Hey all, it has been 8 months since we last updated! It's about time! I hope you enjoy!
Alie is 3 and a quarter and lots of fun and energy...

Spring 2010
Spring has finally come and we are SO SO glad!
Here's some photos we'd like to share of our lives.

Grammie and Grandpa Pluim came to visit on their way home from Ecuador. It was short but very fun. Unfortunately, Grammie got the cold that Alie and Mum had at the time. Sorry Grammie! What a cute hate from Ecuador!

Grammie braided Alie's hair! Lots of tears but VERY cute :)St. Patrick's Day!

New hoodie tye-dye that Uncle Sean made for Alie!

We seem to have spent a lot of the last year with colds...

Grammie giving Alie her hat and new outfit from Ecuador. Alie loved Grammie's "farmer hat".

Garrett got to go with work to see some new parts of Nebraska. This was Scottsbluff Monument.

This area was on the Oregon Trail. Can you imagine traversing this in a covered wagon?

So many wagons followed this path that it actually cut a groove through landscape.

Alie has discovered peanut butter toast again...

She's been so sick, again. It has also gotten hot here in the last few days. So I went in to make sure she was not too hot. Too cute.

Two more of some new dye's of Sean's.

Alie set up all her little people to come to a concert. She played them some songs. Whose daughter would this be???

Last night Alie was in the middle of jump up and down asking (not very politely) for chocolate milk when she tripped backwards into the pot. It was very funny. She looked up at me with a huge smile.

This is Alie's second golfing trip. She loves it.

Alie so artfully decorated my salad with dog food while I was cooking...

Alie at Prairie Hill Learning Center (where I work and Alie attends). We were making snow ice cream!

First ever pony tail!

Alianna and Ivey having fun at a sleepover!

Admiring her present from Auntie Bean...

Preparing muffins for lunch

Playing in the fort Sean and Mum made!

Washing her table

Playing with Fischer Price's little people set given to her by Deb and Tim- thanks!!!

Alie was blowing bubbles when she heard something exciting (there are more pictures to this set later- I have trouble getting them in the right order- sorry).

Alie's new clock. It turns colors like red for time out, blue for sleeping, yellow for waking, green for whatever you want... you can set the times to happen, or manually making it happen. VERY effective.

Alie's piano that Garrett gave her for Christmas. It plays ten demo songs. WE ARE VERY TIRED OF THEM!!!! She has it on aLL the time and loves to dance to it...

Papa and Nana came out for Garrett's recital (which was fantastic).

Preparing to go swimming

Ahh- more bubble blowing pics

She heard something, made that face you saw earlier

then had to run investigate.

Pretending to be Arya on the couch

I was taking the picture of her clock when I looked up and saw her doing this. I actually got a great picture of her smiling very mischievously when I told her to stop... I deleted it by accident.

Nana

Glacier's paws. So, Nana and PopPop's dog Scout has recently been diagnosed as Celiac (food allergies- as are Sean and Briony). So Nana bought Glacier some special food because he is always so itchy. Turns out she was right! He is doing MUCH better and now doesn't even have to be on his medication!

Jumping... always jumping

Alie chases, and pesters the dogs continually. Poor things.
