Happy Birthday Mom! Dad and I made the cake, and I blew out the candles while mom smiled for the picture.

Arctic Blast 08 continues... Thanks to several inches of additional snow and ice, we've added to our collection of snowmen. Truthfully, this was supposed to be one really, really big snowman, but the second ball my dad made weighed too much for the entire family to lift. So, we ended up with a snow couple.

A very long hard day in the snow!

Arctic Blast 08 - Snow on the North Coast! Yes! Mush Alki!

I'll do anything for some hot coco!

It's snowing! How do you like our snowman?

Now that I am four years old, I kinda like Santa. Anderson is still too young to understand.

Coast Guard Santa flew in on a Rescue Helicopter! Maybe next year he will come via Buoy Tender???

I'm FOUR! Hommie and Dabi flew out from Virginia to help me celebrate my birthday. We had a modified Pinkalicious party, sponsored by Abby Cadabby. We had a great time!!

Anderson enjoyed our dinner at the Wet Dog Cafe.

Look at the new addition I got for my doll house. Dad says I have a enough space to sell doll condos now! Thanks Grandma Ann and Grandad!

I got a crib for my baby! Thanks Hommie and Dabi.

Hommie's birthday is the day before mine. We had back to back birthday dinners! I helped her open some of her presents.

Anderson playing with Dabi.

Today we drove halfway to California to pick out a Christmas tree. Here we are, ready to find the perfect tree.

Finding the perfect tree requires serious coordination. Good thing my dad and Anderson wore matching reflective jackets!

We found the perfect tree! I helped dad with the saw.

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone! James, Andrew and Stephanie celebrated Thanksgiving with us at our house.
