A Reef Romp

Last weekend we went on a tour of residential reef tanks. I think it was for the Boise Reef Society. The tank pictured here is the largest one we visited--almost 300 gallons. Obviously I'm a little shady on details, but it's my story! This tank is relatively new, so there isn't much color to it, but we visited one of the smaller ones listed and it was so beautiful. The whole tank was splash after splash of color.

Bath Time with Grammie

Vita needed a daytime bath, which suited her just fine!

It's Vegas, Baby!

Vita and I met my parents in Vegas for a weekend. We took V to Circus Circus and caught the tail end of an act. We played a game and Vita won a stuffed bear. Vita really enjoyed the Bellagio Gardens and the birds at the Flamingo. We also went to see a lion at MGM, but as usual, Vita was more interested in the people around her. My mom and I were able to sneak away and watch Kris Angell, an illusionist. That was pretty cool. The weather wasn't great, but Vita and I were able to wear sandals and sunglasses, as you can see in the hip pic of V carrying her goods.

Five Months (and counting...)

Well, the maternity pants are out of storage. They are just way more comfortable. Here I am a good week over five months; we can't seem to remember to take pictures to get an accurate month by month glimpse.

Russian Dinner Night

Our third dinner party was this last weekend in Donnelly, at Ray and Alisha's "cabin." The theme was Russian. We had homemade cherry vodka, yummy salmon pockets, two potato dishes (the appetizer couple thought they were side!), and for dessert, honey cake and Russian tea cakes. Vita enjoyed climbing the stairs, finding the cat, and force feeding toys to Greta.

The Two Pictures I Took in MI Before the Camera Died

Yes, I realize she's wearing Christmas pajamas--got to get every last minute out of those clothes!
