When I count my blessings, I count you twice...

I love how busy life can be sometimes...but every now and then it's good to take some time to reflect on how much there is to be grateful for. My family is the best blessing in my life, and I can't believe how much has changed in such a short period of time. Our little girl is now 19 months old but acts like a little teenager already! She's got her mama's attitude, and her daddy's good looks! So you can just imagine how busy our little life is!

With all there is to catch up on, and again with how little time I have at the moment, I must say that these are a few of the things we have been up to in 2010. Vacations, early mornings, summer days, and family time... enjoy!

So, Thomas had to leave us on January 3rd for 9 weeks to go up to Edmonton for work! Geesh...that is a long time! Anyways, I have been trying to be dilligent in taking photos and videos of our growing girl so I can keep him posted while he is away. It just so happens that she is literally growing like a weed! The day after he left, she crawled for the first time, the next day she stood up on her own, then she said "dog" and now she feeds herself! I don't know what has happened, but my baby is getting SO big!Summer has become obsessed with her new toys...there are some she WON'T let go of!
I love you daddy! Can't wait to see you soon! I hope you bring me some presents when you come see me... :) -love Summie

Christmas 2009

This year was Summer's first Christmas, and it was such a great time!! She just LOVED all the toys she got from her family. Her aunty Ashley came over on Christmas eve for a little pre Christmas event where we had a ham dinner and then opened presents from the Edgson side of the family. Summer got a couple really cool toys that she loves and we had a really great time watching her excitement...I can only imagine what next year is going to be like - SO FUN!
Christmas day was great too. We were out in Fort Macleod with the Gunderson side of the family and it was so nice to have a relaxing morning and watch a few of the grandkids open presents. It really is amazing to see how excited children get for Christmas, and I can totally see how it is going to become my favorite time of year as I have little kids.

Spending time with friends and family was great...we really missed everyone out in PG for the holidays, but we are excited to see you all in the new year. The bit of time we got to hang out during the Christmas break as a family was much needed and fantastic memories were made. In the end, we all got spoiled and had a wonderful Christmas...Can't wait until next year!!
