Baby Steps

I am still struggling with the photos a little. I'll get it together soon. My next move is a CD of the remaining vacation. This will include pictures of others besides the kids. In those there are some great photos of the Monarch Sanctuary. A bystander deemed a photo by Pete a "National Geo" shot. I'm pretty sure he was a Bostonian. He was very Sculley. Hans really enjoyed the tours when I explained to him that California used to be Mexican territory. He felt so at home. Next step for him would be to learn a little Spanish but instead I have looked into some Folklorico dancing. Look at those outfits! What great, great weather.
Now we are back to jackets and hats. We all complain but boy do we love it.

Especially monkey head. He cannot keep from stomping through piles of snow.

Light post I know, but what I really want to know is, what do you like about where you live? Here are my favorite things....
#1. All four seasons.
#2 All the nieces and nephews.
#3. Best donuts ever.
#4. Sisters in laws.
#5. All the DI's you can handle.
Short and to the point today, but as I've said, easing back into it. So, let's see how many of you are still around?
