Christmas 2009

Another Christmas has come and gone. We are thankful this holiday season for many things. This Christmas season was especially fun for Hudson as he was so into Santa. A week before Christmas we went to visit Santa and Hudson loved every minute of it. He sat on Santa's lap and told him everything he wanted. He ended his conversation with a hug and thank you! It almost brought tears to mom's eyes. Then the week of Christmas quickly arrived. Christmas Eve, Eve we celebrated with the Hause side and I enjoyed some time with the cousins. Then on Christmas Eve (the real eve) the Herriman family came. This means Nana, Papa and Aunt Abby. They sure brought some holiday cheer. We also enjoyed a night at church to celebrate the real reason....the birth of baby Jesus ( I have been learning all about this in Sunday School). We were a little worried we would make church due to the snowfall. I loved being in the snow any chance I could. The Herriman family left on Sunday and then Mimi Hause was back to have a Christmas celebration with her. I have spent my holiday break with all the people I love the most. Thank you for a wonderful Christmas and I look forward to the memories I will make in 2010! Enjoy the slide show and have a Happy New Year!

Carriage Ride

We have been blessed with some very nice weather, so the Herriman family decided to take advantage of the weather and head on down to view the plaza lights. We took a carriage ride to check out all the beauty. Hudson was a little nervous as he was worried that we were not coming along with him. He quickly warmed up and was so cute to watch. The horse, Bill, on the other hand was a little uneasy due to all the traffic. We made it through and enjoyed our ride together as a family. Happy Holidays!!

Happy Thanksgiving

Yum! Yum!

Pilgrim Hudson

Happy Thanksgiving! The Herriman family spent the day at their house. Mimi came to visit and then we went to Uncle Shawn and Aunt Kim's house. I had a fun time playing with my cousins, Brady and Jordy. Thursday I helped prepared a pumpkin dessert and gave thanks for many things. Here are just a few....
-mom and dad
-mimi, nana, papa
-Mack (this is a truck hauler from the movie Cars)
-Word World
-baby-this cracks me up since we have NO babies in our house
Thanksgiving is a time to reflect and give thanks, I was truly amazed at what a 2 year is thankful for!

Another great Halloween gathering at Femi's house. Look how much we have changed in a year!

Happy Halloween

This year Halloween was a blast. I enjoyed running from house to house, ringing the doorbell and saying "trick or treat"! I made it around the block in about 2 hours, with many long visits along the way. Aunt Abby came along with and a guy named Freddy as well.

Dem Bones, Dem Bones, Funny Bones

Red Barn Farm

Pumpkin Patch

pony ride

petting zoo

This was a busy weekend for the Herriman family. We ended the weekend with a trip to the Red Barn Farm in Weston, Missouri. The Lumetta's went along with us. We had a great time. I checked out animals in the petting zoo, the goats were my favorite. Then I took a pony ride and picked out some pumpkins in the patch. Happy Fall!!

Miles for Marley

Today the Herriman family walked for Marley. She is a 1 year old, who was recently diagnosed with a brain tumor. The doctors removed what they could of the tumor and the next day she suffered a stroke, which left the right side of her body paralyzed. Marley spent a little over 50 days at Children's Mercy Hospital getting the care she needed. She has started chemo and physical therapy. Marley is back at home with her family and you can read more of her story at caringbridge.com. Marley is a true example of strength and courage. She is a fighter!! It was such a nice feeling to help someone out and walk for a good cause.

Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs

Tonight we went to the movies and enjoyed "Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs". We had a great time and I really liked the movie.

It's a bird, a plane.......no it's Superhero Hudson!
