Spring Snow Trip!

We were missing the mountains, so decided to squeeze in one last trip before the snow all melts! It was simply wonderful! divine! beautiful! relaxing! funny! warm & lovely!

Thank you for sharing your cabin and family time with us!

First Ski!

My favorite cabin photo...

Spence was sound asleep and CC crawled under his blanket and curled up at his feet! She's getting the hang of "cabin life"!

On their way to the village... note that sweet baby bump!

Sledding with daddy!

Mommy gets a boost!

Taking in the scenery... note the pine reflection!

Solo Run

Lunch Break!

Celebrating!!!

Making purple banana stew!

Grandpa trying out the snow shoes

Mischievous Grandma!

Goodbye!

First Spring Picnic!

Spring is here!

CoCo's at a funny stage where she won't really let me take her photo.

My best effort...

Graci is OK with photos, but she NEVER looks as she's WAY too busy!

My Favorite Hat!

"What's all that brightness? It puts me in a MOOD!"

A Match?

"I can't seem to find a matching pair."

Confession: I've been neglecting the laundry and it's been a bit of a mix-match household. Ben always has a quiet, humorous way of pointing out the obvious!

(that may be the only blue baby sock we own!)

Today's Forecast!

"Rain Changing to Showers"- King 5

Does that mean anything more than rain?

Adventurous Detour!

On our way home from Canada, we noted that the border crossings were a 95 minute wait! Umm, No Way! I was not going to venture into that length of a crossing with two little ones in the back seat. So, I took the last exit before the border and we went to White Rock, BC. It was a gorgeous morning and turned out to be REALLY FUN! We walked along the shore, wrote our names in the sand, walked the wharf and saw TWO trains go by! Finally we ended it at a sweet coffee shop munching yummy treats. When we crossed the border 2.5 hours later, we waited 17 minutes! A Perfect Detour!

CoCo was mesmerized by the waves. I admit to using a bribe to lure her away!

The train was so close you could almost (but not quite) reach out and touch it!

Simply Spectacular to a two year old!!!

Canada (sepia tone)

With daddy away, the girls will play!

Ben left Wed for a ski vacation and we gals all took a road trip to Canada!

Loads of chatter, eating, stories, cars and trucks, legos, swimming, walks and feeding ducks!

Graci's becoming quite a silly goose!

Nine+ Months!

Nine months and growing!

She is truly interactive now! She's waving, crawling, pulling herself up, says ma-ma & da-da, LOVES eating paper and dislikes baby food?

She loves to chatter and explore with her voice... highs, lows, grunts and groans!

And (to put it in CoCo's words), "Her mommy is her faborite!"
