Funny hair-do - she calls this her princess hair. Its actually hair extentions of mine. lol
helping me put up the christmas tree - needless to say she didnt help for long because she couldnt stand the texture of the tree branches
here we are making christmas cookies
Allison and her big girl bed!
Allison went as a little witch this year. For almost two weeks straight, I have been telling her that the witch says
We went Trick or treating with my cousins kids. Jackson aka Elmo and Carter aka Packer Player
After every house, Elmo would take a little break and sit down to see what he all had in his elmo basket:)
We were finally able to take a trip to the Zoo, as a family! 
The baby tigers were so cute. We made it there just in time to pet them. If we would have gotten there an hour earlier, we could have played with them.
This flippin' Tortoise freaked me out! lol It really liked the ice cream cone and would follow anyone who had one - Allison wanted to ride him and of course pet him
This picture was taken before her haircut. - I just had them even everything out.
she did pretty well for her first haircut. Especially, since she had no nap!:) - she didnt cry at all, just got a little wiggly. - she kept calling the cape her fish dress and still brings the fish dress up when a haircut is mentioned. So, i have a feeling, the next time she gets her haircut, she may want to wear that same fish cape/dress.
Allison helping me wash the stroller...
then she decided to wash her car. she loved washing her car
WE didnt feel like putting a swimming suit on this day...
Allison is saying, "look mamma, I wash my butt".:)
We took a little trip to Iowa in August... 
we spent one day at the beach with my cousin Heather and her two kids...
Fair Time. She loved the fair! but was a little too excited there and tried running away from us a couple times
We had a suprise visitor this day... my cousin needed a sitter for a few hours. After lunch, we went for a walk down to the dock, so Carter and Allie cud feed the fish, some saltine crackers. They both had a great time until Loki decided he wanted some food too, and he went and stood in the water and scared all the little fish away. So, then it was time to go back home and play in the sandbox - they had a great time together
July 3rd - We went to my aunt Susie's house to hangout and watch Shawano's fireworks. Allie got to play with her second cousin, Carter. They were taking turns playing peek-a-boo behind the tree
Carter and Allie play really well together. 
Finally it was time for the Fireworks. Allie was scared at first but never cried. We were trying to get the kids to say Ooh Aah! after each firework, but Allie would always say Ooh BIG MESS! LOL I suppose it was a big mess in the sky:)
Holding on tight to gma and papa while watching the fireworks
July 4th -When everyone woke up the next day, we had breakfast and then Allie was able to enjoy spending time with my cousin Erics little girl, Emma. Allie is quite the little helper when it comes to babies. 
June 25th - Allison's gmpa Al and Gma Mary came from Iowa to visit us and Neil's brother Charlie came along to help with building our garage. Our nephew Devin, who lives in Texas, is a very lean and tall 6ft 5 inch, 15 year old! also came cuz he is staying the summer with gmpa Al and gma Mary. Charlie had his kids along too:). So, Allison had lots of play time with her cousins that she doesnt see very often. Devin 15, Jake 13, and Lillianna 3
