Don't grow up

"Mommy! Mommy!" (Lily calling from her bed)
"Yes?"
"Mommy, I need the microphone!"
"Why do you need the microphone?"
"I need the microphone because I need to sing!"
"You will have to sing without the microphone tonight. And sing quietly because Beatrice is sleeping." (I turn the light out and show her whisper singing)
Lily whisper sings, "Twinkle twinkle little star..."

Easter on Bainbridge

Giddy ferry boaters

Lily all dolled up! We actually think she got a kick out of wearing a flouncy dress.

Egg hunt, country style.

The loot!

Lily's is yelling at the chickens...

Forest walk

From 2014 to 1820?

Happy happy Bea

Giving Walrus's new swing a go

Daddy is loosing Tug-o-war!

We were so pooped that we let the girls drive us home.

Put your party pants on!

No more fancy restaurants! Family pizza night is where the party is!

Followed by "fresents" and carrot cake. The girls were oh-so-happy!

A proper send-off

I had to travel to Des Moines for work last month and Beatrice made sure I knew I'd be missed. Such sweet peas!!!

Cocktail enthusiast?

In her usual fashion, L was on fire during our family night out to a Mexican restaurant.

She LOVED the cocktail menu. What does this say.......?

Offering Daddy some suggestions.

Hunting for fairies

Bea peaking into nooks and crannies for fairies on Bainbridge Island.

Sledding on the pass

The snow and wind made our sledding experience slightly challenging, but we still had fun.

Snow angels...or maybe we just collapsed.
