A Much Needed Break!

This morning my in-laws called and offered to take the girl for the day.  They went up to visit their other grand daughters and thought C would like to go along.  That left Cora and I some time alone. For awhile we were confused and somewhat panicked.  Un-planned alone time...what do we do????

It was raining.  Well, snaining.  Part snow, part rain...it really couldn't decide.  Otherwise we would have totally gone for a hike.  So, we ended up shopping a little and finally going to lunch.  It was good, we just had some appetizers.  Ahi Tuna and some scallops.  It was delicious.

We got home and unloaded our loot, just as we closed the door, the phone rang.  We'd had several glorious hours of talking without interruption and without hearing singing from the back seat.  But it was time to pay the piper.  She arrived about a half-hour later.  And...you know what?  I'd missed her.  I always miss her.

Now we are relaxing as a family.  Tomorrow?  Who knows what tomorrow holds for us!  Perhaps a new adventure.  We will just have to see!

Last Few Weeks

 Chloe and I spent a few days at home...

 Friday night (February 7) it snowed.  She was in pajamas...

 We went out and enjoyed it Saturday.

And then Saturday night it just started snowing.  It came down HARD.  I went for a walk to take pics.  Cora and Chloe came out and met me on my way back.  We played in the snow for awhile and had fun.  I used my flash...

Sunday I dug the cars out.  I decided to put the snow on the yard in a pile.  It worked well, because we used it to go sledding with Chloe...
