Posting Pictures

Mostly pictures from when I was in Red Lake with the girls. But here are a couple from visiting grandma Becky's place too.

Twin cousins - David and Dakota
Emma riding her tricycle, okay not exactly pedaling just riding down the drive way.
Uncle Mike reading to Emma and Scotty.
Miller boys. Aren't they a cute bunch!

The stroller we used to go on our walks in Red Lake.
They rode like this between Elise's and Grandma's.
usually I had Emma riding and I carried Dakota on my back.

Jenni Graber's birthday. It was fun to see eveyone. We were at Kendra's for the evening.

other stuff....
Went to GF today to do some shopping...by myself! Ryan was soo nice to let me go out by myself. It was nice but busy as usual. I'm such a terrible and indecisive shopper, I don't like that but I do enjoy looking at alot of things.

This week went by pretty fast.
I had a turkey dinner here on Thursday, it was pretty simple, turkey, corn, stuffing and pumpkin pie for dessert...mmm!. We invited Jarod and Jessica and their little girls over for supper, it was a good time. It was nice to visit and get to know them a little better. Their oldest daughter is the same age as Emmy and their youngest is only a month old. It was a good evening, sure made me wish we got to know them sooner. We'll just have to make the best of it while we are still here.
Emma growing up, she is starting to want to do things herself. Tonight Ryan was showing her how to put on her own diaper, it was too funny.
Dakoty loves to smile, she just laughs, and smiles all the time, what a sweet heart!! She is eating well, but doesn't like to be on her belly too long.
I've decided this week that I'm going to put Christmas cookie plates together for my bible study ladies. I'm not sure exactly when I'm going to get this done, but it has to be done in couple weeks. Thats okay, it will help me fill in my time.
I got my new double stroller, and I LOVE it! I don't know if I can be that expressive about a stroller, but it it really nice. Its a jogger stroller, the girls sit side by side and the visor has front cover that protects them from the wind, its great! I'd show you a picture but I don't have one yet. :)
We still haven't found a job yet, but Ryan is slowly working on that. We are trying to move back to Roseau, but jobs are few. So we will keep praying. Ryan has till the new year (not many weeks left)

Our internet works again!




I know its been a couple of months since Ryan's birthday but I thought pictures were still fun to see. The first picture, a typical Eric "hugging" Ryan picture. Eric often tries to wrestle with Ryan and most times Ryan will just hang on but not fight back. On his birthday he finally fought back , hehe, but not for very long :) it was still fun to watch and cheer him on. The second picture Ryan blowing out his candles. It was a beautiful day! that day, the weather was beautiful and we spent most of the day outside.
I finally got my wish for a new double stroller, its my Christmas/ Birthday gift. I should be getting it sometime in the next few days. I'm so excited to use it. Its a double jogger stroller with a swivel wheel, red, with a nice canopy, and handles really nice. Thanks to my wonderful hubby!
Okay I was reading a friends website and she posted a question about children's vaccinations, whether to have them done or not. To be honest, I've never heard of NOT getting them done. I guess I've never even questioned it. I read all the responses that people left for her and feel that they are a good thing to have done, even if you have to watch them get poked. I don't like to see my children hurt but I think its worth it to know they will be protected against possible life threatening diseases. okay so there is my two bits.
We went down to Fargo last weekend for the day, spent some time Christmas shopping and then had supper with good friends of ours. It was worth the trip even if we didn't buy much.
Last week was nice, I was able to host Bible study at my place. It was really nice to have everyone here, even though it made me a wreck all week (is my place clean enough?? what do I make for afterwards??) Ryan took Emma out to Cabella's and I had Dakota with me. It was nice because when Dakota was ready for bed (at 8pm) I just put her to bed. That was nice. It turned out to be a nice evening. The next morning a few of us ladies that have had children this year met out at Janelle's and we visited while we watched the little ones play, or we fed. We got to talk about our children, our marriages, our husbands, you know the usual stuff. It was good. God is good, he answers our prayers, I feel like he has answered mine. What a great reminder!
well that's that for a few days. i have more pictures but that will have to wait again for another day.
