What Is All This White Stuff?

We finally had a sunny day (and "warm" at 10 degrees!) so I bundled Ellie up to go out and explore all the snow we've been getting.

She was not impressed.

Help! I've fallen and I can't get up!

Our New Wheels

Here is a shot of our new car, for those who haven't seen her yet. I'm not sure we've really settled on a name for her yet, but for now it's Dafne, because that was the best we could come up with from her license plate. It's been nice to have her around, and we especially feel safer driving to So Jo in her.

Family Time

I've been meaning to post for a very long time, and am finally getting around to it. So, sorry about multiple posts in one day. These are pictures from the Wild Animal Park in San Diego. Brielle was pretty excited to see all the animals, and we actually were able to capture some rare smiles.

Animal Fun

At the Santa Anita Horse Track. With Mom, Aunt Megan and Cousin Gavin.

Aunt my Great, Great Aunt Eileens Ranch. I loved the dog, but wasn't too sure how I felt about the cow.

We went to see the Floats for the Parade of Roses. This is the FTD float before any of the flowers or seeds were put on.
Same float only one week later...it is amazing how much last minute work there is to make such beautiful floats.

Cousin Time=Piano Time

I think cousins are great! I was intrigued by how Liam and Lucas could move around, I'm thinking about learning how to walk...but it is so much easier to have my Mom take me everywhere.

Liam, Lucas and I

Liam and I with our matching almost smiles

Liam and I again, we graduated to the real piano, which is so much more fun.

Great Grandparents

I got to be with 5 of my 6 great grandparents during Christmas. We just didn't get a chance to see "Grandmother" Christensen, but hopefully will see her soon.

With Great Grandpa Baker and Cousin Liam

At the Wild Animal Park in San Diego with Great Grandparents Vov and Yogi.

The whole Finlay Family! (I had already gone to bed for the night, so I pulled out of sleep for the picture, but it was worth it to get everyone together)

Good memories

We had a great Christmas!

















Everyone helping Jonathan with his Star Wars Legos.


















What is it with my kids and bananas?
