March Madness :)

So, I'm obviously AWFUL at keeping up my blog. My good friend Rebecca so sweetly asked me to post some pictures.... so here goes! :) I'm going to do a couple different posts, but we'll begin with this month. If you look down a few posts it all begins with the Polar Express. We've had a wonderful last few months!! (and Rebecca, please notice the adorable yellow skirt below... Thanks!! Grace LOVES it!!)

It's been a busy and FUN month! We started (and ended) out our month with some special visitors. First, Vince's sister Jen came to visit with her daughter, Kathryn. As you will see, Grace and Kathryn truly are two peas in a pod. They LOVE each other so much!! And, the big news for Kathryn is that she became a big sister on Wednesday, March 24th. Jen and Mike welcomed their new baby girl Brynn Kathleen Vercillo. Grace is very exicted to have two girl cousins and wants to know when Brynn will be able to run around and play with her. :)

A sad goodbye!! :(

This week we had to say goodbye to our good friends Annie, Kurt, Keegan, and Reese. They just arrived in Germany and we already miss them. You can see that Grace is going to miss some of her best buds!!

Fighter Pilot for the Day!! :)

This week one of our best friends, Matt Altman came to visit us from the Azores. Vince brought him up to the base and the boys got to "play" in the simulators. I think Matt even got to shoot Vince once. :) At the end you can see them celebrating Matt's new assignment to Germany with some German beer. I think we're going to have to make a big trip to Germany.... we're losing a lot of good friends to that country!!

February Fun

In February our good friend Stephanie Fargo came to visit from Alaska with her two sweet boys, Brett and Cole. Here they are enjoying the warm Arizona sun!


Happy Valentine's Day!! :)

At the end of the month Vince brought Grace to her first Daddy Daughter Dance. :) It was a princess theme. What a cute couple!

Trip to Buffalo

This winter we made a trip to Buffalo to visit my parents and play in the snow. :) Grace had SOO much fun!! She LOVES the snow!! She loves to eat the snow, make snow angels, and go sledding. I think her favorite part of the day was to come in from a fun and cold day outside and have hot chocolate and marshmallows with Grandma and Grandpa!!

Trip to Colorado

In January we made a trip out to visit Rachel, Mike, Baylan, and Lilly. The kids had so much fun!!

Happy Birthday Daddy!

In January we celebrated Vince's 31st birthday. We had a family celebration with the 3 of us that turned out quite fun. Grace LOVES cake and balloons so birthdays tend to be VERY exciting!! :)

Here is Grace and one of her best buds, Emily. They are quite the artists!!

We finished Grace's Big Girl Room in January. She LOVES it!! :)

Christmas 2009

This Christmas we got to spend the holidays with Vince's family. We all crammed in our little house to celebrate together. :) Grace made a Gingerbread house with Nana and played for hours with her cousin, Kathryn. Those girls are quite a pair. We had plently of presents for all (as you can see!!) and lots of love to share.
