Snow in Southern California

After 4 days of rain we woke up this morning to snow. Brianna came in my room this morning and I had her look out the window and she was so excited she gasped and said, "snow." Then she said, "It snowed after Christmas?" I guess she didn't know it can snow after Christmas. I was afraid it would melt off so I took her out before I went to work and we threw a few snowballs at each other and then made a little snowman. Tonight when I got home our snow was gone but our snowman is still there (well part of it anyway). The mountains and hills were beautiful. Today I looked out the window of my office and saw a rainbow. Behind the rainbow we could see the mountains covered with snow. I think that is the first time I ever saw a rainbow with snow behind it. It was gorgeous but of course I did not have a camera to take a picture.

Kierra is 2 years old

Kierra turned 2 on January 8th. I was off work that day and got to spend the day with the girls. Kierra's birthday started with waking up to a soft pink dog from Uncle Alan, Aunt Melissa, and the girls. She loved it as you can see in the pictures. Then we got dressed and started out on many errands that Mommy had to get done on her day off. Just before lunch we picked Sammie up from school and went to McDonald's for lunch and time to play in the playland. The girls all had a wonderful time playing then it was home for a nap and quiet time for mom. Kierra had a good day. I just can't believe my baby is 2. We still have to have her official party but I had to work that weekend after her birthday and we just haven't gotten around to having a party. Thankfully she is to little to notice and will enjoy the party whenever it is.
