Sprink on a little Pepper

We have added a little Pepper to our Stew called Norris Love!!! Yes, we got a puppy and we named her Pepper.

She is doing quite well. She is getting used to having 2 little girls to play with. Sometimes she is not quite sure what to think of them though.
I had fun yesterday having a little photo shot with her. I am not sure if she likes cameras yet but she will get used to them.
She does however love to chew....Table legs, shoe laces, paper, twigs, and bones.
She will beat this thing if it is the last thing she does.
Almost has it!!!
It is all hers now. Arrrrr

Winter Park 2008

We just got home from our 2008 trip to Winter Park Colorado. We had a fun and exhausting trip. The girls skied wonderfully and both are very close to parallel skiing all the time.Here is Katie showing me what a wonderful skier she is and that she can get all the lift all by her self.

Erin and Larry skied together on our last day. They were all over the place.
Larry and Erin relaxing together during lunch.

And I have no idea where Erin is. Looks mighty high to me.

What will it be like to be 6

Today I asked Katie what she thought it would be like to be 6....I shall paraphrase....



You are bigger.




You get to talk alot.

I think this one means that she wants to be an animal.

And 6 year olds think a lot.

100 Finds

As some of you know Larry and Erin have become fierce Geocachers and found there 100th cache today. It has been fun for them to work together and they both look forward to.

Christmas with Us

What a holiday we had. All the fun started Christmas Eve with Santa Watches on the computer, The Night Before Christmas story reading and we can not forget gifts. Katie and Erin chose to open the gifts that they got for each other which seems to have turned into the tradition. Both girls gave such thoughtful presents, Erin found a Littlest Pet Shop camp site for Katie and Katie insisted on getting Erin an Electricity Science kit. What sweet girls.



Larry and Erin are like 2 peas in a Pod....Hamming it up for the camera



Christmas morning was full of fun and smiles that did not end with the human members. Skipper was so happy to have a new bone to play with but only if Larry would play with him.


I got the biggest kick out of our present to my parents, Grandma and Grandpa, and so did they. What you are looking at are Granny Racers. 2 Little Old Ladies racing around a track racing. Too funny.


Larry just loves his girls!!!!


I feel like I should add so many more pictures but I am afraid it will take up way too much space. Check out some of my other favorites on Me,Myself and I.

Merry Christmas To All

Katie's Gingerbread House

For Katie's Class Christmas Party they made Gingerbread Houses. She had a wonderful time and decorated it all by her self. I helped ice the house to hurry the process along because there were other kids that needed to do theirs but other than that she had her ideas and went with them. Maybe when she grows up she will be a home designer or Architect.
