Fun with the Thomas train set!

Laughing with gram while standing on the window seat!

Christmas!!! I think she's happy about this present :)

Towers o' fun!

Skyping with Aunt Nilanthi, Uncle Michael, and Liana! Emily
was the most into it and would put her nose up to the screen!!

First time building a snowman!!! Rachel ate the snow
while Emily was a little more helpful :)

Look at that concentration!

Having fun with her new snow boots! Thanks Pop & Gram!

What IS this stuff!?? I've never seen so MUCH of it!!

Walking on it feels weird!

Our "frosty" :)

Proud of "her" creation :)

Adventures at Chuck E Cheese! That's right, daddy
hopped up on the horse with her!

Riding the bob the builder ride!


Our cuties in the princess carriage :)

High tea at the Brown Palace!!

Rachel was interested in the piano player!

Bucket head....er...Rachel :)

The girls got smurfs at Build a Bear!

Emily had never even seen a smurf before this, but was
adamant that was what she wanted and LOVES him still! :)

Rachel checking us out of the store :)

Storytime with the new rainbow book from Gram!

Gram also set up a special hideaway! Too fun!

Plus there was a slide INSIDE!!! I think these girls just

might be spoiled :)

At the Denver Aquarium!

Not sure Rach could get any closer :)

Emily waving to Pop!

Rachel fascinating by this bubble!

Handprints for the grandparents :)

Rachel loved the singing Rudolph!!

Ever tried to get two toddlers to pose for a nice photo?? This was
the closest we got to a nice photo of Pop and Gram and the girls :)

Phew, that was a long post! But lots of fun photos :)

My Valentines :)




Using the blocks to make roads for the cars!!


The window sill worked as another "road"!


Emily had a different plan for the window sill! Here she
is posing with her masterpiece :)


Beautiful girls....




Fun with grammy!!


Grammy races! :P


A little down time for drawing. :)

The girls thought it was fun to set up the chairs and
play catch this way!! :)

Then figured out they could kick too! Silly girls :)

I looked over and saw two mermaids in the air.....via
Emily's TOES!!! :P She cracks me up :)

Rachel got an early birthday present! A new bed!! She
was so in love with Emily's twin that we got her one too!

They were dressing up in necklaces, hats and sunglasses
and then Emily tried to help Rachel with her shoes!

A visit with grandma means another repair session
with Emily's favorite blanket :)

Aunt Tara, Kendra and Taz came too! Rachel decided
to give him a pet!

Snuggle time.... :)

The girls loved Kendra's hat!!! :) Say cheese!

Our trip to Denver!

More pictures to come as pop and gram took many more than us!

But here are a few :)

Waiting for the PLANE!!!

Watching a movie on the way! (It was not always quite
this calm, but hey I had a minute to get a picture!)

The girls were excited just to have stairs in the house!

Having fun in the couch pillows!!

Me too! :)

Taking it easy with Pop! :)

Gram had put out bath crayons for us!! WAHOO! :)

The girls loved "playing" the piano!!

At the outdoor Christmas light display peeking
in one of the elf windows!

Pop and Rachel during the walkthrough lights section!
It was COLD out...brrrrr :)

While there we also went to look at some fancy Christmas
light displays, played on the rides at Chuck-E-Cheese,
went to the library for story time, enjoyed the fish at the
aquarium, had Christmas with lots of fun presents, built

smurfs at BuildABear, played on the slide incessantly at the
house, ate plenty of good food, showed off for Great

grandparents Cecy and Ralph, chased the puppy with baby
strollers, and gave lots of love to Pop and Gram :) What

a great trip!

Waiting for the plane to go home...awww, we don't wanna... :)
