Allison's First Day!

 Allison started her first day in the preschool 3 year old class! It's hard to believe that she's already moving up to the 3 year old class, our baby isn't a baby anymore. She did really well on her first day even though she was a bit unsure of her new surroundings. We know she'll end up loving her new class!

Much Love,

8th Annual Petropolitan

This Thursday night was the 8th annual Petropolitan fundraiser to support Kitties & Kanines Veterinary Clinic. Jennifer has been involved with the board for 5 years now and she was elected as the chairman for this year's event. In the middle of a renovation and school starting next week, it ended up being a little busy! Even with all the craziness surrounding the event, the event itself was the most successful Petropolitan yet, raising more than $155,000 to support the clinic! We look forward to many more successful Petropolitans. The board has asked Jennifer to chair the event again next year...she has politely (?) declined! She's looking forward to working the sidelines next year!

 

Much Love,

Ledezma Visit/Renovations!

Abigail and Allison's schools were each closed for one week at the end of summer in preparation for fall, unfortunately they were closed on different weeks. We had originally planned for them to go visit Grandma & Grandpa, but with the new house Grandpa offered to come help do some of the work while Grandma watched the kids. They also brought Seth and Nate and the girls were excited to have visitors for two weeks! We got so much done at the house while they were here, we just stayed at the house and worked into the wee hours each night and we don't know what we would have done without Grandpa's help. He painted and replaced the faucets in our bathroom. Papa let us borrow his ladders for painting and figured out a way for us to get into some hard to reach places. We are so thankful to have them here to help! We are lucky, lucky people to have such wonderful parents/in-laws!

Much Love,

New House

The Ledezmas are officially homeowners again! We've decided to put down roots here and now that the girls are getting a little older, the space of our current home was getting a bit small. We are going to miss the duplex, because it is so beautiful and is designed just to our taste. We're also going to miss sharing a backyard with BB and Papa. The girls love walking across the backyard to visit in the evenings and on the weekends. However, we are very much looking forward to what will be our forever home. There will be a lot of late nights in store for us as we begin the renovating process (our fourth in seven years together!), but it will all be worth it in the end. Right after closing our agent gave us a lovely housewarming present so we immediately headed to the house to celebrate!

Much Love,

Dentist Time

The girls had their check-ups this week and Allison had her first real cleaning. She did great! We were surprised she sat still through the whole thing! Dentist says the girls teeth are super healthy!

2017 Cruise!

We took our family cruise with the Altmans and Cains last week. It was so fun and many thanks to BB and Papa for making it all possible. The accommodations were amazing, the girls had a connecting room to our room, which was nice so mommy & daddy could stay up later than the kiddos. We sent the girls off to the kids club everyday and they really loved it, any time we picked them up, they immediately wanted to go back! For the adults we dined in each of the specialty restaurants, by far our favorite was the Italian! Then on the nights we weren't eating in the specialty restaurants we played cards. BB & Papa taught us their favorite card game, hand and foot. It was a lot of fun! Thank you to BB & Papa for the special memories!

Much Love,

July 4th!

We spent July 4th at the lakehouse with BB and Papa. Abigail wanted to celebrate her birthday at the lakehouse instead of at home so we had a quiet celebration with cookie cake and presents at the lakehouse when we got there. She loves swimming and has been begging for a mermaid tail. Daddy found these neat tails that are very authentic and work! She looked so cute swimming in her mermaid tail. Only problem, is that now Allison wants one too. She's got to get a bit better at swimming before we'll go down that path!

 

On the 4th we got to watch the fireworks from BB & Papa's boat. We had the best seat in the house! It was so fun watching them and the best part is that we didn't have traffic on the way home! It was a very nice, relaxing 4th for the Ledezmas.

Much Love,
