Let it snow

IT'S SNOWING!!!!!

Looking at the ground as the snow fell

Dancing on the sidewalk & Loving this weather.

She just kept watching and laughing, and screaming "Snow!" and "It's Cold!"

SWEET BABY GIRL!!!!

This is what we do when we smell a skunk or Daddy. PEW-WEEE

LOOK AT THIS SWEET FACE.

Anytime she sees our tree or any Christams decorations she says "WOW"!!!!!

Its a Potty!!!!!

Multitasking!!! She gives herself a pedicure and learns to use the potty all at once.

After the stickers got old she saw me wrapping Christmas presents, she wanted me to wrap up her baby. I had her stand by the tree and get her picture taken with her baby. She thought it was funny.

She gives her baby a kiss. She frequently takes her baby to the tree and shows her each ornament. As she points to each one she says this, this this, boots(cowboy boot), bull, momma and dada,(a frame ornament of our wedding picture) and then back to saying this, this, this, this........

Stickers

Charleigh is really into stickers right now, as you can see. She likes to stick them then take it off, then re-stick it over and over until they have lost the sticky. She also enjoys sticking them on her Daddy's head before he goes to work.

Going to the Town tree lighting.

We went to the Bismarck city tree lighting where they have Santa come and the kids can sit on his lap to tell him what they want. The whole time we waited for him to get there she would say "Where is he?" and put her arms up like she was confused. She did this for about a half an hour until he showed up. Then she buried her head in my shoulder and was ready to leave. When we got home she was showing her doll the tree and I asked her if she wanted to sit on Santa's lap she said "yeah", So I said "Oh you do?" and she said "Oh noooooo" It was so funny when she realized what she was sayingshe was like "heck no!"

This time last year..........

Charleigh's first Christmas

ANOTHER BENJAMIN BORN INTO THE WORLD

My good friend Crystal, who I met in xray school, and I work with now had her little boy on December 3, 2007. He weighed in at 9lbs 3 ozs. and was 22 inches long. BOY WHAT A BIGGIN'
They named him Benjamin Dean Reece. With a name like that I am sure he will be a sweet boy.

HAVE YOURSELF A MERRY LITTLE CHRISTMAS

Christmas was always a GREAT time growing up. It was like MAGIC. I hope we can make it just as special for Charleigh. It wasn't just the presents, it was everyone getting together, and staying in one place over night, and then waking up at 4:00 to open presents with all of my cousins. Then on Christmas break all of our cousins would come and stay with us. It was a great time, always. Rockin out the 90's hair. Oh, and yes we are wearing feety-pajamas!!! we wore them WAY TO LATE IN LIFE! sometimes they got to tight and we would cut out the feet to get some more wear out of them. I can remember the feet in them were always a bit cold, especially when your feet got sweaty after being in closed in vinyl for 8 hours. I guess it reminded my mom of when we were Charleigh's age. Maybe she wanted to keep us younger than we were, now I know how she felt and I really can't blame her. Did any of you guys wear these after age 4? Please tell me ya did.

Cowboy Ben in front of his Christmas tree. Ben is that a little dolly you are holding? I mean if it is, it is alright I was just wondering.

Santa is Comimg....

This is Ben and Cecil dressing up like Santa. Ben said "Cecil always got the good costumes." They almost trick Tim into sitting on Santa's lap.

No way he isn't falling for it.

Another BABY on its way.

Cecil and Shanna (Ben's Brother)will be the next to add and addition to the Ferrell Family. So CONGRATULATIONS guys your lives will never be the same.

I guess we know where Charleigh gets her waving from. She waves like crazy to everyone when she is riding a horse, like her Momma did.

No Wonder Charleigh is a cowgirl......it is in her blood.

Lacy doesn't look real happy that she is the one leading Shadow. I look like I am pretending to be riding in a rodeo.

Ben in his Daddy's hat. His head still is this small.

This is Charity, Lacy and me at a rodeo somewhere. We were STYLIN'

This is our pony Tiny Hiney. Charity was such a good big sis and took us on pony rides.

Ben's 30th......Celebration

We decided that we would have a party for Ben's birthday since he was turning 30. When we could all get together ended up being almost two months after his actual birthday but it ended up being perfect. I thought it would be fun to have a dodge ball tournament and Ben mentioned he should dress up like one of the guys from the movie. So after bucking bulls Ben went up and changed into his get-up that we put together. IT WAS HILARIOUS!!!! I had a hard time getting pictures because I was laughing so hard. You can imagime what everyone else thought. We played D-ball for like 7 hours(until 2 in the morning) and the next day I could hardly walk.
There was a great turn out for the party and we had a great time,everyone said we need to make it an annual party. So if you plan on attending next year you better start getting in shape now.

GO VIPERS!!!!

The bash

This is Austin, (he had made the blog before) He is working the out gate for the bulls at the party.

Ben had to hold this baby since Charleigh was at Gram and Gramps.

Brandon and Zach waiting to buck some bulls

Lance, Ben Mic, and Justin sitting around after bucking a few bulls. Ben rode and Mic fought the other two were worthless.
