Water+Plastic=Animals?

Anyone ever played with grow capsules? Addy is fascinated by them. I bought them to put in her bag of potty training rewards and they have been her favorites.

She will stand and carefully watch each capsule melt and announce when each animal is "born."

Colton's First Car

Colton has a new job and a new car. Colton just started working for LPR Construction in Wyoming. John bought him his very own car so he could commute to work. Like father, like son.

This is a '97 Nissan Maxima with leather seats, wood paneling, power everything, Bose stereo system, sun roof.....it is very nice and Colton seems thrilled with it.

December

After much prodding, begging, and threatening by my parents I have decided to get caught up with my blogging! I now have a wonderful new computer that allows me to download 100 pictures in 10 seconds versus 30 minutes (thanks John!).

At the beginning of December Addy and I attended Disney on Ice: Worlds of Fantasy in Denver. It was during one of our many snow storms this season so I decided to stay at a hotel after the show so that we did not have to drive home in the middle of the night on ice. Addy had a blast. I think she may have enjoyed the hotel part the most though.

The show was on a Sunday night and with the snow I think a lot of people opted to stay home.

Addy and I made salt dough ornaments. Lots of fun!

Addy and I made sugar cookies.

Addy came to visit me at work. She loves coming to my work, putting on a headset and rolling up to a computer. You can't get her to leave!

We took Addy to see the Denver Zoo Lights for the first time.

More to come.....
