The Freeman's

February and March 2011

Not too much happened in February. Well, I turned 33 but that's about it.

In March I channeled my inner hair stylist and I had some fun playing with Ryleigh's hair.

And apparently Ryleigh was channeling her inner "bag lady" in March.

January 2011!

This time Ryleigh put the fort to good use and took a nap in it!

For her birthday this year Ryleigh got a Clifford the Big Red Dog cake. She also got more dishes, playdoh, and the Cootie game.

I'm not sure why her hands are on her face, she just snuggled up with her bunny and got all comfy cozy :)

December 2010

Ryleigh went to her first birthday party at her friend Abbigail's house!

so.tired.can't.make.it.to.the.bed....zzzzzzzzzzz

Ryleigh went to a Christmas party the hospital put on and she got to see Santa!

I see you!

Ryleigh was given one of the most important roles when we decorated the Christmas tree.

Ryleigh likes to play in forts :)

My parents came to visit for Christmas. Ryleigh enjoyed having time with Grandma and Grandpa Willison and opening some presents.

We got up bright and early to say "goodbye" to my parents on the 26th.

Thanks to their loving wives, Mike and his friend Jarom get to be twiners once in a while!

We went down to Utah for the Thanksgiving break to spend time with the Willison side of the family. My brother Darren showed us the way to the appetizers. Ryleigh got to eat her dinner with her cousins Jada and Bailey. After many takes and a lot of hassle we finally ended up with an acceptable family picture.

Later that week we went with my brother Mark, his wife Nancy, and their two kids to a Pirate themed restaurant! The girls enjoyed the roller coaster "ride" and the merry-go-round.

October 2010

Mike and Jarom took a moment to kick back and relax between the conference sessions.

Early in the month we went to a corn maze that had plenty of activities for little kids. Ryleigh enjoyed making corn angels, getting a ride on the tractor from Mike, and the petting zoo.

We had three other couples over to our house to eat and the men made the whole thing. Now, which one is dinner and which one is dessert?

We went to the Boo at the Zoo with Camp Rainbow Gold (a great organization that plans fun activities throughout the year for kids who have gone through chemo). Ryleigh dressed up as Clifford the Big Red Dog's friend Cleo.

Ryleigh went trick or treating at MSTI, (that's where Ryleigh got her chemo treatments). Later that day we went to a different corn maze and watched a piglet race! They also had a bounce pillow, a roller slide, a train ride, and a BIG chair. Ryleigh got to have a pony ride. There was even an oreo cow that came with milk!
