The Osborne Family

Our vacation to Las Vegas and Utah

2008-04-30T10:03:00.000-07:00

For our family vacation, we went to LV to see Auntie Lexi and Trevor, then to Utah to see Nonna, Papa and the Osborne family, then back to LV (to break up the drive). We were gone about a week. We had so much fun!

In Las Vegas, Tanner got to sit on (not ride) Trevor's motorcycle. He got to slide down the stairs with Lexi on an air mattress. Lexi made me a great birthday dinner - with crabs-Yum! We went to a really nice park and got to see a car show. Tanner met "Lightning McQueen" (wink-wink). He really liked all of Trevor's different helmets.

In Utah, Tanner LOVED the fish tank. Nonna let him feed the fish and he would just sit and stare at them. He had a blast with all his cousins. He and Nate would chase each other with shopping carts/strollers. On my birthday, we went to an Aquarium where Tanner met Nemo. The Osborne's really made my birthday special. Tanner went to Nonna's preschool and made a duckie. He also got to sit on Uncle Jonny's motorcycle (again, not ride). We visited with Grandma Lee. It even snowed one day! Tanner loved playing with Nonna and Papa. He played cars with Papa and would copy his laughs. He made Nonna lay on the ground and tickle him. We had such a great time! As always, our vacation went way too fast!!

To mark the 2 year milestone, we went to take portraits. He had so much fun and smiled a lot.

Tanner's 2nd Birthday

2008-04-18T10:34:00.001-07:00

We haven't posted anything in a long time, so Adriane is giving this a shot!! So, Tanner turned the 2 yo on March 3. We had a little birthday party for him on March 2nd at a park by our house. Unfortunately, it was the one night in about 3 mos where it was windy and freezing (for us). Tanner was miserable... he even said to me, "Go home, Mommy. Go home." We moved the party to my parents' house, where we had Ratatouille cake and ice cream and the little ones hit a Nemo pinata. He and his little friends had a blast playing with all his toys at BooBoo and Nam's house. Overall, it was a success, but barely!

McCormick Ranch Christmas Party

2008-01-03T14:27:00.000-08:00

The McComrick Ranch Christmas party was very cold, but a lot of fun. Tanner was able to meet Elmo, Cookie Monster, Scoobie Doo, Clifford, and was able to see Santa and Bob the Builder. We had a great time going through the Christmas wonderland on a train. We also went on a Merry-go-round. Tanner had a great time, as did mom and dad.

Christmas at the Osborne's

2008-01-03T14:20:00.001-08:00

Christmas was good to us this year. Santa came, along with all of Tanner's friends and family, and Tanner was certainly spoiled. He really enjoyed his clothes from Nona and Papa, his Bob the builder work bench from his aunties, his Thomas the Train from Grammy and Auntie, and his Go Diego Go ATV. It is fun to watch such a little kid ride around on his ATV and Thomas the train. He certainly is a big boy. The thing we enjoyed the most was spending some quality time with eachother.

Daddy's New Car

2007-11-02T16:13:00.000-07:00

So as everyone knows, the Acura Integra was stolen and destroyed. We had quite the drama with the insurance company and got far less than we thought we would, but we also were able to get a good deal on a new car through the insurance company. We got a Camry with leather interior, moon-roof, wood grain, etc. The Integra was deffinately fun to drive, but the Camry has a much softer ride. It is fun to have a new toy...just won't be fun to make the payments.

2007-11-02T16:00:00.000-07:00

We certainly had a great time trick-or-treating. Tanner wore a T-shirt to school that said "I love my Mummy" during the day to school and wore his Nemo outfit at night. He really liked carrying his pumpkin bucket around and felt like such a big boy going up to the doors and saying "trick-or-treat!" It was a fun night.

2007-11-02T15:54:00.000-07:00

We decided to go with a graveyard theme this year. We have three gravestones for each of us...Tan Tan's is the smallest one in the middle. There are also three ghosts floating by the tree. There are also eight lights in the shape of skulls that light up the pathway to the house, shown to the right. Tanner thinks the skulls are "funny faces" that smile and would love to go laugh at them everytime he saw them. He would also like to go play with them.

Tanner's Halloween Party

2007-10-28T15:55:00.000-07:00

Tanner went to his "Little Gym" Halloween Party. He dressed up as Nemo. He also was able to see his friend Tyler who dressed up as Elmo. Tanner, Mom, and Dad had so much fun.

Utah Trip

2007-10-24T21:56:00.001-07:00

Tanner, Mom, and Dad had so much fun in Utah. Tanner really had fun playing with all of his cousins. It was also fun to see his aunts and uncles and Grandma and Grandpa.

Tanner is getting bigger

2007-10-24T21:53:00.000-07:00

Tanner, or as he likes to be called, Tan-Tan is growing up so fast. He likes to wear his hat because it makes him feel like a big boy. He also really likes to comb his hair and get nice and dressed up before he leaves the house. He always likes to look his best for his friends and female admirers.

Tanner's first party

2007-05-04T19:37:00.000-07:00

Tanner is now one. He got his hair cut for the first time for his party. He loves being the center of attention and absolutely loved his party.
