Afternoon Snow in Portland

Well, we all thought the snow was over for the "big storm" that really didn't happen. Started to get dark and cold and then more snow fell. Hazel and I couldn't resist the big flakes falling and went out to catch them on our tongues. She gave up after only a few and decided to eat the snow off her jacket first, and then moved on to bigger and ?better? - the car! Oh well! She was having fun!!

Morning Snow in Portland

Okay, somethings are just so amazing, even if they happen when it should be getting warm and sunny! This all melted away by 10oo am.

Girl's Roadtrip

2 beautiful flowers...Hazel and Auntie D!

Good catch Auntie Donna!!

Sitting in a shoe in Solvang.

Miniature Horses...sooo cute.

Three generations!

Donna took a day off and we hit the road in her Pony car and went to see some mini horses, a super cool playground, and Solvang for a treat. It was a fun day!

Bread + Ducks = Good Times with Grammy

Waller Park

Took Grammy to the park to play. Enjoyed the sunshine and warm weather...look no winter coat or cap or gloves!!!!

Santa Barbara

Made a little trip to CA to celebrate Mimi's 75th! Hazel and I stayed on a little longer in Santa Maria to visit. Mom and Donna picked us up in SB and we said goodbye to Mimi and Jim.

Dress Up Time

Just an original Hazel Jane ensemble! She has a dress up box with tutus, shiny tops, poofy skirts, princess dresses, tiaras, leis, sashes, aprons, bird wings....you name it! Always fun to see what she comes up with.

Dinner Party

Hazel hosting her first dinner party of 2011 with her friend, Kate. They dined on guacamole and chips and then had burritos, Hazel's favorite! Kate is a sweetie, she was a lot of fun to have over!

Children's Museum

Thanks to Uncles Billy and Tom, Hazel has a membership to the Children's Museum in Portland which she loves. Lots of things to do there and it is dry and warm (a huge plus for me!!!).

Crazy Hazy and Lucy

w

Just some silliness on the couch with her "little sister" Lucy . Wanted to get picture of her with her "up-do" in place but she is a hard one to pin down, even sitting.

New Year's Eve 2010

Just a couple of crazy ladies whoopin' it up on New Year's Eve eating Vodoo donuts, drawing with glitter glue, wearing tiaras! Hazie and I celebrated early with Auntie Karen (Zoey was in Peru with her Daddy for holidays) and Auntie Kathie toasting the New Year at 9 o'clock our time, midnight in Peru. The ladies left and Hazie was still up celebrating at 11!
