Why not start the year off with a Plunge in to a Freezing Lake (picture taken by Sidney)

Always making me smile

Pantie's for the Big girl

Doing a great job at potty training
A wonderful Christmas and a great start to the year. I only have one question is winter over yet?!?! LOL
 Ashlynn is doing great with potty training and started training on her own. We are so very happy to be out of diapers mostly (except at night). She even does well when we go out.
Sidney has been enjoying her Christmas gifts and karate. And not enjoying be a big sister to a 2 year old. I tell her this to well pass. We all felt this way about our siblings.
Jeremy and I are continuously working on getting the house projects done.  Progress is better then nothing at all. I am very grateful for progress. I ran a 5K this past weekend in -33 degrees. Brrr it was cold but running kept me warm. Thank you to my good friend Suzy for doing this with me and and encouraging me so. I hope to do many more and maybe a full marathon in a couple of years. (pictures to come)

In Memory of my Dear Little cousin

I am blogging today in memory of my little cousin Emily Marie Fattoruss.



You well be remembered, I well see you when I get there.


Lets see this past month has seemed so long. Maybe its the dark or the cold or the missing the family but it is finally over and we are on to another winter month. We have done lots of fun things this winter so far.


 




The first exciting thing that happened is Sidney got her first strip in Karate.









Then my Father in Law had his car filmed for the new movie "Frozen Ground". Wish I could have visited the set.

 

Then I was lucky enough to host a baby shower for my dear friend Emily Taylor. She had her beautiful little girl Avigail Eden Sunday, November 20, 2011 weighing 8pounds and 13ounces with a length of 21inches!






Ashlynn had a friend come and play for the evening. They were both very good and had a blast.










907 Pitbulls <3





We have all had a some colds this year. Sidney wanted the sweat treatment so here she is trying to sweat it out.





A project Sidney and I did. You can't really see the fabric but it has horses.




English Muffin Pizza's



Jeremy has been busy painting and building and of course snow blowing
Pic to come this thing is being wired.
Thanks for reading.

My Little Ashlynn Jean

80's Birthday Party
I had planed to go with J to Nashville but that didn't work out.
Then I was going to go to Women's Retreat for church but that didn't work out.
I was then just going to go to work but Ashlynn got an ear infection.
So I took the weekend off. Ashlynn was feeling better.
I have a wonderful Step mother-in-law and Father-in-Law who watched the girls and one dog over night.
I went and enjoyed some girl time at Cassie and Sam's 80's themed birthday sleep over.
Trust me this was some much need time away.
So after a really long week and everything falling in to place. I partied like it was 1980.
I love my moms group. I am so blessed to have found such a great group of women. I would be so lonely in AK if it was not for them.
Thank you ladies for everything.
xoxo

My Post on FB

I have thought a lot about this. I have decided that Facebook has been too much of a distraction in my life. I need to focus on the important stuff. I well be taking a break from Facebook for a while. I well posting blogs and well checking my e-mail at least once a week. You can call or write and send a snail mail letter. If you really are wanted to see me and my family you can always come for a visit. Alaska is a great place to visit all year round. I am always willing to host guests. Even in the winter you won’t get bored I have lots for you to do ;). So keep in touch as I enjoy my family and my life without FB distractions. And be looking for small Christmas gifts from the Akers Clan.



Love and Blessing to you all
