I've Been Everywhere, Man

In Sarah's sweet 4 months of life she has traveled quite a few places. Being the creative mom that i am i thought it would be just adorable to take a picture of her in the overhead bin of one of our aircraft - Sarah obviously didn't subscribe to my genius idea.

I am such a super mom! (insert sarcastic voice here)

Sarah's Passport:
Pittsburgh, PA
Chicago, IL
St. Louis, MO
Albuquerque, NM
Salt Lake City, UT
Denver, CO
& of course Dallas, TX!
Did i mention Jim works for an airline?

We just returned to Texas after a wonderful trip to Utah to visit our families. We had a ball and Sarah experienced quite a few firsts - here are a few of my favorites.

FIRST SNOW

PROFESSIONAL PICTURES
(ok, so if you were there you know this wasn't actually my
favorite - seriously, why are pictures so stressful?)

Sarah's cousins Bridger and Colter Butters & Sophie, Karsten & Mac Newey

She is the sweetest little girl

What a ham!

GREAT-GRANDMA WAKEFIELD
Jim's mom's, mom

This was really a sweet moment - Grandma didn't take her eyes of
Sarah for a second even just to snap a few pictures!

THE LARSEN'S

Alan, Jennifer and Riley Nickerson, Grandpa Staff Larsen,
Sarah & Jim, Uncle Fatty (Matt!) and Kevin Knickerson

After seeing Kiddie Kandids work their magic
Mom and I thought we could do just as good of job - here is what we came up with!

More fun pic's from the trip

SOPHIE FINALLY GETS A GIRL COUSIN

THE DRESS

Yes, it is beautiful but it is like trying to hold a sack of angry monkeys!

What an amazing trip! We had the best time and we can't wait to come again - Thanks Grandma and Grandpa.

No Excuses

I have been saying for quite a while that I am going to work on our blog to no avail. I am now officially going to call myself a blogger and get to it. I am also aware that there may not be too many of you who are keenly interested in our lives but it does give Grandma and Grandpa a chance to view all of the fun shots of our babe. Lets stop the chit-chat and get to the good stuff. This is us.....enjoy!
