Grandpa Sanders turned 93! It was nice to get together with some of our family and have a birthday party. My mom thought it would be cool and easier to use glow sticks instead of candles. I loved how it looked with all the lights off! And Grandpa didn't have to wear himself out trying to blow out 93 candles! Do you think that many candles would fit on a cake? Happy Birthday Grandpa, you are wonderful!
Our adorable little sweetheart started her second year of preschool. She loves going to school. Her teacher is Miss Dawn. Allison's two favorite things at school are playing kitties on the playground and playing up in the loft.
After her first day at school Aunt Kim took Alli to the zoo to celebrate her birthday. Benson and I tagged along. Thanks, we had a great time!
The new Rocky Shores exhibit opened and wow, we loved it! The seals and sea lions were really fun to see but the polar bear stole the show. He would start on his big rock, dive down under the water and then pop up right in front of the window. It was so exciting! "Oh hello, Mr. Polar Bear." He did this over and over and over and we watched him for a looooong time.
These pictures break and warm my heart at the same time. Our little girl no longer needs to stand on her tip-toes to get a drink. Oh, Alli Bear, we love that you are healthy and growing but feel free to linger at these stages a little longer. No need to rush this growing up business.
