Happy Valentines Day!

Happy Valentines to you too!  Roman did not want to get his picture taken!

Ruby turns 6 years old!




First CD, Kidz Bop!

New boots

Ruby decided she didn't want to have a birthday party this year because she wanted to donate to animals in Africa and have a "Ruby day".  So, her Dad donated on her behalf to the world wildlife fund and in return, she received stuffed animals to the animals she donated to which were orangutans, giraffes, and elephants.  What a sweet girl!  She wanted to go bowling and out to eat for her "Ruby day".  It was great!

We adopte a new holiday tradition a couple of years ago.  On the winter solstice, we make bird feeders for the birds with pinecones, peanut butter and birdseed. The birds go crazy over the feeders!
