4 DAYS AWAY FROM BEING 1!

♥ Can't believe our baby is about to turn one! Well it's been a few months again since i have written! Sorry for that! So much is new, Ella is walking all over like crazy! She went on her first airplane, to Arizona for a friends wedding, she went to her first rodeo, went on her first carnival ride, her first park, lots of first this past month! She still goes to day care two days a week and just loves it there half the time she doesn't even take a nap, i think she doesn't wanna miss anything! She had her first bout of pink eye right before Easter, but again she is such a trooper, never really UN happy even when shes sick! She is still sleeping through the night and just a happy good baby, she loves all kinds of "people food" as us animal lovers call it! lol Haven't found any food she doesn't like! We had lots of grandma visits, and a couple grandpas too! Ella's first birthday is this sat! We aren't doing anything real big, but we will celebrate! I promise to update right away and post her new bday pictures! This blog really got me almost 4 months worth of pictures...lets just say it took foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrr! :) That's about it around here..looking forward to some lake trips, and camping, and hopefully visiting more family!

WE KNOW WE ARE SOOO LUCKY TRUST ME! ANYHOW AS THE PICTURES SHOWED SHE LOVED THE STOPS..WE WOULD CHANGE HER AND LET HER STAND ON THE CAR AND SHE JUST LAUGHED AND LOVED THE WIND..THEN BACK IN THE CAR AND OFF AGAIN, SHES A PRETTY GOOD TRAVELER!

WHEN SHE WAKES SHE JUST LAUGHS AND TALKS FOR ANYWHERE FROM 30MIN TO AN HOUR ITS SO FUNNY TO LISTEN TOO!


♥ WE WENT TO THE PUMPKIN PATCH OR SHOULD I SAY FARM..ITS THE FIRST YEAR FOR OUR NEW TRADITIONS! IT WAS IN WHEATLAND ABOUT 35 MIN AWAY AND IT HAD A PETTING ZOO, HAY RIDES OUT TO PICK YOUR PUMPKINS, FOOD, RIDES, ALL KINDS OF FUN STUFF! IT WAS A LITTLE WINDY AND COLD, AND LOOKED LIKE IT WAS GONNA START POORING ON US SO WE CUT OUR VISIT A LITTLE SHORT, BUT ELLA HAD A BLAST CAUSE ONCE AGAIN SHE LOVVVEESS THE WIND! ITS SO FUNNY IT BLOWS IN HER FACE AND SHE CRACKS UP! THEN WE WENT TO VISIT RANDYS PARENTS GRANDPA AND GRANDMA COWEN IN YUBA CITY ABOUT ANOTHER 25MIN FROM THERE! I THINK THATS IT WITH THE PICTURES..THE OTHERS ARE KINDA MISC. I TAKE SO MANY ITS HARD TO CHOOSE FROM! :)

SO I CAME HOME FROM WORK..AND I DIDNT JUST COME IN THE DOOR LIKE ALWAYS ..TODAY I CLEANED OUT THE CAR..LOL WE HAD LOTS OF CRAP IN THERE FROM YESTERDAY..SO I GOT IT ALL OUT THEN I PARTIALY OPENED THE DOOR THEN LET IT CLOSE CAUSE I THOUGHT WHY NOT GET THE MAIL... MEANWHILE RANDY WAS INSIDE THE HOUSE ON ONE KNEE WITH ELLA IN HIS LAP WITH THE RING..ALL DRESSED UP IN A SUIT AND TIE! ELLA TOO IN A DRESS AND PATENT LEATHER SHOES!....I WAS IN SHOCK I TRIED TO PUT ALL THE STUFF DOWN AS HE WAS TALKING!! I DIDNT HEAR A WORD HE SAID AND AS SOON AS HE STOPED I SAID OF COURSE!...THEN HE PROCEDED TO TELL ME IT WAS ALL ON TAPE! LOL SO I LOOKED AROUND AND SAW THE CAMERA..HE HAD IT ALL STACKED UP ON BOOKS AND RECORDING US! LATER I SAW THE VIDEO...HE PRACTICE LIKE 4 TIMES...AND WAS SITTING THERE FOREVER WHILE I WAS CLEANING OUT THE CAR AND GETIN THE MAIL..HE WAS SO NERVOUS AND WORRIED..EVEN SHAKEING! ON THE TAPE LIKE AN HOUR BEFORE HE SAID HI, IM ABOUT TO PROPOSE TO DANIELLE AND EVEN THO IM SURE SHE WILL SAY YES THERE IS STILL THAT CHANCE THAT SHE WILL SAY NO, I AM SO NERVOUS I HAVE NEVER DONE THIS B4 AND IF SHE SAYS NO I WILL NEVER DO THIS AGAIN...IM WORRIED! OH MY GOSH THAT WAS PRICELESS I WAS BALLING! HE IS AMAZING AND WONDERFUL...IT WAS SO PERFECT AND I WAS SHOCKED! I AM SO EXCITED TO BE HIS WIFE! WE ARE LOOKING AT SEPT 20, 2008! THANKYOU THOSE THAT HAVE SUPPORTED US THROUGH IT ALL IT REALLY FEELS LIKE 10 YEARS IN THE MAKING.... I REALLY DIDNT THINK I WOULD BE AS GIDDY AS I FEEL SINCE WE HAVE OUR PRECIOUS BABY GIRL AND ALL..BUT I AM ON CLOUD 9 NO 10 AND I CANT WAIT TO BE HIS WIFE!!
