As many of you know, we have accepted an offer on our home. It is with mixed feelings that we remember the past six years and look forward to the future. Jeffrey and I purchased a house in January 2004 and made it our home. I have been taking many pictures lately that will hold the memories that we have made and remind us of the times that we have treasured at 9 East Hughes Street.

Merry Christmas!! From holiday concerts, family parties, hunting a tree, to making gingerbread houses, visits from the Tooth Fairy and Santa, and enjoying our time together opening presents and sharing stories from past holidays, we have had a great holiday season. A few of us fell ill this Christmas, but recovered quickly to enjoy our time off together. Where does the time go? This Fall we spent some time adjusting to Ellie being in a cast. She broke her ankle while playing outside. She was a real trooper and really did not miss a beat. She also had a Thanksgiving Dinner at school, with lots of arts and crafts. We shared many fun times together, enjoying each others company while learning, growing and healing together. In Kindergarten they celebrated Halloween with a Scarecrow day. Ellie made a great little scarecrow. At Montessori, Parker enjoyed dressing up like a clown for their Big Top celebration. Ellie has also started Daisey Girl Scouts and has enjoyed learning about map reading. We are two very proud parents!! Ellie sang “Puff the Magic Dragon” in the Wellsville American Idol Contest. She placed 2nd out of 36 children. She was the youngest contestant and did such a great job!!! : ) This week was fire prevention week and a celebration of Fall at the LaBenne home. We visited with firemen, played on Belfast’s new playground and made homemade apple sauce for the first time. Our first week of school was a success. Ellie started Kindergarten and Parker Preschool. Parker’s quote of the week was, “Mom, guess what my Montessori teachers let me do!! They let me wear my school shoes…outside!!!” Ellie said that “they beat her up” at school. She was super tired!!! 2009-09-11 16:16 Happy 3rd Birthday Parker - Or as Parker says… “I’m phree!” We had a wonderful evening celebrating Parker’s Birthday with friends. I can’t belive how time does fly by!! I love you buddy! What a week we have had… after returning from a week in Texas the storms soon followed. Our neighbor’s tree was hit by lightening taking out power to our neighborhood for about 2 and a half days. We had a good time watching them clean up and put everything back together. 2009-08-13 06:15 Our favorite weekend of the summer is the Wellsville Balloon Rally. These photographs speak for themselves. Enjoy.. |
