My Scary Day!

Ugh! When they drive off in my car together!

Tante Visits!

Thanks for a GREAT visit!

As you can see, it's always great fun when my sister comes to visit!
She brings such joy to the girls and she's a ton of help to me!

Discovering Self Portraits!

So, I let her loose with a camera. She seemed initially fascinated to shoot a photo of just about anything. But it didn't take her long to discover a most interesting subject...

HERSELF!

Yep! Eyes, Hands, Feet, Legs, Bummy... you name it, we've got it documented in some sort of blurry image!

And every fuzzy image is JUST as funny as the last!

Schoko Memo!

How fun is this?

A chocolate memory game! Yahoo!

Yup! There's a square of chocolate in each wrapped animal square! Each night we've played the game and the winner picks 2 sets of chocolate to share. It's the simplest dessert ever!

Thanks, Oma!

(Graci got lucky with her first pick above)

Green Eggs and Ham!

Today was St. Patty's day!
The girls had friends over this morning. While they sat on the couch and read Dr. Seuss's Green Eggs and Ham I grilled our own green eggs and ham! The kids were pretty excited and I thought they'd eat them for sure. Well, we got mixed reviews!

DELICIOUS!

"YUCKY!" (her exact word)

I made corned beef and cabbage with Irish soda bread (yummy) for dinner. Later in the evening, these three formed a band! It was pretty cute how they played along to the Irish music!
Super fun filled day!

Purple Polka Dot Boots

Entered the living room and found my two sweet gals stuffed into my boots! :)

Girls Will Play!

While Ben was away skiing, we went on our own road trip up to Canada! Except for Graci's major tummy upset, we had a fabulous time!

A floating bear.

Just want to hug and kiss that girl... prunes and all!

Diane took the girls one morning to feed ducks.

Upon Ben's return, CoCo was telling him her trip highlights and explained that swimming and feeding were her favorites. She got to swim with Claire and Graci & feed both Claire and the ducks.

"But Daddy, it's not okay to feed Claire the duck food."

Love!

Everything about it...

the curly pig tails, the spotted bum, rain boots and the knee high sock! G has learned to remove her pants and prefers a life of the BARE minimum!
