my little princess

Audrey's favorite birthday party. Monkeydoo's is such a fun spot. She made a tutu, earings and had a fun makeover...a little girls dream come true

my bloody pulp

We tried for so long to get this first baby tooth out. With daddy's help, it finally gave up the fight. There was a little blood involved but it was worth it. Audrey is on her way to adulthood.

my reluctance

Audrey wanted and got a shorter a-line hair cut. I was conflicted on cutting her hair b/c it has taken 6 years for it to finally grow out. Plus she has given herself a couple of very frightening hair cuts. Her hair was finally long, braidable, and full...but she wanted a new style. It turned out rather cute. She is turning into such a pretty girl. She decided to give her cut off hair to Jane, so she would not be a baldy baby anymore.

my ist pony-hawk

Crazy hair day at school. We did a fun pony-hawk on Audrey and Sadie wanted to be like her sister.

SNOW!!!! It is always a lovely day when it snows.

my foul fowl

The river front in K-town, should be an asset to our community. It should be a draw to its people and those who travel through our small little town. Instead the river has become a slightly frightening, murky place. Perhaps there is to much "night-time" recreation, an overuse of the men's bathrooms, or maybe a body or two has washed up on the shore...but, there is a place where the fowl have taken over. They breed there, defecate there, kill there, die there, swim there, and possibly mutate there...and we go there to feed them day old bread. These geese and ducks see you coming and flock around you until you are completely surrounded, squawking for your crumbs. Some have missing eyes, legs, or other parts...are they rabid? possibly. Have they been exposed to too much radiation from Hanford? Possibly. It is a very uneasy feeling, these fowl outnumbering and surrounding you. I now understand the full importance of the Hitchcock movie "Birds"...

I can see the apprehension in Sadie's face and in her body language...I do the same thing. Imagine a feathered created that is as tall as you, that weighed approximately as much as you, and that had an extremely loud guttural squawk and missing patches of feathers...these are the creatures of my nightmares....Here Sadie...go give this beast some bread and hope it doesn't take your fingers with it...

But, of course, the children had fun...
