New Skier

We prepared ourselves for a very short ski trip (luckily the ski hill is 15 min. from home), but Claire LOVED skiing. She had the biggest smile on her face all day. Anna was not so pleased with waiting at the bottom of the hill.

Christmas

It was great to see so many family and friends this holiday season!

A group photo of our Santa party. Only a few wise children chose to keep their distance from this character in the beard.

Ryan and the girls in their Christmas fanciness (yes, that includes Anna's Bucky stocking hat).

Giant Gingerbread

Claire, Anna and Brynna spent some time inspecting and devouring Clasen's giant ginger bread house.

Sick Ponies

Claire gathered up her Pretty Ponies and reported, "Some of my ponies are sick; they have the swine flu". Four-year-olds are up on their communicable diseases.

Christmas Card Sneak Peak

Cute, no?

Our Little Pumpkins

Our two pumpkins. Above is Anna, this Halloween at 18 months. Below is Claire at 14 months. They both like to laugh, and don't mind being dressed as a pumpkin!

Wow, our hallway is much improved with some paint!

Halloween

We Trick-or-Treated with the Andres family again this year. Check out these cuties -- makes you want to hand over your candy bowl, right?




Our Trick-or-Treaters return. Anna had already broken into her loot (check out the Cheetoh stained hands and cheeks!).

In our pre-Halloween celebrating Anna dressed as a cheerleader. Here is photographic evidence. Halloween night was a tad chilly for the cheerleader gear.

Hope you all had a great Halloween, and got the candy you were hoping for!
