GIRL TALK

This evening out of the goodness of his heart, dad went to the grocery store for mom to get her prescription filled. Mimi went along for the ride. Here is a portion of our conversation:

Mimi: Hello mom.
Mom: Hi baby.
Mimi: Mom, can I tell you something?
Mom: Sure, what is it?
Mimi: I love you. (Kissing sounds)
Mom: I love you too, with all of my heart (more kissing sounds)
Mimi: I can feel it in my heart.
Mom: I feel too.
Mimi: Bye mom.
Mom: Ok. Come home soon and tell dad to drive safe ok?
Mimi: OK

These are the moments I live for.

RUDOLPH THE RED NOSE REINDEER

Today when Halliwell come over to the house her face was beet red. Keri asked mom if she got wind burn. It's not really noticable in the picture but trust me there were bright red blotches from the top of her forehead to the bottom of her chinney, chin, chin. Mom did not know what had happened nor did she ask Halle so as not to embarass her. Mom found out later from Halle's mom that Halliwell had taken the lipstick this morning and smeard it all over her face. She was playing that she was Rudolph. That explains this pose and the reason why Blake, Mimi and Halle were pretending that Blake was the reindeer and Mimi was the one in the sled saying "Mush! Mush!". Apparently they all play the game of "Reindeer".

AFTER THE SNOWFALL

This picture was taken about 10 minutes ago. Dad had called to say that it has been snowing like crazy in downtown Seattle and that we are to get around 4-6 inches of snow in our neighboring town.

OUR HOUSE FRONT AND BACK

All day the snow has been falling off and on. After the kids were done playing in the driveway, Keri took them all over to the school to play some more. When they came home mom had some hot ramen waiting for them. A little while later we had some hot chocolate and cookies for a snack. Then around 2:00 was when the snow really started to fall and that's when mom shot these pictures of our house.
