Card of Christmas Past

Thanksgiving has just passed and we actually managed to get our Christmas card created and ordered! Like, before December 20th...without having to pay $30 for expedited shipping...It's nothing short of a Christmas miracle! We are hoping it will make people laugh and smile as much as this one from last year (which I forgot to post). Since joining Instagram, I've been lazy about updating the blog. New Years resolution.

Movie Night!!!

Mum is away for a conference so I'm treating my girls to a slice of classic cinematic excellence with a side of homemade popcorn.

On to Chicago.

Since the news of her Mum's new job with the University of Illinois, Ferniechick has been getting bombarded with questions from the press - "Won't you miss living the Northwest?!", "What about the mountains...camping, hiking?" "Will you miss the ocean?", "Aren't you disappointed that you aren't moving to New England?!". She remained cool and expressionless as she repeated just four words: "We're on to Chicago."

Khaleebe Mother of Pteranodons

This is what happens when your kid's interest in dinosaurs equals your obsession with Game of Thrones. Phoebe turned 3 years old this weekend and has usurped her mother as "Queen of the House". Phoebe...er...Khaleebe is a kind and sweet ruler for the most part, but when it comes to bedtime she can become as unhinged as King Aerys "The Mad King" himself.
