Dance, Dance, Dance!

Daddy turned on the music and they danced their little hearts out! Denver's arms swinging and feet stomping was so cute! Amberlyn's boogie was pretty cute too!

Kids in the snow

We went up to Show Low for the weekend. There wasn't any snow there, but we saw lots on our way up there. I told Amberlyn that we could stop on the way back. When we got to Forrest Lakes on our way home, we pulled over to the side of the road and walked back a little. I accidentally parked next to a dead cat, and didn't realize it until we were already out of the car. I told Amberlyn not to get close to it, and just don't look at it. (Ya right.) She was very curious. She wanted to know what happened, how, and what was in its mouth. (There was nothing in its mouth, it had been there a while, and it was it's jaw bone sticking out. Truly disgusting.) We played in the snow for a few minutes. When she asked for her jacket, rather than spending 10 minutes digging it out of the car, I opted to talk her in to leaving, saying we would come back another day, with coats, hats, gloves, and Daddy, and we would make a snow angel. She still wanted to know about the dead cat. I tried to change the subject. A few minutes later, "Mom, tell me about the dead cat." I tried my best to explain that he was in the road, and didn't get out of the way fast enough when a car came. I figured this was as good a time as any to explain the whole "Spirit & Body" thing. She seemed to get it. Anyway, here is a camera phone picture of the kids first time in the snow!
