYdZkhNs0I4gwfL6xKj5ENJvZxBMDVYI2/s320/Katie%2527s+baby+shower+%25285%2529.JPG" /></a><br />Back in June I hosted a baby shower for my fabulous sister in law Katie. She lives in Vegas so she came up for the weekend and we had the shower on Saturday the 19th. We had a great turn out of family and friends. Baby Taylor was born September 20th 2010, more pics of her later! We are excited to have a new cousin in the family, we love you!<br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div></div>Deb Augasonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14879431952402070425noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499272722881420213.post-88096779884087145932010-08-25T13:02:00.000-07:002010-08-25T13:06:45.727-07:00MoneyThis is a tough subject for many. We are spending around $1,000/month for food, gas, clothes and toiletries, diapers, cleaning supplies etc. Dave thinks it is too much. I want to know what everybody else spends per month and see if I am really overspending or we are about the same. If you feel comfortable leaving a comment for me privately I'd love some feedback on what your house spends...if not that's okay...Dave and I will still argue every month about who is right:)Deb Augasonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14879431952402070425noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499272722881420213.post-31492878121528008802010-08-25T12:35:00.000-07:002010-08-25T13:02:23.035-07:00Just a few random thoughtsI very rarely blog about everyday life, but hey maybe someone out there wants to hear about it. Ash says funny things right now.." Mom don't step on cracks they break your back" She really does avoid every crack on the ground.. "Mom watch out for the muddles ( muddy puddles)" " Mom does she have ammonia (pneumonia)?" " Mom you are sooo beautiful" not funny but downright touching:)<br />Life has been a bit crazy with Ash starting preschool last week. She is in heaven and barely says goodbye as she bolts out of the car. She seems to be enjoying it so far and it is great for me to have some alone time with Maddie. I started Little Gym with Maddie yesterday, we are going to the same location I went to with Ash. The teacher, Mr. Braden is AWESOME and I think it is great for the kids to see a male role model for a change in this type of setting. I was practically in tears watching Maddie run around for an hour climbing on everything and smiling and giggling...she was so happy!!! Teething in my house has been rough the last 2 months. We are not giving her the binky like we did with Ashley to get through the day. Maddie only gets it at nap and bedtime...therefore my life is pretty much a scream fest all day long as she gnaws on her fist and even bites herself so hard she cries louder!!! Maddie is a screamer and I'm at my wits end!! Is it because she is the 2nd child and Ash picks on her all day or is it just Satan in my cute child's body and she has no control???<br />Here is a quick run down of our typical day on school days. I get up at 6:30am to shower and get ready, wake up ash at 7:15am, get her dressed, brush teeth and do hair ( but not like the Grinch she says..). Then I get Maddie up and dressed. We go downstairs, heat up 2 sippy cups of milk and feed the dog. We eat breakfast quickly so we can leave by 8:15am. I pick up Ash at 11:30am and we usually run one errand and get lunch somewhere. Maddie falls asleep on the drive home and I put her in her crib. She doesn't transfer well so she wakes up and plays until 2 or 2:30 pm then falls asleep again. I put Ash in her room to play quietly and watch a DVD while I nap for an hour and do any computer stuff I need to. Both girls out of room by 4pm. We have a snack and then I force them to go outside in the backyard while I start dinner. Some days they play really well outside together, other days they scream and cry every 5 minutes over toys. I feed the girls and eat with them around 5:30 or 6pm. Dave is home around 6:30-6:45pm. He entertains Maddie while I clean up the days dishes and load the dishwasher. I no longer do the dishes after every meal. I stack them during the day on the counter and load them all after dinner...this helps me feel like I'm not doing dishes all day in the kitchen. After cleaning up it's time to get the girls ready for bed around 7:30pm. Ash goes right down at 8pm now that we have cut out her nap. If your 3 year old fusses at bed time and doesn't go to sleep until 10pm it is time to give up the nap...I promise you that 1 week of cranky transition is worth it!!! By 10pm I am DONE for the day and go to bed to read for a few minutes before it's off to la la land.Deb Augasonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14879431952402070425noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499272722881420213.post-13388702101702906962010-08-13T09:31:00.000-07:002010-08-13T09:42:05.674-07:00Swim lessons<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjP-KQfu2WthrIxq6EBp2wB20HOFRnlsbaaxm_esvXavf_4chLgXh7TRekQIcOL-smgROFyNMUPg2ZkwBfSSpkotsjSIbO57XBWTvHGfIKDp4DX7_wqubh1SbfLsKsBm-vzPF4_-QZdMcgo/s1600/IMG_1802.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5504935639730137442" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjP-KQfu2WthrIxq6EBp2wB20HOFRnlsbaaxm_esvXavf_4chLgXh7TRekQIcOL-smgROFyNMUPg2ZkwBfSSpkotsjSIbO57XBWTvHGfIKDp4DX7_wqubh1SbfLsKsBm-vzPF4_-QZdMcgo/s320/IMG_1802.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEip0Owy4MyTsrySnfMaWykzFL8WAsol6pf7Las4GS0WADcbAHzpMSqxfEkZ16keIhpKnflWgVtrC20dPgBrGibaJCawlaRlLD3BLEk2r6SKDWGJTHlq50A1JdShOoE1sIAYH1E9hPSz0UgX/s1600/IMG_1795.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5504935634585350146" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEip0Owy4MyTsrySnfMaWykzFL8WAsol6pf7Las4GS0WADcbAHzpMSqxfEkZ16keIhpKnflWgVtrC20dPgBrGibaJCawlaRlLD3BLEk2r6SKDWGJTHlq50A1JdShOoE1sIAYH1E9hPSz0UgX/s320/IMG_1795.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div>This summer has lots of fun new activities for including swim lessons! We booked private lessons with Walkers Swim Kids, a company many of my friends have used. It's not cheap but we went 3 times per week for a month and 12 lessons later Ash is no longer fearful of putting her face underwater or floating on her back! She cried hard the first 2 lessons and screamed for me but I just turned the other way and by the third lesson she was over her fears. She even jumped off the diving board during a few lessons. I wanted to continue another 12 lessons but it is expensive and time consuming to do 3 lessons per week. We'll have to continue next year, then Maddie can do some lessons at the same time.</div><br /><br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dw8qp9MrPLaTcHWDt60i9OpDPQ7olGykqZNYIKyq7VsgFO_xrqcVnAPxBSaQirrDgzXmb6E34Q_EQo4p3yi6Q' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div>Deb Augasonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14879431952402070425noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499272722881420213.post-78842161547901485502010-08-13T08:53:00.001-07:002010-08-13T09:31:30.095-07:004th of July fun<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNRc5QWPM8YS1Hn_DOfsg0X8CjN4JlZug2hQwE1FaZuOorFuCVAvTyFh9edIgYVjHHHdh2NzSbccydoaFesNB38yg8zkDSW-263U4q3rrWuKvU0FpUO68OCqsJDNBdTrG37xG42_VbYcL4/s1600/IMG_1781.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5504932836899226274" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNRc5QWPM8YS1Hn_DOfsg0X8CjN4JlZug2hQwE1FaZuOorFuCVAvTyFh9edIgYVjHHHdh2NzSbccydoaFesNB38yg8zkDSW-263U4q3rrWuKvU0FpUO68OCqsJDNBdTrG37xG42_VbYcL4/s320/IMG_1781.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdf5xOnlPTlGyzoweKcC8jyx-vzwkykWvHqnrHDjeNh2pICg8jTdEY0PDRjlRZ2maiug2CleSY8Xa5E75McSVzuWE93cGYEObDlLCG9oYFnoIk3oku6S4b5iqPZiY7F935COmKmGblBHdu/s1600/IMG_1784.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5504932682806757330" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdf5xOnlPTlGyzoweKcC8jyx-vzwkykWvHqnrHDjeNh2pICg8jTdEY0PDRjlRZ2maiug2CleSY8Xa5E75McSVzuWE93cGYEObDlLCG9oYFnoIk3oku6S4b5iqPZiY7F935COmKmGblBHdu/s320/IMG_1784.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqyrRKvGiLGUsK1QIsW6Shfc7Ef75601gyjdT78pQfvebkFi9K6eqDl2ogT3lsjUXq7m2lxBnz4ZtDJCrF_8R9tRpNKC8XBR_b6Drv04GrbBlSJgXggmsAatY3IpTNTygwlhyphenhyphenvzqPw7Kuk/s1600/IMG_1779.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5504932448099404034" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqyrRKvGiLGUsK1QIsW6Shfc7Ef75601gyjdT78pQfvebkFi9K6eqDl2ogT3lsjUXq7m2lxBnz4ZtDJCrF_8R9tRpNKC8XBR_b6Drv04GrbBlSJgXggmsAatY3IpTNTygwlhyphenhyphenvzqPw7Kuk/s320/IMG_1779.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhex6TEt1sArSmc33YbBdRGIWva0rK3JDAX-QOPvvZxmiOMR2-vs_zmN7bRyJ5-AS0vVaqoBDupLePrqBIWpQ-jdAHclEn1RzkBbGL7XFxCcJX9z1ljPtaGfF3-ZAGwkuKGhi3foBC6sohy/s1600/IMG_1751.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5504932275227139074" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhex6TEt1sArSmc33YbBdRGIWva0rK3JDAX-QOPvvZxmiOMR2-vs_zmN7bRyJ5-AS0vVaqoBDupLePrqBIWpQ-jdAHclEn1RzkBbGL7XFxCcJX9z1ljPtaGfF3-ZAGwkuKGhi3foBC6sohy/s320/IMG_1751.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnNvOK-hL7tsI0VXKzpfOsvI7d5PwLXO9qnGUs3bW3qxZiJGEHfeulgIqrV4RizrbXw2SHiYckBKBRtEhGvk6Za8vdcfXJ5tgIoPSZ46-VP4xlqySdx8iJfDX2hSwPFc7cMppaGNwbuLUb/s1600/IMG_1741.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5504932120418965026" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnNvOK-hL7tsI0VXKzpfOsvI7d5PwLXO9qnGUs3bW3qxZiJGEHfeulgIqrV4RizrbXw2SHiYckBKBRtEhGvk6Za8vdcfXJ5tgIoPSZ46-VP4xlqySdx8iJfDX2hSwPFc7cMppaGNwbuLUb/s320/IMG_1741.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div>Well we did our annual trip to Jackson Hole this year for the 4th of July. My bright idea was to use our flight benefits and fly up to Idaho Falls both ways and have Dave pick us up there instead of spending 4 hours in the car with kids. The flight is only 30 minutes and the girls slept both ways. It is only another hour and a half to our condo in Driggs where we stay each year. I love free flight benefits:) The bad news about the trip is that both girls had bad colds and were pretty cranky the whole trip. The first night was very sleepless as Maddie could not be consoled not matter what. Ash kept saying "Mommy tell her to stop crying I'm tired!" We did manage to swim one day and ride the chairlift at Grand Targhee. We also did our annual hike at Jenny Lake to the waterfall, it is so pretty! The day of the 4th we went to Jackson to picnic and watch the fireworks. Maddie was dead asleep when they started but woke up and giggled and pointed. Maddie loved it......Ashley is still afraid. She didn't cry this time but she had earplugs in and sat with her eyes closed on my lap the whole time. We are making progress!</div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div></div>Deb Augasonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14879431952402070425noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499272722881420213.post-83315002658001823172010-06-29T14:57:00.001-07:002010-06-29T15:22:16.476-07:00Maddie's BELATED birthday pics<div style="BORDER-BOTTOM: medium none; TEXT-ALIGN: center; BORDER-LEFT: medium none; CLEAR: both; BORDER-TOP: medium none; BORDER-RIGHT: medium none" class="separator"><a style="MARGIN-LEFT: 1em; MARGIN-RIGHT: 1em" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWdYI-hb0wIgXESCY1xZqyC0FhAFTKQGnzaaaUtCDpPuDs5JLyi_G4QOhqICA2KwUTBlW3Y8YuXTrufTejePnIWaZ2lJG5zqmtpeafsPBzOBQKBGIoTac0g8PFyMgfVBK63jr2gwO1rXVF/s1600/IMG_1450.JPG" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWdYI-hb0wIgXESCY1xZqyC0FhAFTKQGnzaaaUtCDpPuDs5JLyi_G4QOhqICA2KwUTBlW3Y8YuXTrufTejePnIWaZ2lJG5zqmtpeafsPBzOBQKBGIoTac0g8PFyMgfVBK63jr2gwO1rXVF/s320/IMG_1450.JPG" ru="true" /></a><a style="MARGIN-LEFT: 1em; MARGIN-RIGHT: 1em" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEio_6qJMzzZNlDWSR0R5IKO-7N9LVquMZngnHeuYdvyDwG2UmJXGekc2UeyAAoMcfIAP-d3J9MynvYIc6jP5RYNVv7V3sXNaWngCNVd7AsWfHtIE44q0boxvRsu8rLQK-MZ8CytWYl0zGTh/s1600/IMG_1474.JPG" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEio_6qJMzzZNlDWSR0R5IKO-7N9LVquMZngnHeuYdvyDwG2UmJXGekc2UeyAAoMcfIAP-d3J9MynvYIc6jP5RYNVv7V3sXNaWngCNVd7AsWfHtIE44q0boxvRsu8rLQK-MZ8CytWYl0zGTh/s320/IMG_1474.JPG" ru="true" /></a><a style="MARGIN-LEFT: 1em; MARGIN-RIGHT: 1em" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLvzZw1dwzhl0yRAaXVNCvWPt1HaISwjfxbMn25gEBd-C14CmRMHtaqg0dvxcDQJYYlvQNj8hfkdc1AZtmmDpDlJpj1QZzMvayfzjpozA_yFKZvlZ5s10dB1GZ-yfkb6PZWBz87cZ6_JpH/s1600/IMG_1496.JPG" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLvzZw1dwzhl0yRAaXVNCvWPt1HaISwjfxbMn25gEBd-C14CmRMHtaqg0dvxcDQJYYlvQNj8hfkdc1AZtmmDpDlJpj1QZzMvayfzjpozA_yFKZvlZ5s10dB1GZ-yfkb6PZWBz87cZ6_JpH/s320/IMG_1496.JPG" ru="true" /></a></div><div style="BORDER-BOTTOM: medium none; TEXT-ALIGN: center; BORDER-LEFT: medium none; CLEAR: both; BORDER-TOP: medium none; BORDER-RIGHT: medium none" class="separator"><a style="MARGIN-LEFT: 1em; MARGIN-RIGHT: 1em" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEit8LP1JmazVSaYPxEkslwEgHIOXWUFqjc0Do7SHY3h4NSpxcaszJk1Ct9qY1xlQrXIhYaJWKTnz7JALz4kzDKY4VsHrmebsS7pdUBBl_NmDG8idGy4IsZgkBkOKfvRPXEYDkME0iu0outC/s1600/IMG_1503.JPG" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEit8LP1JmazVSaYPxEkslwEgHIOXWUFqjc0Do7SHY3h4NSpxcaszJk1Ct9qY1xlQrXIhYaJWKTnz7JALz4kzDKY4VsHrmebsS7pdUBBl_NmDG8idGy4IsZgkBkOKfvRPXEYDkME0iu0outC/s320/IMG_1503.JPG" ru="true" /></a></div><div style="BORDER-BOTTOM: medium none; TEXT-ALIGN: center; BORDER-LEFT: medium none; CLEAR: both; BORDER-TOP: medium none; BORDER-RIGHT: medium none" class="separator"><a style="MARGIN-LEFT: 1em; MARGIN-RIGHT: 1em" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrc-eJWrDi_bvnVG3ZytyF95wzMeY1mYejf_kXqX0DRXUQ2915NBE7pr5QMAOZRFC8RP2BuZUJ4rVtaZkzIa8p9ZtDBUlVTAoILWfkWV7lqjUoO8lhr4sQ1haOQkbifEoMS0HVxepmQ_Wo/s1600/IMG_1504.JPG" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrc-eJWrDi_bvnVG3ZytyF95wzMeY1mYejf_kXqX0DRXUQ2915NBE7pr5QMAOZRFC8RP2BuZUJ4rVtaZkzIa8p9ZtDBUlVTAoILWfkWV7lqjUoO8lhr4sQ1haOQkbifEoMS0HVxepmQ_Wo/s320/IMG_1504.JPG" ru="true" /></a></div><div style="BORDER-BOTTOM: medium none; TEXT-ALIGN: center; BORDER-LEFT: medium none; CLEAR: both; BORDER-TOP: medium none; BORDER-RIGHT: medium none" class="separator"><a style="MARGIN-LEFT: 1em; MARGIN-RIGHT: 1em" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZk6pRtR5mqmnFI1d5ysz-DTBNCpGcaR9A7emIkpxfKDvH0ZvCbt6Hb2t2lwJ9XKvhm8Dbj5YZjWeiqqPbm75sqLGJN-k_iaCUPT1jZNqT4mhS4gZ7d4xka2breJWVMd7G0OmyH41H7tKm/s1600/IMG_1517.JPG" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZk6pRtR5mqmnFI1d5ysz-DTBNCpGcaR9A7emIkpxfKDvH0ZvCbt6Hb2t2lwJ9XKvhm8Dbj5YZjWeiqqPbm75sqLGJN-k_iaCUPT1jZNqT4mhS4gZ7d4xka2breJWVMd7G0OmyH41H7tKm/s320/IMG_1517.JPG" ru="true" /></a></div><div style="BORDER-BOTTOM: medium none; BORDER-LEFT: medium none; BORDER-TOP: medium none; BORDER-RIGHT: medium none">I know that she turned one on March 24th...however life gets busy and I'd still like to have a record of it on the blog.
