PJ Pictures

Last night Sophie and Olivia were quietly reading their bedtime stories to each other. They looked so precious. Olivia realized that I had the camera out, so she started hamming it up. Sophie quickly joined in on the fun. I was asking them if they really cleaned up in the bath or if their feet were stinky. (I think they passed the test!) And the last one is blowing raspberries.

Our kitchen

After spending months pouring over possible designs for our kitchen, and even getting a black eye in the process of installing it, I am reaping the benefits. I love our kitchen. It came out just right, and I think it looks an awful lot like I thought it would. I can't wait to have our house warming party so that I can put both ovens to good use. We're still working on picking the right backsplash, but I think we've decided. Just another project in the long list.

An oldie but a goodie.

Just cleaning up old files, and I found this.

Sophie's Triathalon

Sophie finished 5th overall for her age group and first for the 7year old girls! She also got the fastest swim time. I asked her if she wanted to do it again next year, and it seems to be a tradition. Hopefully Matt and I will get our act together for next year too.

LA county fair

This year Sophie entered some of her artwork for the county fair. She got a first and second place! Her mobile is melted crayons and the tree is acrylics.

Welcome to high speed internet....

Waiting for her triathalon...I'll post the results in a blog...

Before the county fair parade.

I think Olivia was buying hamburgers from Sophie. I don't know why she was wearing goggles.

first day in our new house

Finally I feel connected to the 21st century again. I can't do much surfing at work, and today (for my birthday) we got internet whoo hoo! I'll start posting furiously.

Princess of Cool

Just another day in the life of a nut!
