Christmas program' 09

The girls had their Christmas program December 18th. It was so cute and all the kids sang very loud!!!

We got to see Santa and both the girls were very happy about that. We had went to the library the night before and Alyssa didn't want anything to do with him. She started crying and hide behind me. Chastity of course had no problem with sitting on his lap. But then Friday night, she couldn't wait to see him and sit on his lap. I think she just wanted the candy cane.

 

 

 

 

Merry Christmas' 09

 

 

 

Cookies and Gingerbread Making

Friday the girls and I made cookies with my mom. We did sugar Christmas cookies and gingerbread men cookies with Hersey Candy Cane metaled on them. Ali had made the gingerbread cookies before so it was in her memory. The girls had a lot of fun making them and we talk about Ali while doing them.

Sunday we made Gingerbread house's with Abby, Christen, and Kim. We had stay at their house after Christmas at Aunt Beth's, I'll have those pictures later.

We had a great time being with Kim and the girls watch some Christmas movies. Abby and the girls had a dance party. Abby played a lot of games with them. Christen couldn't do a lot with them because she had foot surgery and can't be on her foot for 3 months. So they loved on her a lot.

The girls thought the gingerbread houses were pretty neat and fun to make. Alyssa's fell apart on the way home but we super glued back together. Those things are a lot to keep together then you think they would be.

I love being at Kim's so many great memories there from when we were younger we'd go there 2 weeks over the summer.

Thanks again Kim and family for letting us come visit.

Little ladies

My little girls are becoming little ladies.

Alyssa is into doing her all on her own all the time. Which I'm fine with but sometimes it looks a little crazy, but I just let it go. She is growing up and is becoming more independent. I know that in the long run it will have paid off.In this hair style she had 20 bobbie pins. She also is taking showers now... no more baths. It didn't like it at first but now she loves it and can't wait to shower.

Chastity is also taking showers, she loved from the start and would stay in there for hours if I'd let her. And as soon as she gets out she runs to the corn stove and sits there for 15 minutes. She says she doesn't need a towel because the stove drys her and her hair.

I'm so happy that I have two very Independent little ladies.

Pics

Here's a few pictures off of my cell phone. I love the one that I took of Alyssa and Paisley I for got about it. Going to get it printed and give it to her for Christmas she still wants her to come back.
Snowmen faces my mom made for the girls she give them an ornament every year.

Thanksgiving 09

Thanksgiving was wonderful. So glad to be able to be with all the family.
On Thanksgiving day we celebrated with the whole Eash family at our house. I cook my first turkey and it turned out GREAT. It was a lot easier then I thought it would be.
The girls were so excited to be having a party at our house, (that's what they called Thanksgiving.)
Then on Saturday we went to Heather and Micheal's for the Morgan's side Thanksgiving. And we also celebrate Elliot's birthday. I can't believe that she is going to be TWO this week. She has grown so much in a year. She is so lovey with Chad and plays great with the girls.
I'm so thankful that we have such a close family and that we are all able to be together. We've had some hard times, but God has also blessed us.

Pre School Sunday 09'

Yesterday was Pre School Sunday at the church were the girls attend. We had a little photo shoot at home before done by Daddy. The girls loved all the pictures we were taking of them. And they loved getting up in front of everyone and singing their hearts out. After service we go down to their class room for cookies punch, and talk with the other families.

Mudslide


My birthday was wonderful this year. Ya I'm a little late on this post. My birthday was October 22.
Thank you to all who sent emails, phone calls, comments, birthday cards, gifts, and taking me out.
Thursday the 22:
The girls and I went out to lunch together. Something that we don't do a lot but Alyssa said it was my birthday and I shouldn't have to cook for her and Chastity.
Then Chad took me out to dinner at my favorite place Hacienda. I love their chips and salsa, the drink, and mudslide. I hadn't had one of those in a long time and Chad had never had one so we got that instead of the birthday cake. He and the girls got me a colts sweatshirt, waffle/sandwich maker, beautiful cards, and a gift card to Target. I was so happy with all my gifts. I've been wanting a waffle maker for a long time now. The girls want waffles every morning because you can make normal waffles or a duck and cow shape waffles. So I have got a lot of use out of it already.
Saturday 24:
A few of us went out and had a few drinks to celebrate my Birthday more. I'm not a big drinker at all, but when everyone knows it's your Birthday the drinks just keep on coming. So I had more then normal for me. It was nice just to have fun and be with family and close friends.
Thanks again everyone.

Pumpkin Carving

We carved pumpkins Thursday after school. It was so nice out so we did them outside. Chastity wouldn't clean hers out so Alyssa did hers and Chastity's. Are pumpkins are a little green but that's cause there home grown from my brothers garden. Not that we care if there a little green, we still had fun! Chastity's is the cat and Alyssa's is the dog. Alyssa even help with the carving.
Yesterday was Chastity fall party at school so she got to dress up. And today was Alyssa's fall party. They came home with tons of candy.

Darrick A Wright

Darrick and sister Erica

My cousin Darrick was killed in a car accident early Sunday morning. He was only 19 years old and was in the Air Force. He had his head on his shoulders and was going in the right direction. This is very hard and all the family are very stunned. As of right now we don't have a lot of information because of the investigation.
I have added the article from the newspaper in Dover.

DOVER -- Three people, including two active-duty airmen at Dover Air Force Base, died in a single-car crash early Sunday morning in west Dover.

According to Dover police, the men were traveling west on Hazlettville Road (Del. 15) in a 2001 Ford Mustang at a high rate of speed. As it passed through the Mifflin Road intersection, the car ran off the north side of the road, struck a road sign, then ran into a utility pole. All three victims were ejected from the car.

The victims were identified as Airman Darrick Wright, 19,
and Airman First Class Sean McDowell, 24, both of Dover Air Force Base,
and Jorma Reeser, 22, of Dover.

Pending the results of tests being conducted by the state medical examiner's office, Counselman said he could not say who was driving the car or whether alcohol played a role in the crash. Two of the victims were pronounced dead at the scene. The third was pronounced dead at Kent General Hospital in Dover.Lt. Brian Maguire, DAFB spokesman, confirmed Monday that Wright and McDowell were stationed at the base. He said base officials had sent a team of their own to inspect the crash site.

"Yes, we had personnel there at the scene as part of a safety investigation," he said, adding that he was conferring with the base's legal department to determine what other information might be released.

Alyssa's 5th bithday party

We had Alyssa's birthday party yesterday. She wanted me to make her a pony cake so i did. It was a lot harder then I thought it would be. But she loved it so it made me happy. She got so many nice things and money that she wants to put back and save it. This was the first year she invited friends from school. So she was so excited for all of her family and friends to be together. Thank you for coming out and spending the day with us. Alyssa didn't want to go to bed last night because she wanted to play w/ all her new gifts.

Field Trip to Kercher's

On Thursday the girls had a field trip to kercher's orchard. They got to go on a hay ride, pick a pumpkin, and pick an apple. The weather was a little cool but we still had fun. It made the ending of the long hard week nice.
Alyssa has been sick all week with allergies, sinus infection, and asthma. Once we went to the doc with just talking the medcines one time she wasn't couching her head off. She was diagnosed with asthma last week. When she gets colds she coughs and then it really makes the asthma act up.I felt so bad at one point she was couching ever 12 seconds. And she wasn't sleeping and either was I. For three days now she has slept 12 hours plus. I'm hopping that we have it all under control now.

Alyssa's is FIVE

Our little Alyssa turned five years old yesterday. How time has gone by so fast. In the past five years she has learned to walk, talk, got a little sister, been and fished Pre-school, lost a wonderful Auntie, lost a grandma, learned to write her full name, started Pre-K, made friends, and a lot more. It's hard to believe that she has done and learned so many things.
We started our day with chocolate pancakes with bacon and eggs. Opened gifts, that Daddy pick out by himself. Then we watch her new movie has a family. Played outside, made brownies. Then we made her favorite meal beef and noodles with mashed potatoes and corn. And then she got too eat a brownie after dinner. These were all the things she wanted to do today so we did them.
She also got a card from Great Na-Na with TEN dollars, she thought that was so cool. Phone call where my mom sang to her and Chad's mom sent her a video text singing to her. She had a smile on her face all day long.
I still can hear Chad's voice when I called him at work the day I went into labor. I called him and said it's time...what do you mean it's time. Because I was suppose to be induced two days later.
It's funny because Chastity was so into her pancake she couldn't but it down but still sang to her sister.
Alyssa Rene Eash came into this world October 4, 2004 @ 9:21pm.
