Wildlights at the Zoo

Last night we went to see the lights at the Woodland Park Zoo. It was really, really neat and I think when the kids are a bit older they'll agree. Up past their bedtime, and cold outside, they held up well, but true to form, they were up and at 'em at 6AM this morning.

Sigh.

Merry Christmas 2013

Every year I am amazed at how fast Christmas Day just zooms by. We all spend so much time preparing for this day to come and in the blink of an eye, it's over. We had a wonderful day with each other and our family and I am reminded once again how very fortunate we are. Merry Christmas!

So much love...

...for these two.

In his bed...

...and in her bed. 

FOUR

I had no idea 4 years could go so fast. Happy fourth, my sweet boy.

Oh, he's really into firefighters right now, in case that's not totally obvious. 

Christmas tree shopping

I think I've been subconsciously avoiding taking pictures ever since Maddie dropped my Nikon and broke the lens. I just haven't been taking pictures, which is why I haven't posted much lately. Not to mention this is what I usually get when I say, "okay, everyone smile!"
