A Special Event with Papa Chris

Thank you Papa Chris for treating us to the Russian Ballet to see Cinderella. We had so much fun dressing up, dinning at the Bistro, and of course watching the special event.

Sage loves Puppies!

Once Sage found out our neighborhood family friend's dog had puppies, there was no stopping her in wanting to see the 2 day old pups right away. The puppies are the size of a small hamster. They are PomChis, a cross between Pomeranian and Chihuahua. Sage talks about them daily and wants to visit with them often (did I mention that Sage will make a perfect Veterinarian). As you can see from the pictures, Sage was all smiles as she held the precious little guys.

Jade sings the ABC's

Jade has learned her ABC's. It's the cutest thing ever to hear her little voice sing. Take a listen. Remember to stop my background music from my PlayList on the right side of the page.

Snow Day

It was a beautiful day near Donner Summit. We went tubing at Soda Springs. The sun was shining and the snow was brilliant white given the fresh snow storm from the previous day. This was Jade's first visit to the snow. Jade did well for the first 2 hours and then she was ready to leave. Since she was bundled up in all of the snow clothes, she was unable to suck her fingers...which is her comfort. It made her quite cranky.

Sage making snow anglesJade all bundled up in snow clothes. She resembled the kid from A Christmas Story movie. She looked like this giant puff ball! It was hilarious...maybe the reason she was cranky. Sage having fun on the snow mobile.

Devin's turn on the snow mobile
