Close It Down, Anabelle!

Well, it's finally happened: after almost four years and 770 posts, I'm shutting down Anabelle's blog. But don't worry — I've started a new joint blog for both Anabelle and Will called Alligators and Elephants. Update your bookmarks and visit today!!

Outdoor Fun in the Sun & Snow

We finally got some more snow this weekend so we tried to take the kids out sledding, only they were more interested in playing on the snow-covered playground equipment. I didn't get any pictures of it, but Anabelle shot out of the tube slide like a rocket.



We also enjoyed the brisk morning air at an outdoor event the kids' daycare organized. It was freezing, but it was fun to get out and walk around Centennial Lakes Park! Afterwards Anabelle wanted to go on the skating rink but I was too cheap to rent skates, so we just slid around on our boots.

Reading to Will

Will hasn't been feeling well lately so Anabelle's been reading to him:


"Tonight's story: Interrogation techniques to use on daddies!"


"Uh, Anabelle, I'm kind of having trouble seeing the pictures..."


"Well, Will, it would help if you look at the book instead of the camera!"


"And now, Will, I want you to walk around the room with this book balanced on your head!"

Chuck E. Cheese's Would Be A Great Place If It Weren't For All The Contagious Diseases Floating Around


"I feel like such a princess riding in this coach!"


"This ride would be better if Clifford did tricks like flip or roll over."


"When I turn sixteen, I want a jeep just like this one."


"This ride feels like it's been going on for hours!"


"The light at this intersection always takes forever."

"Hey, Sophie, want some help opening your presents?"


"Tea time!"


"Mmm, it's cake, it's ice cream, it's ICE CREAM CAKE!!!"


Happy Birthday, Sophie! Will wishes he could have been there, too!!
