Lena and her red petticoat

It took her a while to warm up to it. Oh and a little candy too :)

Lena is 2

omg where did the time go? It seems like she was just born. Her party was Sunday and was so caught up I did not even get the camera out till after the cake was cut *gasp* I did manage to snap a few quick ones of Matt and Lena playing with some bubbles. We were trying to coax her out of her new Barbie jeep. She had been in it all day. It was so tiring because she cannot steer. So she goes till she runs into a fence or tree then we have to go turn her around.

the aftermath of her Hello Kitty cake. I wish I had taken a picture before it was cut :(

Meet Angus! He is the cutest little tank! He is younger than my daughter, but weights 2 times more than she does! I think he looks like a Gap model in these

My dads rocket

Last month we were able to go see my dad's ashes blasted into space. It was a beautiful day and know my dad was there too. It was hard, the desert is not an easy place to watch after kids. The whole launch lasted 15 minutes. They actually lost the rocket for a few minutes. Here are a few images from that day
