Another Fun Afternoon at the Zoo

Abby, Sarah, and Katie


Katie LOVES giraffes.


Sarah's favorite animal at the zoo is still the big horn sheep.

One of my favorites

Abby's favorite animal was the koala bear, another of my favorites, but we didn't get a picture.

Feels Like Winter

We woke up to a couple of inches of snow yesterday morning.

The kids finally got to play in it this afternoon. (Abby)

First Snow!

It's not much, but it is still fun!

Here are some little portraits that Lisa did of the girls a few years ago. She has a variety of work that you can view at Kiki & Polly or check out her blog under the "Blogs We Follow" tab below.

Twinkle, Twinkle

Katie's favorite song to sing is Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star. She and her sisters frequently request that we sing it to them as we tuck them in at night. Well, last night Katie had a rough night and spent the last couple of hours sleeping in the bed with me and Kyle. We were awakened early this morning to Katie clearly singing the entire Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star song to us in her sleep. Kind of strange but much more appreciated than the loud "NO!" that she screamed in our ears just a short time before her sweet song. Maybe she has a future in music?? :)
