A lot of the children who came to her party wore their Halloween costumes. During the party, we had the kids decorate pumpkins and cup cakes. The next day, I took Anna Trick or Treating in the neighborhood. When we rang our neighbors door and they opened it, Anna would just start walking into their house. It took us about 3 houses before she learned to just stand outside and say, "Trick or Treat". It was a great weekend.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3484529071045688169-58731604236763362?l=billandpattybyrd.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Bill and Pattyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08061477220983349634noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3484529071045688169.post-35017183898716462892010-10-17T12:20:00.000-07:002010-10-17T12:23:46.294-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_grdNytu4d0A/TLtNIV2puPI/AAAAAAAAAVY/hIGPjo9VV50/s1600/photo5.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_grdNytu4d0A/TLtNIV2puPI/AAAAAAAAAVY/hIGPjo9VV50/s320/photo5.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5529097773228079346" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_grdNytu4d0A/TLtNCyDus1I/AAAAAAAAAVQ/ylyV0kKTsLY/s1600/photo4.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_grdNytu4d0A/TLtNCyDus1I/AAAAAAAAAVQ/ylyV0kKTsLY/s320/photo4.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5529097677719909202" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_grdNytu4d0A/TLtM9mLx7dI/AAAAAAAAAVI/YWDOZablF0I/s1600/photo2.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_grdNytu4d0A/TLtM9mLx7dI/AAAAAAAAAVI/YWDOZablF0I/s320/photo2.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5529097588633103826" /></a><br />Today we stopped by a church selling pumpkins.

The problem was it was so big, we didn't have a flat spot to put it in the back yard. Our friend Vincent, from our small group at church, helped me level off a place in the back yard to erect the play set. Patty's dad helped me reassemble it when we brought it up from their house. <div><br /></div><div>This was one of the biggest projects I have done at this house and I can't wait to do more.</div><object width="320" height="266" class="BLOG_video_class" id="BLOG_video-15e12877236e2511" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/get_player"><param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"><param name="flashvars" value="flvurl=http://v1.nonxt3.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id%3D15e12877236e2511%26itag%3D5%26app%3Dblogger%26ip%3D0.0.0.0%26ipbits%3D0%26expire%3D1331195682%26sparams%3Did,itag,ip,ipbits,expire%26signature%3D794BD819119A1427FE5D26A07F82E327682BFF2C.46A736B7A614345EFEF249897A3680CCB98BF602%26key%3Dck1&amp;iurl=http://video.google.com/ThumbnailServer2?app%3Dblogger%26contentid%3D15e12877236e2511%26offsetms%3D5000%26itag%3Dw160%26sigh%3DKqRrA7xcSQMKmZYk1Qow9dSnsNY&amp;autoplay=0&amp;ps=blogger"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/get_player" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"width="320" height="266" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"flashvars="flvurl=http://v1.nonxt3.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id%3D15e12877236e2511%26itag%3D5%26app%3Dblogger%26ip%3D0.0.0.0%26ipbits%3D0%26expire%3D1331195682%26sparams%3Did,itag,ip,ipbits,expire%26signature%3D794BD819119A1427FE5D26A07F82E327682BFF2C.46A736B7A614345EFEF249897A3680CCB98BF602%26key%3Dck1&iurl=http://video.google.com/ThumbnailServer2?app%3Dblogger%26contentid%3D15e12877236e2511%26offsetms%3D5000%26itag%3Dw160%26sigh%3DKqRrA7xcSQMKmZYk1Qow9dSnsNY&autoplay=0&ps=blogger"allowFullScreen="true" /></object><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3484529071045688169-5184488699340910217?l=billandpattybyrd.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Bill and Pattyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08061477220983349634noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3484529071045688169.post-69122192502039073562010-08-26T12:26:00.000-07:002010-08-26T18:14:03.500-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_grdNytu4d0A/THbDQnxW8WI/AAAAAAAAATo/mz4D6qwxWSo/s1600/IMGP2912.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_grdNytu4d0A/THbDQnxW8WI/AAAAAAAAATo/mz4D6qwxWSo/s320/IMGP2912.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5509805884455711074" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_grdNytu4d0A/THbDIhjXRxI/AAAAAAAAATg/psTRxNrTdpk/s1600/IMGP2935.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_grdNytu4d0A/THbDIhjXRxI/AAAAAAAAATg/psTRxNrTdpk/s320/IMGP2935.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5509805745347446546" /></a><br />Patty has enrolled Anna in "gymnastics" with her friend Allison and her daughter Brooke.

Their daughter Olivia is only about 8 weeks old and that would have been too long of a day of travel for her.</div><div> </div><div>Anyway, we had a great weekend and Anna got to put on her first swimsuit although it was too cold to swim.

My nephew BJ (15 yrs. old) and I (39 yrs old) went on a clue driven Easter egg hunt all over the front, side and back yard. My Aunt hid clues on little pieces of paper hidden throughout the yard and we had to solve before we could go the next clue.

They had to spend Christmas in the hospital because my uncle had unexpected surgery a few days before, but he is on his way to recovery. It was the first time they met Anna.<br /><br />After the hospital visit, we went to my sister Linda's house to share our annual Christmas Eve meal with my family. My sister Kathy had a cold, so we made her wear a bandana over her face when she held Anna. It was pretty comical.<br /><br />Linda, my sister, had her arms full with Anna and her two dogs and Tammy was quite comfortable holding Anna. <br /><br />On the way home, we drove through one of the worst rain storms I can remember. I was driving about 45 mph while all the way Anna slept without ever noticing.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3484529071045688169-2461694845518593432?l=billandpattybyrd.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Bill and Pattyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08061477220983349634noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3484529071045688169.post-64231031039227379602008-12-06T04:37:00.000-08:002008-12-06T04:45:06.484-08:00<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_grdNytu4d0A/STpzu60oY6I/AAAAAAAAADw/f0s12DH4WfA/s1600-h/Picture+016.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_grdNytu4d0A/STpzu60oY6I/AAAAAAAAADw/f0s12DH4WfA/s320/Picture+016.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5276657163319141282" /></a><br />It's official, Anna was 1 month old on Wednesday. It feels like just yesterday we were brining her home from the hospital. We took her to the doctor for 1 month check up. She is now 8 lb. 12 oz. and 21 1/2" long. The doctor said she was growing right on schedule.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3484529071045688169-6423103103922737960?l=billandpattybyrd.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Bill and Pattyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08061477220983349634noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3484529071045688169.post-59467864078848679342008-12-06T04:31:00.001-08:002008-12-06T04:35:28.074-08:00<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_grdNytu4d0A/STpxFEpZaKI/AAAAAAAAADo/DcdByk63oKA/s1600-h/Picture+002.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_grdNytu4d0A/STpxFEpZaKI/AAAAAAAAADo/DcdByk63oKA/s320/Picture+002.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5276654245378615458" /></a><br />Patty's family came over to our house for Thanksgiving.

I think the dogs will be very protective of Anna in they days to come. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>The grandparents are over today helping out.
