Christmas 2009

Our Family Christmas Picture for 2009!

Yes, I'm a little behind on blogging, but better late than never. Christmas Eve was spent in Pella @ Kevin's Grandpa and Grandma Kuiper. We had a great time and the food was delicious. Christmas Day Tyler, Kevin, Corey, & Dad Rozenboom sang Away in a Manger in Church. It was really neat. Christmas Day was spent with Dad & Mom Rozenboom playing Wii, relaxing, opening presents, and eating lots of good food.



New Year's Weekend was spent in MN with my family. We enjoyed getting together with my Mom's side of the family on Friday evening. Saturday we opened presents, played Wii, and just enjoyed spenting time together.



Here are a few pictures for you to enjoy.

Update

Finally an update from Webster City!!! We have been keeping very busy here as usual and are truly enjoying the nice fall weather ~ even though that means long hours for Kevin @ work.

Our daycare was closed two weeks ago due to H1N1 so Kevin & I took turns working that week. While I was at work on Wednesday of that week Tyler & Kevin went to Oskaloosa to help Grandpa and Grandma Rozenboom farm. Tyler loves to play farm so he was really excited to actually ride in the combine with Daddy. He learned a lot that day and had lots of questions. Here are a couple pics of Kevin & Tyler in the combine.

Tyler also had a great time being Thomas the Train for Halloween. We went trick or treating down our lane and also to a few friends house ~ he had a blast and gots lots of candy.

Piper & Tyler

Tyler & I also had a day away with Shawna, Mitchell, and Connor. We went to Ames to enjoy lunch at Hickory Park, did a little shopping, and let the kids play mini-golf in the mall. It was a great day and we had lots of fun.

Enjoying lunch at Hickory Park....Mmmm




Tyler also loves to be Daddy's big helper ~ he had fun raking leaves with Kevin. He also had lots of fun jumping into the leaves which got him laughing so hard he couldn't stop. :)

This fall I also had a chance to take Tyler to Aqua Tots ~ a swimming class for Toddlers. Tyler did very well and loves the water. Below he is working on his back float.

I also celebrated my 31st birthday the last week in October. It was a great day/weekend. Kevin's family came and took us out for lunch on my birthday and then my family came for the weekend. I enjoyed a wonderful day of shopping with my Mom and Sisters!!!

I think that sums up the news from Webster City for now. We pray that you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!!!

I also posted some ultrasound pics in the previous post so be sure to take a look at our baby boy. We praise God that he is healthy and are looking forward to March. :)

Ultrasound Pictures

Kevin & I had our 20 week ultrasound last week Wednesday so thought I would share some pictures of our healthy baby boy. Tyler is super excited for the baby to arrive and wants Daddy to put the crib up asap. He also has a name picked out for his new baby brother so we'll see what happens with that. We just hope this excitement continues after the baby arrices. Enjoy the pics!!!

Iowa State Fair

Yes....I am way behind on blogging, but better late than never. We had the chance to go to the Iowa State Fair this year with both families. It is an annual tradition to go with Kevin's family and we always have a good time. My parents were actually in Ames the week of the State Fair because my Dad had to go to school, thus after he was finished with school for the week we enjoyed a day at the fair. It was fun to show them around and we had a great day.

We enjoyed a variety of activities at the fair this year so I will let the pictures explain.

Tyler

......is excited to tell everyone that he is going to be a Big Brother in March!! He loves telling everyone that Mommy has a baby in her tummy. :)

Adventureland Pictures & Daddy's Home

Kevin was gone to MN last week for work ~ this is the 2nd time he has been gone in July so Tyler is really missing his Daddy. Since Kevin got home late Friday night Tyler always wants to be by his Daddy and keeps saying "My Daddy's Home."

On Friday night Tyler & I enjoyed supper with some friends at the Grid Iron. It was a lot of fun. Saturday night we met Kevin's parents and Grandparents in Des Moines for supper and some mini-golf. It was a beautiful evening and everyone had a nice relaxing night.

As promised I have finally posted the pictures from Adventureland. Tyler had a blast at Adventureland as you can see from the pictures below.

Our little tour guide.

That's all for now. Enjoy the nice warm weather and have a great week!!!
