The Laughlin Family: 2009

Time to celebrate Christmas at Mema & Poppy's!

A family moment

A Mema moment

Let's rip into these gifts, already!

What is in this box?!?

Poppy, can you help me get this baby out please?

Finally, time to play with my new toys!

Woo! Hoo! Lundyn is a busy girl.

and SO happy!

Our Christmas Day

What a great time we had with our family on Christmas!

Sweet hugs! Gotta catch her fast though!

Lundyn tore open her gifts like a champ with Mommy's help. She wanted to play with each gift we opened, so that made moving on to the next one a challenge.

Once we made it through Lundyn's gifts, she decided that her cousins needed her help with their presents too.

Aww! Sweet cousins!

Class Christmas Party

It was party day in Lundyn's preschool class. So Lundyn put on her Christmas clothes and her awesome Santa coat that her Nana bought her and went to party.

Lundyn's sweet teacher, Ms. Kim, is helping her with the art project.

Waiting to make a huge mess. I mean, waiting to decorate cookies.

Sweet Cookie Lips

Happy Day!

Lundyn's 1st School Pic

I'm sure it was no small feat to get Lundyn to sit still even for a moment to get these taken. What a hoot!

The sick bug interfered with our Thanksgiving celebration this year. Mark and Lundyn were both sick and I was running the infirmary. Despite the coughing, wheezing, sneezing and sore throats, we still had a sweet time together. Our thoughtful family delivered their Thanksgiving meals to our house so, we didn't miss out on the goodies. We are so thankful for the love and support that our family continuously gives us.

Just Some Picture Takin'

Let's Play!

We were invited to spend the afternoon with other Angel families in our area. Its always great to see them and the kids got to have some play time. Lundyn's seizures are still frequent, so we decided to keep her helmet on for extra protection, just in case.

Lundyn ate and wore a yummy chocolate chip cookie.

There was a cool swing set to play on.

And Lundyn sped around on this car.

But the most awesome was the bounce house. This thing was addicting. We just couldn't stay away from it for long. It brought many smiles and giggles from the kids. Okay, the parents too. We were just loving it!

Trick or Treat Y'all

Lundyn was a Cowgirl for Halloween this year. Don't you think it just suits her? She likes to ride horses AND she has boots. It was just the thing for her this year!

We didn't have the horse, so we did the next best thing and took a spin through the neighborhood in the red wagon.

The weather was beautiful. While we were waiting on the first trick or treaters, we turned on some country music and Lundyn "cut a rug."

Happy Halloween!

More Pumpkin Patch!?!

Just when you think your pumpkin patch fun is over, you find another one. I just couldn't pass it up. They had some cute stuff! Well, you'll see...

I just love this!

How tall in the fall, whatever! There were other things on Lundyn's mind! Next, please!

Have to move fast for precious moments like these. They don't last long, but they are treasured forever.

The loves of my life!!

Then we put her to work. Not really, but she thought this was funny.

Now, my fall is complete and my heart is full.

Its Pumpkin Patch Time

This is just about my favorite time of year. Wait, I would probably say that about the bluebonnets too, but really its a toss up. We have made a pumpkin patch trip every year since Lundyn was born. Here are some of my favorite memories...
