Wearing shades

We are hoping for some warmer days full of sunshine.

Guess who likes The Who?

Unfortunately I cannot get the video loaded for this but during the half-time show of the Super Bowl, Avery started dancing to the song "Who are you?" by The Who. We did not encourage her to dance, she just heard it and started bouncing around. It was very cute and maybe someday I will figure out how to get videos off the camcorder onto the computer.

What is this on your face?

We ventured out of the house yesterday after being stuck inside for 8 days. Daddy took us to see Uncle Travis at Grandma and Grandpa's. Our driveway is mostly uphill and daddy says the car won't make it up so we rode with him in the truck. Uncle Dirck is home on leave for 3 weeks so he drove in from Virgina to visit for a few days. He had more snow at his house, they had 55 inches. We won't complain about our 13 anymore. Avery was very interested in his beard and tried to pull it off. She was a little shy at first but she warmed right up to him. He even brought birthday presents, since he will be back at work on her actual birthday. She found 12 pairs of her favorite puma socks and cute clothes and even a Tigger hat and gloves in her bag. These little puma socks are the ONLY ones that will stay on her feet.

"And she laid there like a slug"

Does this line ring a bell with anyone? If not, this is a line from one of our favorite movies "A Christmas Story". There is a scene where Randy falls down in the snow and he is so bundled up that he can't move.

This was Avery's first time playing in the snow, she was more interested in watching the huge flakes fall all around her.

It's been a year

Humm I think I was snowed in last year about this time. Last year was worse though because of the ice. I at least have a little friend this time around that keeps me busy.
