Christmas

We had such a wonderful Christmas this year. Heather got a new camera on Christmas Eve from Sean and started taking pictures. Here are a few from Christmas morning. Santa brought the girls a new kitchenette. Some favorite gifts were a guitar, a barn/tent thing, multiple pandas, and Super Why dolls. It was so fun to watch the girls this year. I know next year will be fun too. We hope you all had a very Merry Christmas.

Snow Day!

We actually had snow today! It was real snow. It was coming down in buckets. We were so excited we decided to get out and play in it. Annabeth was shaking she was so cold by the end of our play time. It was great and I hope we can get out and play in it some more.

Animal Magnetism

Last Wednesday I was almost certain I had found my true love, again. While I have always known Sean is my true love, I had doubts for the first time. He was tall, with big dark eyes and a gentle demeanor. He was social and good with the girls. Luckily for Sean, this lanky beauty is a giraffe. His name is Kiva. I met him when we were lucky enough to have a private feeding at the Houston Zoo. We spent 30 minutes with him and a young male named Miles. Miles was adorable. He let the girls get close, until they moved quickly. Then he would just walk away. Giraffes are fun to feed because there is no fear of being bitten. Giraffes don't have top teeth. Their tongue is 18 inches long and is as nimble as a finger. They weren't too slimy either. Kiva would come down and nuzzle you with his face. Apparently he loves women and would do this on command. I loved it. It was so sweet and fun. Hopefully we will be able to do this again someday. It was a real joy.
