SNOW STORM IN PORTLAND......

Megan and Sarah were both excited to see the snow and also to play in it.

When I got home from work Megan was at Grandma and Grandpa's house. She informed me she needed her boots, pants, jacket and gloves PLEASE!!!!!

I was happy to see that the snow clothes I bought her were actually going to be used this year.








Megan's first snowman. Actually mommy made it and Megan watched to make sure I was doing it correctly.










The snow lasted through the night to Megan's happiness. So she and Grandpa walked to the Deline Park by their house to play in the snow. By the picture you can tell mommy was not there since Megan is enjoying eating snow off the ground. YUCK!!!









When is the idle time to get Grandpa with a
snowball........


When he's busy taking your picture!

Valentines Day!!!





We decided to go to the beach for Valentines Day!
It was nice to be on the beach for a whole 10 minutes.
Between rain showers and 44 degree high temp.



So we went to Seaside to ride the carousel. You can't see me in the pictures
but I was very green in the process of taking the pictures. Enjoy!!

Megan and Friends Discover that Little Tike Cars
are not just for driving............

But BUMPER CARS!!!!!

Going feet first down the slide....

"That is feet first, right?"

Gracefully going through the obstacle course..........

Full Steam ahead!

Made it to the end!


After all this fun the kids took an early nap. And I am not surprised!!

Megan Photographic Skills

Lane was up visiting Megan and we all decided to take the dogs for a walk.
I brought the camera along to get some pictures of Megan and Lane.
Megan informed me that "No, I take the pictures."

SOOOOO.... Here are Megan's pictures.


Picture of Mommy and Grandpa.


This is the new addition to the family, Roxie.
Megan keeps calling her "my Roxie"


I have no idea why she wanted to take a picture of the water bowl that we bring for the dogs.



This is a picture of Lane, but the sun was setting behind him.

Portland Children's Museum

Yesterday we took Megan to the Portland Children's Museum with her cousin, Aiden. They had a wonderful time! Here are a few of the pictures.

Megan playing doctor...


In the water table area (we usually leave it for last but the kids overpowered us and we did it second)


At some point we lost our photographer but she found us again just before we left. We were playing in the Bob the Builder area where Megan picked flowers and vegetables and carried them around in the wheelbarrow.


Here's some video of the kids in the water play area having a blast!
