Santa Claus Parade

Last weekend Macy and I headed down to Claresholm, Alberta with Grandma Lamont to visit the Leishmans. We had a great weekend and on Saturday we went to the Fort McLeod Annual Santa Claus Parade. Apparently it is the biggest one in Western Canada. It was great! The weather was nice, the parade wasn't too long, they handed out candy, and best of all we got to see Santa! I would go again.

Waiting for the parade to start! Cousins Henry, Anderson, and Ruthie, and Auntie Jen. Macy is under Ruthie in the double stroller.


Hanging out!
So excited for the candy! One of the floats was for an 'Eden's Funeral Home' and they even threw out individually packaged mints with their name on it. I kept one for Eden's sake.


Ruthie all bundled up.

Some of the fun floats. I didn't get a good picture of Santa, but he was on a good float. The Grinch also came to the parade and he looked pretty cool.

A good Daddy and Daughter shot.

Poor Macy has been a little sick with a cold this week, which is hopefully going away. Chris had Thursday and Friday off and we enjoyed having him around. We rented 'Grown-Ups' the movie and had a good laugh. We still have no snow on the ground and are having great November weather. Only one week until Harry Potter 7 Part One comes out and we already have our babysitter booked; thanks Grandma Lamont!

Macy Visits Winnipeg

It was really nice to be able to make it out to Winnipeg in October for Grandma Cutts' funeral. It was a very nice funeral and I was glad I could be with so much family. Macy was an excellant traveler. She was great on the plane, she slept well the whole week, and didn't even mind being bathed in the kitchen sink!

Unfourtunately I didn't take many pictures, but here a few of Macy and the friends she has.

This is one of many similar shots of Begonia holding a sleeping and very content Macy.

Macy and Eden.

Eden is such a good helper with Macy and always made sure she had her pacifer when needed. She also dressed and helped changed many a diapers with Grandma.

Thanks for having us Grandma and Grandpa!

What a wonderful girl!

Well Macy is three months already and we still love her, so I guess we'll keep her! She's more like 2.5 in these pictures, but you get the idea of her cuteness. She is such a welcome addition to our family. She is a very happy baby and gives away smiles all the day long. She likes to talk a lot to us and holds her head up really well. She is a good sleeper and despite what Grandpa Cutts might say, she sleeps best when she is all wrapped up and warm. She is only 3 months, but has been on an airplane and to a funeral. She eats well and is a growing baby. Keep up the good work Macy!

Costumes

Our halloween costumes, we were caveman and Macy was a flower (obviously). A friend lent us the costume for Macy.

Pretty flower!

Happy Halloween!

Some halloween photos for you to enjoy!

I don't think I like this.

I really don't like this!!
