Baby, Minnie, and Abby

Our friends who moved to Colorado a few weeks ago came down for a little visit, and we were so excited to see them. We went to Cafe Rio then came back to our place and Claire got to hold baby Drake. She was in awe that we were letting her hold this real live baby.
The next day it snowed...alot. So I let Claire sit outside on our porch and watch the "nnooo" (She can't say her S's yet)
The next day we went down to Springville to celebrate Abby's 7th birthday. But first the Disney Store was having this ridiculous sale on costumes, so Sandie found this Minnie Mouse one that we are hoping will still fit Claire for next Halloween. And then Grandma Diane came home with the yellow heels to match (they are so dang cute but fit Claire right now) So we put her in the costume and she was so adorable walking around. She even left the ears and gloves on!

Abby wanted to have Fondue as a part of her birthday celebration. So we had a cheese course, then meatloaf (according to Abby- the best food ever!), then some chocolate fondue for dessert. Good choice Abby it was all delicious!
Grandma Diane and Abby. Notice the authentic 1970's fondue pot. My mom got it as a wedding present and its now back in style!
And here's little miss Claire stuffing her face with rice krispies and bananas

She cracks me up... the faces on that child. Hopefully she keeps it up then you will always know exactly what she's feeling.
