Nice Hair!

We enjoyed our first Manitoba Moose game at the MTS centre with Christie and Jonathan.....it was early in the first period when Savannah showed up on the big screen in the arena. Ear plugs were a must, especially when the Moose scored!

Savannah's First Christmas......

We packed up the car and headed west to spend Christmas with the Boden's in Saskatchewan.



We travelled along the Yellow head.....which for those of you that have not travelled #16, it is flat with a few trees. That is about it. It is a very lovely drive though.......


We stopped in a tiny town called Bredenbury (located between Yorkton, and Wynyard) where everyone has lights on their house, and the town square has a giant snowman. It was spectacular to see such a great amount of Christmas spirit!


Santa??? Is that really YOU???


Savannah loved climbing on the gifts........



Wahooooo.....new toys!


I love my new penguin.....thank you Uncle Dick!


Opening more gifts......but we're not too sure about what the procedure is!


Thank you Santa for the cool wooden blocks!!! I also love Julian's scary dinosaur.


Savannah loved picking decorations off of the tree......

The classic family photo in front of the fireplace......

Jeff spending some cuddle time with Julian and Savannah....the snow globe was quite intriguing for both of them.


Here we are with Savannah's Great Grandparents, June and John Boden.


On Boxing day the Boden's all came over for a Christmas celebration. It was fabulous to have the family together. Grandpa John brought out the accordion and played a few songs....it was like old times when all of us kids would dance around wildly. The great grand kids are much more subdued........

One of my favourite photos....

This is one of my most favourite photos. I'm not sure why....it just is. Maybe it is the way the light shines on her beautiful face, or the way her feet are tucked under her bottom, or the innocent gaze that she has. She has begun to transition to a little girl who loves to explore, crawl, climb, wave good-bye, and giggle and giggle and giggle. I love it, but I also love when the baby shines through......like when she is tired and crawls over to me to cuddle on the couch and nurse herself to sleep. How precious our Savannah is.

Jeff graduates from Chiropractic college!!!!

December 15th, 2006 was a great day in the Seney family.......Jeff is the first (and hopefully not the last) Chiropractor. Many years of hard work have paid off....here are some of the celebration photos!!!

The Bodens visit Winnipeg

Savannah's Grandma and Grandpa Boden (Norma and Dave) and cousin Julian made the treck east to spend some time with Savannah and me (Karen).....we had a nice visit and tons of fun!!!



Looks like Savannah has Grandma Norma's eyes!


Everyone loves the occasional bath in the sink......especially Savannah.

Julian is a great little helper. He was quite disappointed that he couldn't bathe in the sink.


Julian says......"I'm having a baby!"
