Bella and her Ball
This ball is probably the best $5 we have ever spent. Bella LOVES it!
Ms. Bella will be a year old in 2 weeks. It's hard to believe. No more puppy food!
We have sprouts!
Yesterday, our lettuce sprouted!
This morning, our tomatoes and 2 cucumbers sprouted as well.
This is getting exciting!

Container Gardening
We decided to start a container garden this year. We have been doing some research and then Amanda picked up some more tips at an Early Childhood conference this morning. We got things rolling today.....

Looking Back on 2010
2010 was an eventful year for us.
We got engaged in March
Married April 23rd
I graduated with my Masters in May
We moved to Rogers and did a lot of painting
In June we adopted Bella
In August we took a road trip to Colorado
I started teaching at Head Start
and Jesse had a Transformers birthday party.
We walked Lake Atalanta everyday
In October we had fun decorating for Halloween
November was a very busy month for us. I found out I got the job at USI and started in 2 weeks!
So we packed, had Thanksgiving with Jesse's family,
and I moved to Indiana. Jesse and Bella came 3 weeks later, after he finished finals.
In December, we decorated for Christmas and explored Evansville.
Happy New Year! Hopefully 2011 will be a great year for all of us.
