Happy Anniversary Babe!

Happy "4" Year Anniversary Jordan! I love You! Thanks for being a great catch!

Girly Girl

Annissa is such a girly girl. She loves to dress up, put on mommy's make-up, go shopping, and accessorize.







Oh, and she loves to look at herself in the mirror.

San Francisco

Last weekend we went to San Francisco with Jordan's work. It was beautiful! We had so much fun. Jordan had a golf tournament with the Firm the day after arriving, so Nissa and I headed out shopping with our friends. The shopping is to die for. The food is delicious. And there is so much to see.

The Golden Gate Bridge

Beautiful!

Crossing the Golden Gate Bridge. We turned back about half way, because it was so cold and windy.
Fisherman's Wharf was so much fun. There are sea lions that pose on the wood platforms for all the tourists to take pictures. Nissa thought they were stinky, but very cool.
She did not want to leave the sea lions.

We also went to Ghirardelli Square. We meet some friends for dinner and ate overlooking the beautiful San Francisco Bay.

The trip was wonderful!

Silly Girl

Annissa and I were very excited to have Pop and Mumma come to Denver. They came for my aunt Cathy's funeral. We all drove to Fountain on Saturday morning. After attending a beautiful funeral, we went and had lunch at my aunt Cathy's friends house. They had horses and Nissa loved watching and feeding them.

In Loving Memory

On Sunday, July 6th, my dear aunt Cathy returned home to our Heavenly Father. Aunt Cathy was the perfect angel. She was kind, loving, and the most Christlike person I know. She was always looking out for everyone. I love my Aunt Cathy. She will be greatly missed.

Our Fun Weekend

Kristy and Maddie flew in on Thursday night. On Friday, we headed over to the beautiful Denver Botanic Gardens. They were amazing! They had a children's garden. In this garden they had a Mulberry tree with deck flooring and two butterfly chairs. It was beautiful. Every little girl needs a Mulberry tree to play in.

This garden was beautiful too. All of the gardens were just gorgeous. The Denver Botanic Gardens is a must see when you come to Denver.

The rest of Day 1 was spent at the fabulous Cherry Creek Mall.

Day 2- The Denver Zoo

Freddy O. joined us for our little adventures on Saturday night after his bike ride. This picture was taken on Sunday morning before church. Thanks for the cute Sunday dress.

A big thank you for coming and visiting. We had a wonderful time!

Potty Training

From the time that Annissa was 15 months old, she has shown interest in using the potty. She used the potty quite a bit.

(15 months)

She loves sitting on her potty reading books.

Now 18 months old!

Last week, Annissa and I started training. She was so excited to run around in training pants with flowers and bugs on them. We had some accidents, and we had some success. We are going to take our time and work with her each day to have her use the potty. She recognizes when she needs to go and will either show me the sign for toilet or run to the bathroom.

Here she is sitting on her potty.

The potty training adventure has begun!
