It's Really Snowing!!








We had a rather big snowfall for our area, this past Monday.  The kids even got to make a snowman which turned out to be more like a tower when they decided to see if they could make the world's tallest snowman.  Of course, after playing out in the snow they had hot chocolate with whipped cream because we ran out of marshmellows.

Birthdays, Christmas, New Years. . . .Oh My!








Just Cause I Know Hubs Wants To Show His Friends

Sophie and Daddy went to a show of Captain C and Duster D and even got their picture taken with them.  Bailey didn't want to go so we stayed outside riding bicycles.

Family Picture?

The kids went crazy with the camera the other day.  Bailey took a shot of the three of us and Sophie returned the favor by taking a picture of Bailey's jacket.

I Wanna Remember This

Bailey, singing in the shower:

We wish you a merry Christmas and a happy new ear,
Good timings we bring to you and your kid,
Good timings to you, whatever you are,
Good timings for Christmas and a happy new eeeeeaaaarrrrrr!

Picture Dump

 Hubs is so good about taking pictures and so, when he said it was probably time to update the old blog, I had to agree.

 As our final good bye to summer we got some fireworks for the kids and took them to a nearby park.  Probably not legal, but with no yard we had to improvise.  We were super careful (although Hubs did burn his finger once- or twice) and made sure to clean up our mess before we left.  This pic cracks me up- just look at those faces.  Bailey all cautious and perhaps a bit worried and Sophie almost bored with waiting for something to happen.




These were taken at the beginning of November.  Having fun just being kids!

Close Animal Encounters

Last Sunday, we went to a drive through safari park. We bought animal feed and waited for the animals to approach our car. Can't you just tell that this one was a messy, slobbery eater?

There was also a little zoo that had some cool animals, including this kangaroo momma and baby.



Sophie as Steve Irwin and Abbie sneaking into the picture.





Another attempt at getting all three kids together for a picture. At least, the turtle stood still.







Bailey feeding the potbelly pigs.










Sophie and Abbie trying their hand at it too.










I just liked the way this kinda looked like Siamese giraffes.













My mama feeding a llama.















That's me feeding an ostrich.

A "Fair" Day

Sophie showing off her prize dolphin that she got for making the bell ring with a sledge hammer.

Bailey sat this one out, but Sophie really enjoyed her first roller coaster.



The bat Bailey won from the same sledge hammer game as Sophie.














These were spinning dragons- kinda like the tea cups at Disney Land.

Sidewalk Chalk



Reason number 402 I wish we had a yard at home.



You So Silly

The kid's first experience with silly string.

Abbie taking a break and getting all tangled up.



Right before cleaning it all up.





The "New" Park

This was the best picture I could get of cousin Abbie. She was a woman with a mission to go down the slide as many times as possible.
