So funny

Annnnnnnnnnd she was still yelling. She is so funny how she wants to make sure that EVERYONE is seeing what she is. "LOOK GRAMPA TRACTOR!"

SO funny! This was the way Lia talked the ENTIRE time we were at the Boat Parade. Her shrill, happy screams cut through the night. I love how she yells "LOOK AUNTIE WORLA!"

Her dialogue is:

LIGHTS! Look! Up! WOAAAAAAAAAAH! Look! Look! LOOK AUNTIE WORLA! Its PRITTY! Ooooooooooh!"

Do you see that glowy thing? That is a guy in a kayak! Super cool. Looked like one of those people who get little balls stuck all over their body for special effects. :)



I was testing out my camera to see if it would take pictures in low light of the Christmas tree, and as I looked at this picture I noticed that all of the Christmas lights look like little hearts! :) I thought that was pretty awesome. :) Or at least, it made me smile. :)

Christmas Boat Parade

Today was a busy day, Christmas wise! :) It was the annual Boat Parade where they light up Boats. Lia LOVED it. She screamed in glee the whole time.

This boat was awesome. But also was sinking. Or the skipper was drunk.



Do you see that silhouette? That's the coast guard or harbor marshall having a talk with the boat owners...

Out of focus. But Davy was happy to be a part of the festivities. :) Isn't he cute? :) Gotta love a fat baby. :)

I think this was my favorite boat. :)

Christmas Parade II

My two children look weird, but whatever. **I** look good! :)




Lia saw this and began to excitedly scream. "ROARY! ITS ROARY!"

The only way they look similar I can think of is the red cap...?


Tia Mia and Davy watching the Woodie cars

Big cool horse!

Christmas Parade

Tia Mia came with us to the Christmas Parade in Santa Cruz and we had a splendiferous time. Lia ate her first candy cane and ADORED it. She was a red sticky mess at the end.

She's very happy. :)

Look at all the ducks! And Lia eating her bread before throwing it. She always does this when she's at Big Duck's house. Its her time honored tradition. She takes a big bite out of the bread before handing it off to the chickens or ducks. :)

Jumping Ducks

Yes, I am mean. I make animals work for their supper. I think whoever was taking the film turned the camera to get a better angle but my darn camera doesn't understand that. :)

There was this GIANT catfish in the pond! I wanted Betsy to wade out and get him.

Feeding the Ducks

A couple weeks ago I got a bee in my bonnet to take Lia to feed ducks. I think it was because I didn't use the heel of a loaf of bread and I immediately thought, "BREAD! DUCKS!" My awesome Mom told me of the perfect park. Lia, Davy, Tia Mia and Auntie B joined us. :)

There were a LOT of ducks...


Can you imagine being Lia's size and having a bird that comes up to your armpit start snapping at what you're holding in your hand?

That duck's pretty brave...

You'll have to click on the picture to make it bigger, but LOOK at that weird duck's feets, directly to the right of Betsy's piece of bread. His feet FREAK ME OUT!! *shudder*
