chocolate fest

It was a really nice day for the Chocolate Fest in downtown Fairfax. We had a big batch of tokens to collect some treats!

 

mosaic

We are so lucky to have Mosaic so close by... and great place to relax on a nice day or get together for a big Mom spa day...

super reader

 Continuing the Super Reader tradition with Keaton's turn on the Jumpotron at the basketball game :)

zoe is one

Can't believe this sweetie just turned one on Jan 18th... They say she is 15 years old in dog years already, but I can't believe it!

green springs

A walk at Green Spring garden for this sweet pup's birthday... plenty of chances to "go fast!"

 

hippo for xmas

This year's edition premiered for Gran's bday...

tidbits

Love this Beauty and the Beast cast at the first run through - Aiden as Gaston and Keaton as Chip - check out that cut teacup costume I rigged up ;)

Snow coming down from the ceramics studio - I just kept throwing as the big flakes dropped.

That Dude in his completed Dude sweater complete with a White Russian. ;)

And then that same guy looking like a skeptical Chris Hemsworth aka Thor 

Hanging out with the neighbors from that lines hanging from their trees.

Hiking adventure puppy!

Trying out the yummy food court at HMart

This guy had an infection on his thumb - with a very dramatic bandage from the urgent care!

dude sweater

This sweater from the Big Lebowski was not ready for Xmas gifting, but it sure did bring on some laughs.

It does eventually get finished ;) 

new years

Poor Aiden was sick and J stayed home with him... but that didn't keep Keaton and I from having a great time with a big batch of neighborhood friends and the photo booth ;) We both made it to midnight!
