Hello Little One-Or-Osa Bears First Year as a Grandma!!!

Hello Little One!!!! We welcomed little Evie into our lives on March 8th, 2009!!! It has been such a special year with her. She lights up all our lives and we can't wait to see what the future brings. We are so grateful that she is here and doing great. We love you Evie!!!
Hi DADDY!!!! Bry immediately took little Evie and really took good care of her!!! It was soooooo cute!
Proud Grandparents. First Grandchild for all of us. What a great day!!!!
Unky AD--- What a great guy and he loves to take Evie for airplane rides when Grandpa is not available.
Cutest Mom ever!!! Britt has had a wild year with a few visits to the hospital. We are glad she survived it all. Evie lights up all our lives.
Special bond forming here!!!!!
We loved her in her orange outfit, complete with a hat which she hated. She is not comfortable with anything on her head!!!

"Oh Hi!!!!!" Says Auntie Gems and gets a huge smile everytime!!!
How precious is this?????
Blessing day!!! Grandma Lisa bought this beautiful dress for Evie. Her Aunt Brittany loves her a lot. We blessed her at our home to accommodate a traveling Grandpa.
Our first outing to Thanksgiving Point Gardens it was so much fun! She did really well.
Happy Grandma!!!! Evie sleeping in my arms. That was a rare occurrence. My little bundle of love.
What's not to love???
Fun times in San Diego with the crew!!! She tolerated this hat for maybe about five minutes!!!
Evie loved the wedding balloons!!!! We kept some around for weeks afterward and they provided hours of entertainment!
Grandpa Mark took us to Torrey Pines and had a blast taking Evie on walks!!! "Wittow one" lights up his life!!!
Great Grandma Bets had fun with Evie at the Gardner Village Witch display!!! Isn't she a cute Great-Grandma!!!
Evie"s toy box provided hours of fun for Grandpa, Grandma, and Evie!!!!
Watching her start to walk was so much fun but also nerveracking!!! Our home is almost entirely tile floors. Not so good for a new walker!!!
We went to Disneyland at the end of January and this picture was taken by Megan. It will be one of my all time favorites!!! This little girl has brought so much joy to all our lives. I don't know what we would do without her!!!

Happiest Place on Earth!!

We had so much fun at the end of January in Disneyland. All 11 of us were there. (nothing better). We lucked out on the weather and the crowds. High 60's and Low crowds. Britt, Evie and I took off a day early and had a ton of fun. I rode Dumbo more in two days than I have the entire rest of my life!!! What a blast!!! She also loved the Tea-Cups and screamed on the Carousel. We had good food together at Story-Tellers Cafe in Grand Californian and Naples Ristorante e Pizzaria in Downtown Disney.

It couldn't have been better. Midway Mania was a blast(new last year). Daniel was just short of 1,000,000 points in Buzz and Tower of Terror was in fine form. Of course we ate plenty of Pickles and Chocolate. It was a blast!!!
