Happy Birthday Frank!

Who is that boy
standing next to me?
Could it be Frank
who's 53!!!!

I know, lame poem, but don't we look cute? How much do you want to bet that Mom made those little coats for us? Do you remember the squirrel lamp? Anyway, hope you have a great brithday tomorrow!

Some Christmas pics

We had Christmas dinner with the Lewis family again this year - our new tradition since our family is getting smaller. There were 11 of us for dinner including Karen's parents, 2 of her aunts and her uncle and Karlea. Brenton was obviously taking the picture.

We had the Jonitz family over for supper yesterday - a few hours with the NBGBs! Here mama Silvia, Luca and Aaron play with some toys.

Some winter stuff

I know I said that I don't like snow; however, our snow is getting a little 'dirty' and we could use some fresh stuff to clean things up a bit. This pic is taken out our diningroom window after I threw some bread out for the bunnies. Notice all the little round bits of 'dirt'.

Woke to this view this morning when I opened the bedroom blind. The fog on the river is so pretty.



Half an hour later (and 3 kms on my treadmill!) the fog is starting to clear a bit and the sun is coming out.

Happy Days

Gary took this pic of me and Aaron reading - I think this is about the 8th time I read the new 'Thomas ' book to him on Wednesday - he loves that book.

Last Sunday we were invited to the Jonitz house for supper and I got the special treat of reading Aaron and Luca their bedtime story. Me in my glory - a NBGB on each knee!

Oh No! It's the ladder thing again!

So we put up the Christmas lights last Wednesday and Gary has another helper for ladder duty. No kidding - Aaron would have gone to the top if we would have let him! This little monkey has no fear of heights at all.

Gary really did put the lights up himself and just in time - we are getting a pretty good dumping of snow today. It is kind of pretty, but, Frank can still have it all until Christmas Eve.
