A Visit to Nana's

Yesterday Draya and Mommy went to spend the day with Nana while Papa and Daddy put in our new kitchen floor.

Nana & Draya watched birds through Nana's dining room window.

Then Nana showed Draya how to roll out cookie dough.

But Draya found other uses for the cookie cutters.

Finally, Nana read stories to Draya and they went to sleep together in Nana's big bed.

Draya the Carpenter

"Tonight I'm going to help Daddy remove the kitchen baseboards."


"First I'll move this over here..."


"Boy, this sure is a big piece!"


"Hi Mommy! Watch out for the camera strap."


"I'll do a little bit of measuring."


"Here's a chunk that's more my size!"


"But I really liked the bigger one, I'll move it back here...."


"Cowabunga!"

Fun in the Snow on Family Day

On Family Day Daddy & L & P took the girls to Ft. Edm. for a sleigh ride. While they waited in line the girls played in the snow...

L & all 3 girls.

Draya & P.

Draya and G make snowballs.

Draya distracts Daddy with her cuteness...

... and then wings her snowball at him.

I & Draya make a snowman.

Eventually everyone climbs on the sleigh and Daddy and daughter get their photo taken together.

Mommy spent a quiet afternoon at home alone cooking and doing laundry.
