Guess Who's 6

Yes, our little girl "Moodle" is now more than one hand. Her party this year was with friends at home and of course there was the igloo cake with penguins. It turned into an ice cream cake because it fell in the middle and mom had to improvise. But all turned out great, see for yourself.

Mandy has had many firsts this year. Here are just a few: kindergarden, reading and skiing. Swimming in Lake Tahoe is also a favorite on her list. Happy Birthday Sweetheart!

Our new furry friends....

The children received an early Christmas present from some cousins, Werner & Marina Hahn. They were overjoyed becaue it was enough money to purchase a cage off "craig list" for the chinchillas that our babysitter Alice had offered them. Yes, she gave them 2. So the boys have one and the girls have the other. The chinchillas are both girls - we were not going to get into the breeding business!

Here are some pictures of Rose & Ginger.....
