Maggie and Mr. Wu

Just a couple pics of Mr. Wu. One with Maggie giving him her (in)famous "everything lock".

Our Newest Family Member

Here is Maggie Brown's newest friend - Mr. Charles Wu. According to Maggie, she is his "new mama" and we are his "new family".

PK's trip to Utah & Arizona

PK/Papa recently travelled to Utah & Arizona to visit Bryce Canyon, the North Rim of the Grand Canyon and Zion National Park. The weather was awesome, the trip was a thrill and the group of adventurers were all interesting! Here are some pics.

The Virgin River, Zion.

The tall peak is Angel's Landing - we hiked to the top!

We're going up there??!!?? - The trail to Angel's Landing.

Looking over the edge of Angel's Landing's trail. About 1400 feet straight down.

Bill repelling down the Canyon near Zion. It was well over 110 feet!

So far, this has been a very busy Spring for us. School, playtime, the carnival, and now the pool - Maggie has a full day everyday. To everyone's surprise but her own, Maggie Brown turned 3 last week!!

Maggie's favorite partner to pose with in photos is Sally. Sally is typically an unwilling participant but, will do anything for a treat.

Sharing an icy drink at the Circus with cousin Ian.

Not very pleased to be wearing this dress OR posing for a holiday photo.

The Mudroom Snowman compliments of Grandpa Bill. He was a big hit!

Having a snack at her table in the kitchen.

A familiar pose for Maggie...sleeping. There's always a duck nearby, sleeping or not.

Halloween with Ad...Minnie Mouse and Wonder Woman knocking down doors for candy.

Somehow Maggie convinced Sally to share a pillow with her and watch Mickey Mouse.

A Post For KK

We had some fun being silly this weekend. This is a big red chair near the boardwalk around the pond, she couldn't take her eyes off of it.

We took the Tram to and from our hotel to the shops, who knew a Tram is all it would take to get this kind of reaction!?

Maggie and Papa on the Tram, a little more subdued.

We spent a lot of time in and around the pool. Even with SPF 50, she's working on quite a tan this summer.

Maggie was the hit of the lobby which does double duty as the bar. There was a one-man-band there, Tony, who played a few songs for her. I think the lollipop probably helped up the excitement factor. We all slept really well this night! I love this photo, they are such a pair.
We hope you have a good week at school and had a good weekend in Tampa. We're trying to figure out how to have a visit with you as soon as possible! xoxoxo

To say that Maggie is curious is an understatement. The only thing she has more of than questions are curls. Her curiosity is the source of much entertainment in our house though so, we hope she keeps it up. Maggie starts 'school' this week and as you may notice she has quite a keen fashion sense so, we aren't worried about her dressing herself on school days.

Her imagination is almost as endless as her questions and her constant companion, Lambie, has suffered through many long, one sided conversations in Maggie's crib. Here Lambie is going for a ride, we're not sure the destination but, they are going in style.

Recently we had a solid week of rain...one day we just opened the garage door and watched for something to do!

When the sun finally came out, we went over to Addison's house and played with all of her outside toys, including the pool and the ATV.

Ahhhh, sugar! Curly did several laps around the house after this cupcake.
