Snow No-Likey

Snow no-likey. I guess when both parents are brought up in the South, it's just not in the genes. She wanted nothing to do with the freezing white stuff that Mommy and Daddy were trying to sell her. Wouldn't even stand in it. Part of the problem might be the snow gear. It greatly hinders ones movement and balance and when you are new to those things anyway . . . well see for yourself. Clark looks about as thrilled as Clara.
Oh well, at least the pink leopard coat is cute, right?

Funny Face



Clara just recently added this facial expression to her repertoire; I'm not sure if she is concentrating or what but I had to get it on film.

Thanksgiving 2010

It has been over a month since my last post. Shameful; especially since I have so many pictures to post. Our Thanksgiving weekend was so much fun. We were actually home alone on Thanksgiving and so I had the chance to make my first ever Thanksgiving feast (turkey and all). Everything turned out beautiful and totally edible - delicious actually. I was so proud I took a picture . . . tilt your head because I can't figure out how to flip this thing righ-side-up. The Friday after Thanksgiving we made our way down to West Virginia to see our "Mountain Momma" and the rest of the Rogers. A nice neighbor came by and took lots of family photos.



I think my favorite series of photos was with the little girls . . . Clara is still not smiling even though Mommy is in front of her making a fool of herself.
WHACK!!!!

Sad and yet, so hilarious.


We got a nice photo of our little family - expect to see it in our Christmas card (if I ever get to Christmas cards).
Grandma bought her three granddaughters matching dresses and on Sunday we dolled-up the cousins and tried again with the pictures. There was no whacking or crying or smiling (at least from Clara) but they all looked pretty and festive in their sweet little dresses.


I just love this precious little girl!
