After the pizza, it was time for cake. Julia absolutely loved everyone singing "Happy Birthday" to her. Later ...

We had our share of Snowmageddon here over the last few days.
On the first storm last weekend, we got more than 12", but with the blowing snow, it's hard to tell exactly what we got. This is what it looked like after the storm.

We were doing a little shopping yesterday, and I found a pretzel making kit. It included all the yeast and flour needed. At the time, it seemed like something good for Julia and Kaitlyn to do with Grandma and Grandpa B.

Julia and Kaitlyn have a habit of taking stuff out of the cabinet next to the dishwasher and climbing in. Julia calls it her "car", and frequently tells me or Sharon that she's "going to the store" to get groceries like milk, waffles, or bagels.
Today, Julia was doing her thing, ...

Our home builder, THP, laid off all their employees on Monday, leaving us with a half finished community. The local NBC affiliate was in the area yesterday afternoon, looking for people who had placed deposits on houses, only to be left with nothing. (Note to NBC10: they don't live here ...

More gold from Julia...
A few days ago, I had given Julia and Kaitlyn their vitamins. They love it; Sharon or I can just say "Who wants vitamins?" and they jump up and down and run to the kitchen.

Julia: The A and the T and H all broke!
Me: They all broke? Oh, no!
Julia: Yeah... it was an awful scene.
