Tenth Year, Third Month

Snuggles with Papa...to fortify against the evil creature we were to face...behold!

After forcing the foul beast to flee, we went out for celebratory viands. 

Home again, Dash is a good vice clamp.  Illiyana supervises the work.

"You may begin your house tour, human."

The older kids rooms, followed by our room with the infant crib ready for "Sweetpea."

Yes we keep our newest party members within arms reach initially.  This prevents party wipes.
Master Bath AND a Kid's Bath plus a half bath downstairs...this house was HUGE.

The living/dining room area was tons of fun or the kids to run around in.

Visiting the creatures of the deep before going out for Saint Patrick's Day festivities.



Speaker and his party came to visit.


This dude tore a phone book in HALF with his bare hands...look out.

Kitty Love!

Second Month of the Tenth Year

Staying toasty inside while the snow falls outside.

Didn't start out too bad.

However not too long into it, and it became more and more evident this was going to be one amazing blizzard.


Even after the loss of power we stayed warm and cheerful.


Snowmageddon didn't slow this Party down.  Sunlit loved it.

So beautiful



Hummingbyrd treks out into the white wonderland.


After digging out the Dragon, we helped the minions.

Not many chances one gets to throw their Minions into the ground.

Hickory did not miss this great opportunity.

Dash playing "King of the Mountain."

Now that the power is back, time to do some cleaning.  Papa and Dash try out his new vacuum.

He watches carefully to get good form and coverage.  Papa teaches well.

Grins is somewhat less enchanted with haircuts...although Dash loved watching the cartoons at Cartoon Cuts.


Everyone is playing, minions, wildlife, and everyone.

Time to head out to the Big Blue Wet thing.

Time for some official stuff.

Dash being Dashing.

Grins being Great.

Everyone being amazing.

All looking forward to the upcoming arrival of our newest party member.

No really, we are excited about it.  See we have roses full of love for him or her.

Wait.  Did you just... Um, no, we just have the flowers because they're pretty.  Ignore him.
