Happy Birthday Alyssa!

October 16th was Alyssa's 3rd Birthday! Boy did she have fun. We weren't able to celebrate it on the actual day so we made it last ALL weekend! Katie even made her a cake on Thursday and then I made her Princess carriage cake for her party. She definately loved being fussed over! I can't believe she is already 3. It seems like yesterday that we were bringing her home from the hospital and I was having to relearn what to do with a baby, all over again. She is such a joy to our family and definately the life of the party. She is always coming up with such funny and cute things to say. We hope you had a great birthday Alyssa! We love you lots!!!

Alyssa was reading us the card that Katie had made her. It was really cute! Katie had made her a necklace and some rings that now she can't leave home with out! : )

Well, I thought I would add some manliness to our page. This is Joe's buck that he shot this last fall with Trevor. Boy we sure have enjoyed the summer sausage and jerky!
