Mountain Fun

Nora's favorite thing to do every day when I pick her up from daycare is to sit outside and eat an orange before going home. It's become our ritual, and she waves and greets everybody as they enter and leave the building. She may be running for class president or planning to pursue a career in politics without us knowing; she also likes to kiss her classmates or shake their hands through the fence before leaving!

Some days (not all) it does feel like summer, and Nora enjoys running in the sprinkler both on Fridays at daycare and on the weekends at home.

Relaxing at the park one evening.

We spent Father's Day weekend in a beautiful mountain condo with the Bergs. The weather could have been a bit warmer, but we still had a great time. We went to a BBQ at a friends' house, Nora and Sawyer held hands for support.

And laughed in the grass.

We rode the gondola to the top of Vail Mountain. The kids fueled up on granola bars so they could make it to the top.

Nora, in her (open toed) sandals, playing in the snow.

All the kids, Joe included, throwing snowballs.

Movie night!

The following day we went to a park.

And then Nora was ready to leave...

Coming up next, we've got Nora's (belated) two year photos with a real photographer. She says 'cheeeeeeeeese' quite well, but looks everywhere but at the camera. We'll see if she's in a cooperative mood on Sunday morning...
