Hair Salon

These are actually from Christmas break. Sean was supposed to have a play date but his friend was sick. So I loaded up with books, snacks and other things and brought him to my hair appointment. Of course, once the snacks were gone, all he wanted to do was play with my iphone. I think he took about 50 photos. But he did capture a rare moment of my hair looking rather fluffy....something I can never recreate once I leave the salon. And , here is one of Sean's self portraits....

Mt.Hood on a perfect sunny day

This is Sean and Jim, skiing down the My-Ty trail which has been our family favorite. We actually skied as a family last weekend. Sean made it for about 5 runs and then he was ready to eat lunch. Jackson, however, could ski for hours and hours.

A week with Ozzie

Ozzie is the kindergarten class pet. He just finished a week with us and Sean was in  charge of recording all his activities in a journal. We kept Ozzie very busy and he even got to go to the dentist with Sean! (No cavities, by the way...). Happy MLK Day!

Paper snowflakes

I went a little overboard with the paper snowflakes just before Christmas. Once I start making them, I can't stop...it's almost like it was when I was knitting ( for that one month back in 2002) You get in to a rhythm when cutting out the designs and it becomes a very relaxing process. Unfortunately Talus has shredded a few of them from pouncing on the window whenever the UPS man stops by to deliver a package. He obviously does not appreciate them in quite the same way as I do..

Happy 2010!

And a very special welcome to Colin Locke Davitt! A new year and a new nephew and cousin!
