Olympics and cowboys and girls




The adults watched Olympics while the kids rode Spider, their trusty steed. Adlai sports cowboy boots and attempts to fix the t.v. for us.

Marshmallows, turtles and tigers


Grandma Jan came for a birthday celebration for Adlai's second birthday, bringing power tools and a bear birthday cake. Adlai installed himself next to a paw and methodically munched marshmallows while Kaya and Grandma put on all the "Happy Birthday" candles.


We missed a few face painting events so I decided to take things into my own hands. My first attempt was a My-Little-Pony at Kaya's request. It turned out better than the sea turtle shown here - I must research techniques. Adlai wanted to be a tiger and went roaring away before much paint could be applied to his face.

brain freeze and ice fog


Take a look at Adlai's expression - clearly it is still too cold for smoothies.


Kona and I brave the ice fog for a mid-day walk.
